Sample testing is
otherwise known as Benchmark Testing.
Home Integrity Testing can test the
integrity of the building envelope at an earlier stage to identify
leakage paths in order to rectify any areas of concern prior to
compliance testing. Previous clients have found this useful as
rectifying problem areas post completion is a time-consuming and
expensive exercise.
For larger building developments it
is often advantageous to test a sample of the first batch of houses
complete, so that recommendations from the sample test analysis can
be implemented in all further builds. This helps ensure all
subsequent builds will pass the air tightness test first time.
