Whole Building Air Leakage Test (WBALT)
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Thermal Wise completed one whole building air leakage test (WBALT) to evaluate the constructed air tightness of the building in question. The test provided the client with the following metrics: air changes per hour at 50 Pa, normalized air leakage rate at 75 Pa (can be used to compare results to default code air leakage rates) and the flow exponent for the test(s) conducted. Testing was conducted in general compliance with ASTM E3158, “Standard Test Method for Measuring the Air Leakage Rate of a Large or Multizone Building.”
