Air and Water Infiltration Testing Services
Undetected air and water infiltration can lead to serious energy loss, moisture damage, and occupant complaints. Our field testing services validate the performance of your building envelope using precise, ASTM-compliant diagnostic procedures designed for modern construction environments.
What is Air and Water Infiltration Testing?
Air and water infiltration testing evaluates how well your exterior systems—especially windows, curtain walls, and joints—resist leakage. Using calibrated pressure chambers and spray racks, we simulate wind-driven rain and air pressure to expose any weaknesses in the envelope.
Why You Need Infiltration Testing
- Comply with IECC, LEED, and ASTM requirements
- Prevent mold, water intrusion, and indoor air quality issues
- Verify workmanship and system performance before turnover
- Meet quality assurance protocols and warranty standards
- Identify recurring leaks or pressurization issues
Our Services Include:
- ASTM E1105 Water Infiltration Testing (spray rack method)
- ASTM E783 Air Infiltration Testing
- Blower door and pressure chamber testing for fenestration
- Thermal and moisture diagnostics
- Detailed test documentation and compliance reporting
Case Study: Mixed-Use Development QA Testing
Project: Residential + Retail Complex | Milwaukee, WI
Need: Validate window and wall performance for LEED certification
Solution: Performed ASTM E1105 and E783 tests on 20% of units. Discovered sealant failure at three units and oversaw corrective action.
Result: All units passed retesting. Project earned full LEED points for envelope performance.
