What is an Air Tightness Test?
An air tightness test, is a critical assessment of a building's envelope integrity. The test measures the amount of air that escapes or enters, through the fabric of a building such as windows and doors, or services such as pipes and ductwork. The more airtight your building is, the less energy will be wasted through leakage of air. It will lower the environmental impact of the building and save the building owner money on energy bills. It is also a requirement for new residential buildings in Gibraltar.

Our certified technicians use state-of-the-art equipment to measure the rate of air leakage from the building. This test is essential in identifying areas where air is escaping or infiltrating, which can lead to energy waste and reduced indoor comfort.
Energy and Cost Savings
A well-executed air tightness test and subsequent improvements can lead to significant energy and cost savings over the lifespan of the building. By reducing air leakage, you'll experience lower heating and cooling bills, increased comfort for occupants, and a reduced environmental footprint.
