Hi all,

I'm so glad that there is interest in the multi family sector, much needed indeed.  I've attached two great articles about multi family testing.

 

Measuring Leakage In High Rise Buildings

 

Controlling Air Leakage In Tall Buildings

 

You can find more information about large building testing on our site:

If you have questions let me know,

So, the blower door class IS going to happen -- Thursday through noon Saturday, August 11 through 13, in Aurora, IL. The logistics of offering this as a Short Course got a little complicated, so it's being offered as a separate event by Insight Property Services. I think we will be able to include a test run of one of the "automated" testing platforms, where all the blower doors needed (8 to 12 or so) are all linked and operated from a central control station driven by a laptop. Get in touch with me for more info -- I should have all the details in a day or two.
