Retrofit air leakage testing is a specialised assessment focused on evaluating the effectiveness of sealing measures implemented in existing buildings. Unlike initial construction testing, which ensures a building meets air leakage standards upon completion, retrofit testing targets areas where air may escape or infiltrate due to ageing structures or modifications.

This testing process involves pressurising or depressurising the building to measure the rate of air leakage, pinpointing areas of concern for potential energy or heat loss. By identifying and addressing these leaks, retrofit air leakage testing helps improve energy efficiency, reduce utility costs, and enhance overall occupant comfort.

Our team at ATSPACE LTD boasts extensive expertise in retrofit air leakage testing, with a proven history of delivering accurate results and cost-effective solutions. With our thorough approach and commitment to excellence, we ensure that your building maximises its performance and sustainability.

While retrofit air testing may not be mandated by regulations, its implementation significantly enhances the overall quality of construction projects. Conducting such tests ensures that buildings achieve higher energy efficiency, better indoor air quality, and superior thermal comfort. By identifying and rectifying air leaks and insulation deficiencies, retrofit air testing contributes to reduced energy consumption, leading to lower utility bills and a decreased carbon footprint. Moreover, improved indoor air quality resulting from effective air sealing promotes occupant health and comfort by minimising the infiltration of pollutants and allergens. Therefore, although not legally required, embracing retrofit air testing aligns with principles of sustainable construction and responsible building practices, ultimately yielding long-term benefits for both occupants and the environment.
