Design meeting with the Project Team on site
- A review of existing drawings from an air tightness perspective
- Summarising bullet-point email within 10 working days
- Targeted at establishing an airtight barrier at an early stage
- Targeted at minimising the risk of a final air test fail
Design review of architectural drawings
- A review of up to 30 section detail drawings
- Report and annotated drawings within 7 working days of booking
- Targeted at minimising the risk of a final air test fail
- If working in a portal, relevant drawings to be selected by the client and placed in a folder. All drawings to be in pdf format.
Construction consultancy site inspection with report
- Monitoring of the airtight barriers construction and identifying leakage paths as they rise during construction
- Site Pro Report
- Targeted at minimising the risk of a final air test fail
Pre-test consultancy visit with photographic report
- With or without pressurisation
- Identifies possible leakage paths before the final test so allowing time for site to carry out remedial works before the final test
- Site Pro Report
- Targeted at minimising the risk of a final air leakage test fail
Final Air Leakage Testing of single buildings
- Envelope area calculation included
- To perform an initial air permeability test
- In the event of a fail, to perform localised smoke testing to identify leakage paths as part of the service
- After remedial work by site, to perform an additional air permeability test
- Repeat the process as many times as required or possible within the time allocated on site
- Sitepro fail report, if required or requested, within 7 working days
- Declaration of result / certificates within 7 working days
Final Air Leakage Testing of multiple units on a visit
- Envelope area calculation included
- To perform an initial air permeability test
- In the event of a failure, to perform localised smoke testing to identify leakage paths as part of the service
- After remedial work by site, to perform an additional Whole Building Air Permeability Test before moving on to the next unit
- Repeat the service on the next unit
- Sitepro fail report, if required or requested, within 7 working days
- Declaration of result / certificates within 7 working days
Smoke shaft testing
- Perform air permeability test
- In the event of a fail, localized smoke testing to identify leakage paths included
- After remedial work by site, to perform an additional Air Permeability Test
- Sitepro fail report, if required or requested, within 7 working days
- Declaration of result / certificates within 7 working days
Passivhaus testing
Visit One:
- Initial air test using pressurisation & depressurisation
- Temporary sealing of designed ventilation permitted
- Localized smoke test to advise on leakage paths
Visit Two:
- Repeat initial air test after first fix
- Services as per above
Visit Three:
- Final air test after completion of build
- Pressure test only, no temporary sealing permitted
- Leakage path report if required
