Certified Blower Door Testing for Florida Code Compliance

Blower door testing measures how much air leaks in and out of a home under controlled pressure conditions. In Florida, this test is required for many new construction projects, additions, and renovations to verify compliance with the Florida Building Code and energy efficiency standards.

Our blower door testing provides accurate ACH measurements, clear documentation, and code-ready reporting accepted by building departments and inspectors throughout the Tampa Bay region.

Serving the Tampa Bay Area and Surrounding Counties

We provide professional blower door testing across West Central Florida, including Hillsborough County, Pinellas County, Pasco County, Polk County, and portions of Manatee County.

Common service areas include Tampa, St. Petersburg, Lakeland, Bradenton, Zephyrhills, Lutz, and surrounding communities.

Blower Door Testing for Builders as well as Homeowners

New Construction & Additions

Blower door testing is often required prior to final inspection for new homes and permitted additions. We work directly with builders and contractors to schedule testing efficiently and provide documentation that meets local inspection requirements.

Existing Homes & Energy Efficiency

For homeowners, blower door testing identifies excessive air leakage that can contribute to comfort issues, high energy bills, and moisture problems common in Florida’s climate.

Why Choose an Independent Blower Door Tester?

Using an independent blower door tester helps ensure unbiased results and accurate reporting. Our testing focuses solely on measurement and verification — not selling repairs — so builders and homeowners can trust the data they receive.

Duct testing evaluates air loss from the HVAC duct system and is often required for compliance when ductwork is installed in unconditioned space (e.g., attics, garages).

  • Tests performed to meet Florida energy code

Energy Audits

My energy audits go beyond a basic utility walkthrough — I use both blower door testing and a thermal imaging camera together to deliver a detailed and accurate assessment of your home's energy performance.

This diagnostic approach allows me to:

  • Pinpoint insulation gaps, air leaks, and thermal bridging

  • Identify hidden issues like leaky ductwork, poor attic performance, or missing insulation

  • Provide prioritized recommendations to improve comfort, efficiency, and cost savings

This is a much more comprehensive analysis than the limited visual checks offered by programs like TECO’s free audits. It's ideal for homeowners serious about lowering utility bills or preparing for major upgrades.
