ThermalWise was contracted by Efficiency Nova Scotia to conduct air leakage testing at 65 King Street in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia.  The purpose of the testing was to quantify air leakage of the existing building envelope to better determine pre-retrofit energy use associated with air leakage. ThermalWise completed semi-guarded air testing on a typical unit in the residential tower to determine the air leakage through the most typical exterior wall type. 

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.” 

ThermalWise was contracted by Contract Glaziers Inc., to conduct water penetration testing of the CW-05 curtain wall specimen installed at the Richmond Yards building located at 6070 Almon Street, Halifax Nova Scotia. Testing, conducted in general accordance with ASTM E-1105, was performed in April 2022, on a CW-05 curtain wall test specimen.

ThermalWise was contracted by Marco to conduct forensic water penetration testing of a pre-cast to pre-cast connection and window wall at the Alt Hotel Halifax Airport, Halifax, Nova Scotia.

Botsford in a mixed-use project is located in downtown Moncton, NB. The project is pursuing LEED certification and will be Moncton's first residential LEED project. It will also be Atlantic Canada's first mixed-use LEED-certified building.
