Summary

STATES THE FAN PRESSURISATION TECHNIQUE IS WIDELY USED TO DETERMINE THE AIR PERMEABILITY OF SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED HOUSES. THE TECHNIQUE USES A LARGE, DOOR-MOUNTED FAN TO BLOW AIR INTO OR SUCH AIR OUT OF A BUILDING TO DETERMINE THE AIR FLOW AT VARIOUS PRESSURE DIFFERENCES ACROSS THE BUILDIN FOCUSSES ON THE COMPARISON OF THE 2 TECHNIQUES TO OBTAIN LEAKAGE DATA FOR MULTIZONE BUILDINGS NEEDED AS INPUT FOR MULTIZONE INFILTRATIN MODELS, USING STANDARD EQUIPMENT DESIGNED FOR SINGLE-ZONE APPLICATIONS.
