Air Permeability Testing for Window

Overview

Air Permeability refers to the amount of air that will travel through a window or door system in its closed position. Air permeability testing relies on the quality of the systems sealing, engineering and manufacturing to ensure that all opening segments seal together well and fully to stop as much air travel through a system as possible.

It is important in terms of comfort to the internal spaces to ensure minimal wind/breeze intrusion and is also an important factor when it comes to environmental factors, to limit the travel of energy from the internal to the external of the system.
