Blower Door Testing (Envelope Leakage Test)

Blower door testing is required under Florida Building Code R402.4.1.2 for new construction and additions. This test measures air leakage in the building envelope and ensures compliance with energy efficiency standards.

  • Code-compliant testing for permitting

  • Accurate reporting using calibrated equipment

  • Fast turnaround and onsite verification available

Duct Leakage Testing

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

  • Required for certain permit closeouts

  • Works in conjunction with blower door testing when needed

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.
