Air infiltration testing and duct pressurization testing service

What are they?
Blower doors and duct pressurization devices have become an important tool for high performance builders.

As building codes evolve, more commercial and residential buildings across the United States are being designed to meet standards that reduce air leakage through the building enclosure. Those leakage points cost the building occupants to be uncomfortable and pay high energy costs. New York DOB is requiring buildings to meet the IECC (International Energy Conservation Code) for air infiltration and duct leakage.

The presence of a tighter building enclosure allows for lower utility bills, provides the ability to size mechanicals correctly, improves indoor air quality and reduces issues due to moisture brought in by gaps in the enclosure.

Testing ductwork in residential HVAC systems for air tightness is essential to ensure a home will be energy efficient and comfortable. Tighter ducts help mechanicals perform better by allowing conditioned air to travel to its intended destination. They also keep newly conditioned air from escaping to the outside of the home. New York City and municipal code jurisdictions are including duct sealing and testing requirements for residential new construction.

CHA: Comprehensive Home Assessment
Building performance testing.

Unlike other comprehensive Home Assessments that just think energy savings is important we believe, so is air quality.

We at GJTC test all aspects of your buildings-insulation levels, air leakage, duct leakage and room-by-room air flow testing, heating and ventilation needs as well as carbon monoxide we don’t stop there! All our assessments also include checks for excess moisture problems; radon and use infared thermal imaging technology.

Our Home assessment packages range from a very simple energy audit to complex dynastic testing for extreme building problems.

Energy Conservatory Manometer DG 3/ DG5/ DG700 Yearly Calibration Service
Let Green Jobs Training Center help you keep your equipment in tip top shape. We have “drop off” or “wait for” manometer calibration service. Do not get QA inspected and have an expired manometer. Call for prices and schedules.
