(1.5 CEU) The pressure pan measures duct pressures during a blower door test. If you measure pressure with a pressure pan at a duct register during a blower door test, that indicates that outdoor air is leaking into or out of the ducts. Pressure-pan testing isn’t a quantitative measurement of duct leakage, but it does help you find duct leaks and to evaluate the relative amount of duct leakage.

(5.0 CEU) This short course discusses two ways of evaluating or measuring duct leakage: pressure-pan testing and duct-blower testing. Pressure-pan testing helps to evaluate duct leakage and locate duct leaks. Duct-blower tests quantify air leakage to help energy auditors estimate how much time and effort to spend sealing the ducts.

(8.5 CEU) Blower door testing is an important skill for reducing air leakage in buildings. Blower doors provide an initial air-leakage measurement of a building so you can budget the appropriate time and money for air sealing. During and after air sealing, workers can measure their air-sealing success.
