Poor Indoor Air Quality

Sometimes, the problem isn’t energy ‘leak’ – it can also be that a property is too ‘tight’, with inadequate air flow and exchange.  Are you suffering from allergy problems?  Do you have rapid dust build up, no matter how often you clean?  These may be signs that you need an energy audit.

We use a blower door as part of our energy audit process, allowing us to measure the airflow in your home or business.  Wikipedia provides an excellent description of a blower door’s capabilities:

 

A blower door is a diagnostic tool designed to measure the airtightness of buildings and to help locate air leakage sites. A blower door consists of a calibrated fan for measuring an airflow rate, and a pressure-sensing device to measure the air pressure created by the fan flow. The combination of pressure and fan-flow measurements are used to determine the building airtightness. The airtightness of a building is useful knowledge when trying to increase energy conservation or decrease indoor air pollution, or control building pressures.

 

In essence, your home or building needs to ‘breathe’ to be efficient, comfortable, and to provide quality air for its occupants.  Otherwise, stale and stagnant air just continues to re-circulate, taxing the performance of your mechanical systems and causing an unhealthy indoor environment.
