Third-Party Energy Code Compliance Testing

Blower door testing has become a mandatory requirement for energy code compliance in the 2012 IECC and subsequent codes for all residential dwellings, townhouses, or apartment buildings that are three stories or less. This energy code testing, which includes duct leakage testing, ensures that structures meet the necessary energy compliance standards.

Duct leakage testing has been required since the adoption of energy codes, specifically under the 2012 Residential IECC. As part of energy code compliance, newer versions of the IECC mandate duct leakage testing for all duct work, even when located in 100% conditioned space, ensuring thorough energy compliance through effective energy code testing.
