O’Brien House Blower Door Air Test
Monday, March 15, 2010; 1pm-3pm
Chad Everett, UMM Sustainability Coordinator, and members of the Sustainability team performed a blower door air test on the O’Brien house to measure air leakage and infiltration. This was done as part of the pre-retrofit process to establish a baseline to measure post retrofit improvement and to create a list of areas in the building that will require air sealing as part of the retrofit process. The team was at the O’Brien house from 1pm - 3pm and enjoyed many visitors from campus and the community.
