Summary: One of the important advancements in construction technology is air conditioning. Air conditioners have saved the lives of thousands of people that would otherwise be suffering from heat stroke in the hot summer months. Part of developing air conditioning technology is to install good duct work in your home and make sure your home is pressurized well and not leaking air conditioning. A house that is not properly pressurized will cost you more money in electricity and wear your ducting and air conditioner down quicker.
In this free video series, watch as construction science expert Joshua Lindsey teaches how to give a blower door test. Learn how to control, set up and read a manometer, how to interpret test results, and the benefit of having a good pressurized home with proper ducting.
