We guarantee to find all building defects using the air door.
The Blower Door allows for thermal imaging diagnostics of the building at any time of year. We will identify all defects, provide recommendations, calculate the cost and payback period of thermal insulation, and eliminate all defects.

Blower door
The figure shows how the air moves in the building when the air door is turned on.
A blower door is a device that creates a negative pressure in rooms during internal thermal imaging inspections, and an overpressure in rooms during external thermal imaging of facades. Without a blower door, thermal imaging diagnostics is impossible when the temperature difference between the building's interior and the outside is less than 15 degrees. Using a thermal imager and a blower door, we can see where air is penetrating through walls, joints, and seams, as well as the quality of the masonry and vapor barriers, and check the installation quality of windows and doors. When a negative pressure is created in a building, the effect of a strong wind is created, and the thermal imager can see the tightness of windows and doors. The most common defect is a leak between the window or door frame and the wall. This space is typically filled with foam, which should not allow air to pass through. The most common causes are poor foaming or poor foam.
The most common defects
Only with the help of an air door and thermal imaging inspection can these defects be identified.
Window installation defect
Cold air enters the building through a leak between the window frame and the wall. This defect must be corrected to avoid excessive energy consumption for heating and air conditioning.
Defects in joints and installation of wind protection and vapor barriers
Cold air will penetrate through any defects in the wall, leading to economic losses. In this case, it will be necessary to redo the windproofing and seal the roof-wall joints.
Деффект кровли
Дефект герметизации кровли, холодный воздух будет проникать в здание, будет образовываться конденсат в кровле и как следствие плесень и начала разрушения конструкции из за влаги.
