Air Leakage and Duct Tightness Compliance Testing for the 2009, 2012 and 2015 IRC/IECC
This section of the webinar will explore the Air Leakage and Duct Tightness testing requirements of the 2009-2015 IRC/IECC. The 2009 IRC/IECC introduced an optional building air leakage test along with requirements for duct tightness testing if any of the ducts run outside of the thermal envelope. In the 2012 and 2015 versions, the air leakage test became mandatory. This section will discuss new provisions in the 2015 code along with issues and concerns that are not addressed in the code.
