Description
Pressure diagnostics can be critically important when diagnosing pressure boundary problems in homes. However, the concept of performing pressure diagnostics in homes is often misunderstood and is confusing to energy auditors. This session focuses on the technique of setting up the manometer for pressure diagnostic tests and helps the students better understand what the results mean and then how to include actions in the workscope to correct problems that are found.
