Our blower door system can be set up quite quickly to undertake air tightness testing on PAS2035<\/a> buildings. This means we can quickly ascertain the buildings air leakage rate and let you the results on the same day.<\/p>\n

Basically, our blower door fan mounts into a door-sized housing, that can be adjusted to suit the size of the door frame. We then set up the blower door equipment<\/a> as follows.<\/p>\n

              1. We will temporarily install a blower door fan system (depending on building size) in a suitably placed doorway. If it\u2019s a very large building we may need to use a multiple fan system.<\/li>\n
              2. We then take a series of environmental measurements such as internal and external temperatures as well as barometric pressures.<\/li>\n
              3. We then turn on the fan equipment and take measurements between 25-70Pa in 5Pa increments, recording the pressure differential at each step.<\/li>\n
              4. We then take a second series of environmental measurements such as internal and external temperatures as well as barometric pressures.<\/li>\n
              5. Finally, our technicians will calculate the total air flow required to achieve a pressure differential of 50 Pa, divided by the total building envelope area – this calculation will show leakage rate in m\u00b3\/h.m\u00b2 @ 50 Pa.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                We usually allow two to three hours to complete each air tightness and smoke leakage test<\/a>; however, we can attend site all day if the building looks very leaky.<\/p>\n
