Blower Door Test
Montana new home building requirementÂ
Service Description
Montana new home building requirement A blower door test shows the total amount of air leakage in a home. Having a tighter home improves energy efficiency, and saves money on energy bills. The building tightness standard for Montana is targeted at 4 air changes per hour (measured at 50 Pascals pressure control), or 4 ACH50. The energy code requires air sealing around windows, doors, electrical boxes on exterior walls, and ceilings and openings where pipes and wires pass through the building shell. Air leakage is often responsible for 10 to 30 percent of total home energy loss. Check to see if pipes, wires and utility lines, and other openings have been sealed. Most of the air leakage sites will be hidden in the attic, walls, and floor. Because the house is sealed for comfort and efficiency, it is important to ventilate the house in a controlled way.
