In the world of high-performance homes, air sealing plays a crucial role in reducing energy loss and contamination from outside air. But traditional methods of air sealing have been traditionally labor-intensive, time-consuming, and prone to human error.
Thanks to AeroBarrier, there is now a way to achieve exact air leakage levels, all while taking less time than more traditional air sealing methods. In this article, we will look at AeroBarrier’s benefits for homebuyers and builders aiming to integrate effective air sealing into their projects.
The Importance of Air Sealing in High-Performance Homes
Air sealing is required for high-performance homes striving to meet rigorous standards like Net Zero Ready, LEED, ENERGY STAR, and Passive House. Traditional air sealing methods, relying on manual application and blower door tests, can be unpredictable in both results and the time it takes to complete them. Hidden gaps and leaks can be overlooked, leading to suboptimal results, and taking more time on the job site. In new construction homes, where comprehensive sealing is even more challenging, an innovative solution like AeroBarrier becomes indispensable.
AeroBarrier: A Game-Changer in Air Sealing
The AeroBarrier system of air sealing in new construction high performance homes operates by pressurizing the interior of a building, and then releasing a mist of airborne sealant. This sealant is drawn to holes and gaps throughout the home, where it collects and permanently seals them. This process ensures that every nook and cranny, even those traditionally hard-to-reach areas, are effectively sealed.
The automated nature of AeroBarrier eliminates the guesswork and human error associated with manual methods. The result is a consistently airtight home, meeting the high standards required for high-performance certification.
