ASTM E779 and E1827 Testing Built for Commercial Projects

Commercial blower-door testing at the whole-building level requires more than just showing up with a fan. We execute per ASTM E779, the primary standard for air leakage testing ASTM E779, reporting results as ACH75 or as an air leakage rate normalized to building envelope area. When project conditions or engineer specifications call for the orifice method, we shift to ASTM E1827 without disrupting your schedule.

Air Barrier Testing for Large and Complex Structures

For large multi-zone buildings where single-setup pressurization isn’t feasible, we apply a sequential sampling approach. Tenant suites, floor zones, or building sections are tested individually, and results are aggregated per your project specifications. This makes whole building air barrier testing practical at scale without sacrificing accuracy or documentation quality. Building codes and LEED requirements are fully supported through this process.

Building Envelope Air Leakage Testing

We’ve completed ASTM E779 blower-door testing at JPMC bank branches across multiple states in the Southeast. Our knowledge of equipment, protocols, and standards also equips us to perform building-envelope air-leakage testing for medical office buildings, government facilities, schools, and mixed-use commercial projects. Every setup prioritizes first-time accuracy so your project timeline stays intact.

Reporting That Supports Owner and Code Review

Every test we run produces clean documentation. Results are formatted to match what your Cx package, AHJ submission, or owner report requires. ACH75 values, normalized leakage rates, and supporting data are clearly presented. Indoor air quality outcomes and test measures are documented so your closeout package is ready without rework.

I had the pleasure of observing Josh, Robert and Daniel recently during a Field QA trip, and was blown away by their process-oriented and quality-focused approach towards servicing their clients. Air Tight Solutions has a bright future ahead of them, and any builder or homeowner looking for a HERS Rating Company in their service area should look no further!

I had a great experience with Airtight Solutions for my home energy inspection. Their team was extremely knowledgeable and professional from start to finish. They performed a blower door test, duct leakage testing, and a full HERS rating, and took the time to clearly explain what everything meant for my home’s efficiency. If you’re building a new home or need energy code compliance testing, I highly recommend Airtight Solutions. They understand building science, insulation, air sealing, and HVAC performance better than anyone I’ve worked with in the Upstate SC area. The report was detailed, accurate, and delivered quickly. Top choice for home energy audits, RESNET HERS ratings, and blower door testing in South Carolina.

Josh O’Neal with Air Tight Solutions is top-notch. We use Josh for duct blast and blower door testing on our projects at Mark Thoennes Builders, and he’s consistently fast, professional, and easy to work with. He shows up when he says he will, communicates clearly, and delivers accurate results without slowing down the job. His process is efficient, his reports are prompt, and he keeps things straightforward for our team and inspectors. If you’re a builder or homeowner needing blower door or duct blast testing done right (and done quickly), I highly recommend Josh and Air Tight Solutions.

There is no one better to hire for your code compliance testing than Air Tight Solutions.

I recently did a full renovation on one of my homes, as I called in for my final inspection, I was informed that the required blower test was overlooked! We were already behind schedule so this is the last thing we needed! I called Air Tight Solutions and they were able to work us into the schedule before the next inspection date. It was a big save! Josh and his team did a great job from start to finish. I highly recommend them for your compliance testing needs.

Called Josh after finding Air Tight Solutions via a Google search to help with an issue I was having getting a permit. My issue was not in their typical scope but he adapted to find a solution within 48 hours. Pricing was extremely reasonable and while many companies just say “no I can’t do that”, he chose to find a solution. Highly recommend! -Local Residential Builder
