Partner with wattson
One of the critical components of our approach to building sustainable homes is the Blower Door Test, a service we offer to new home builders in Clearwater and Sarasota. This test is an essential step in ensuring that your new construction project meets and exceeds the highest standards of energy efficiency.
Why the Blower Door Test Matters to You
A Blower Door Test is a crucial part of the construction process for any energy-conscious builder. It measures a home’s airtightness by depressurizing it and identifying any leaks or gaps in the building envelope. This test helps to determine how much conditioned air (heated or cooled) can escape from your home and how much outside air can infiltrate it. By pinpointing these areas of energy loss, builders can take corrective action to enhance the energy efficiency of the house.
Energy Efficiency
Identifying and sealing air leaks revealed by the Blower Door Test can significantly reduce heating and cooling costs, making your new homes more energy-efficient and cost-effective for homeowners in the long run.
Improved Comfort
An airtight home is not only more energy-efficient but also more comfortable. It helps maintain a consistent temperature throughout the house, eliminating cold drafts and hot spots.
Better Indoor Air Quality
By sealing your home from outdoor contaminants, the Blower Door Test helps improve indoor air quality, making the living environment healthier and more enjoyable.
Environmental Responsibility
Building energy-efficient homes isn’t just about saving money; it’s about reducing your carbon footprint. An airtight home minimizes energy consumption, thus reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
