Air Tightness Testing (Subscribe)
Air Tightness Testing or also known as Air leakage Testing is the uncontrolled flow of air that can migrate through any gap or crack within a building structure and fabric, thus affecting its air permeability or air tightness. A test can establish whether new homes and commercial buildings meet the required standard.
|
All new build premises now require Air Tightness Testing. An Energy Assessor who is surveying recently built property may request to inspect the certificate for calculation of SAP or for SBEM calculations for commercial buildings. It is recommended that you commission a specialist consultancy for air testing procedures. Air tightness consultants are registered with the British Institute of Non Destructive Testing (BINDT) and registered company's can perform a test on new dwellings and buildings. The testing should be in accordance with the guidelines found in ATTMA Technical Standard. testing procedures are also recognised by UKAS. |
Buildings: Part L1A Regulations
The 2006 Part L1A Building Regulations required that new homes should be tested for air tightness to confirm the energy performance of new dwellings. As From 1st April 2006 it became mandatory to test a sample of buildings for new housing developments that are constructed. All new homes will have to prove that they have passed an air tightness test prior to occupation. The rate your property will need to achieve will be determined in your Target Emission Rate (TER). Building control will be unable to provide you with a completion certificate unless an air testing has been conducted, and the correct results have been achieved. In the event of failure, a smoke test can be performed to help identify problem areas in the property.
Air Leakage Control
Common causes of uncontrolled air leakage areas are detailed below, in addition, if these areas are not effectively sealed during the construction phase then the overall energy performance (SAP Rating) may be affected;
- For Intermediate Floors it is recommended to use Use joist hangers, if built into the walls seal with a flexible sealant product to prevent air loss.
- Recommendation for Skirting Boards, seal between floors and walls.
- Recommendation for Coving apply sealant between walls and ceilings.
- Recommendation for boxed in pipework, risers & soil stacks, apply sealant where pipes exit the ceiling into a roof space.
- Recommendation for bath panels apply sealant around all services and pipework that penetrates the fabric of the property.
- Recommendation for kitchen Units apply sealant around all services and pipework that penetrates the fabric of the property.
- General: any duct work, ventilation ducts or other pipe work that enters the property should be sealed off using an approved product.
- Trickle Vents testing, only allows for trickle vents to be shut and not sealed.
- For any windows and doors in the building ensure that there is a satisfactory seal behind plaster board.
- Recess Lighting, ensure that such fittings are fire check fittings and are fitted correctly as per manufacturers instructions.
- Loft Hatches, ensure that a quality loft hatch is fitted to the roof space area.
- For floorboards it is recommended that any holes are sealed, for timber floorboards they should be refitted correctly and sealed where necessary to prevent air leakage occuring.
Many companies now provide Sound Testing (Acoustic Testing) in accordance with guidance in Approved Document E and the relevant standards – BS EN ISO 140 Parts 4 & 7 and BS EN ISO 717 Parts 1 & 2 if required.

Sustainable Homes Code - Learn more about Ecohomes and New Build sustainable homes ratings and compliance issues. Sustainable housing developments are on the increase on UK construction sites and set new standards for new dwellings and the refurbishment and modernisation of existing homes and dwellings, find out more.
An independent Domestic Energy Assessor or Commercial Property Energy Assessor can usually provide a recommendations report and a cheaper EPC at a discount price. A smaller company has low overheads and so may be able to offer EPC's for a low cost solution with an option for discounts for bulk instructions. In addition, the surveyor will be based locally and can service your requirements more effectively than some Nationwide EPC providers.
A Domestic Energy Performance Certificate is required for certification of Existing Domestic Dwellings for sale or let. Property developers constructing New Build Dwellings will require a SAP Rating Energy Certificate.
A Commercial Energy Performance Certificate is required for certification of Existing Non-Domestic Commercial Buildings for sale or let. For example an EPC Certificate will be required for: Retail premises, Shops, Industrial Units, Offices, Factory and Manufacturing premises. New Build Non-Dwellings (On-Construction) will also require an Energy Certificate.
