Service Overview

Air Tightness testing is the key feature of any energy efficient building; reducing wasted heat and allowing a building’s atmosphere to be controlled with mechanical ventilation heat recovery units. This helps to create a healthier environment.

Air tightness testing is undertaken to find a building’s air-permeability rating. Air tightness testing is an integral part of Part L of The Building Regulations which needs new buildings to meet specific air-permeability targets.
