This eLearning training module focuses on single-family home blower door testing for residential contractors. A blower door test is an important part of a home energy assessment to measure and locate air leakage. It allows you to make data-driven recommendations to homeowners that improve their energy efficiency, indoor air quality and comfort. This course shows you why a blower door test should be in your scope of services and walks you through the process of conducting one.

This training is meant for residential contractors interested in performing energy audits to add value to their services or attain eligibility to participate in incentive programs. In addition, this course will help any contractors, utility representatives (management and/or program representatives), energy auditors, or anyone interested in learning the value of a blower door test, how the test is performed and the specific data it offers on areas of air leakage.
