Abstract

Here we outline a 12-step program for contractors and design teams to assist them in delivering airtight buildings. The UK construction industry needs to adapt and develop, otherwise contractors and others will continue to face significant difficulties, delays and additional costs. Airtightness is a key element to the design and delivery of low energy buildings.

Paul Jennings of Aldas is the most experienced airtightness tester and consultant in the UK, with over 30 years’ experience. He has been an an AECB member for over 15 years and a Trustee for much of that time. He is also a Director of the UK Cohousing Network.
