Blower Door Test

A Blower Door Test can help pinpoint areas of drafts and give you a better understanding of how well your home's envelope is performing. Draft stopping or air sealing, as it is referred to in home performance contracting, is the best way to stop uncomfortable drafts, save money, and improve air quality. A Blower door is one of the 3 diagnostic tools used on every Home Energy Audit.
A Blower door can help identify and pinpoint the following problems:
- Dust
- Poor air quality
- High Energy Bills
