Indianapolis ACOE Testing

In April of 2014 we performed air barrier testing on 4 military buildings in Indianapolis, IN.   The largest building had a building envelope area well over 100,000 s.f.    The buildings were amazingly tight as we are seeing a vast improvement in air barrier details and construction monitoring.

Based on the square footage of the building, 12 fans should have been required to hit the passing rate.  However this building was so tight that we only ended up using 2 of our 3-fan systems.
