Building Envelope
Solution Simplified
Why focus on the Building Envelope?
- Reduce Energy Costs: Reducing air infiltration and leakage reduces the burden on HVAC systems by as much as 40%.
- Improve Building Pressurization: tight air sealing maintains proper air balance that keeps outdoor air and humidity out.
- Improve Indoor Air Quality: a tighter building envelope reduces infiltration of outdoor air pollutants, dust, radon, paths for insect infestation, and infiltration of moisture.
- Improve comfort: minimizing drafts of untreated air, noise, and infiltration of moisture improves occupant comfort and productivity levels.
- Social Impact: Improved building sustainability reduces energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.
