Free Webinar: Bye Bye Blower Door? Intro to Ultrasonic Air Leak Detector, February 25, 12 pm ET
Event Description
Learn how ultrasound is used to revolutionise how we detect and quantify air leaks in buildings. Empowering contractors and retrofitters to proactively manage airtightness, reducing costly rework and improving building performance. Understand how ultrasound is aligned with blower door and thermographic imaging results, and its unique capabilities to quantify airflow and rank leak severity. No prerequisite knowledge needed.
Lessons Learned -
1) Understand how effective air sealing, as facilitated by ultrasound technology, contributes to healthier indoor environments by reducing pollutants and enhancing air quality.
2) Analyze the role of ultrasound in identifying air leaks, which is vital for ensuring the safety and compliance of buildings with mandatory air pressure tests.
3) Introduce the concept that properly sealed buildings not only enhance energy efficiency but also support the welfare of occupants by creating comfortable and stable living conditions.
