A 10' x 10' air-tight chamber was constructed and sealed tightly to the exterior wall assembly. A small fan was used to pressurize and de-pressurize the chamber while a technician used a smoke puffer and liquid solution inside the chamber to identify air leakage sites.
Using a hi-lift, we performed a water leakage test following AAMA 501.2 testing guidelines. Horizontal and vertical seams were checked utilizing a calibrated sprayer unit.
While spraying the exterior, technicians inside the building searched for water infiltration.
