TEST METHOD
Duct leakage testing measures air loss through seams, joints, and
construction connections.
Pressurized duct testing at 25 Pascals (CFM25)
Pass/fail results based on IECC thresholds
Verification that air reaches conditioned spaces
Identification of visible leakage points (when accessible)
Code-ready documentation for inspectors and permitting
DUCT LEAKAGE TESTING
At specific points in the construction and permitting process, especially for ducted HVAC
systems located outside conditioned space, duct leakage testing is required for compliance.


Testing before drywall or ceiling installation allows installers to correct leaks before systems are concealed.

Many jurisdictions require a passing duct leakage test as part of the mechanical final approval process.

Commonly used for tenant finish-outs, retail spaces, offices, renovations, and small commercial projects.
Duct leakage testing by Blink Energy Services is a pass/fail compliance test.

WHY IT MATTERS
Feature Items:
Comfort & Air Delivery
Excess leakage reduces the amount of conditioned air
reaching occupied spaces.
Energy Efficiency
Leaky ducts increase energy use and equipment runtime.
Operating Costs
Poor duct performance drives higher utility and maintenance costs.
Inspection & Approval Outcomes
Passing duct leakage results are often required to obtain
permit closure and inspection clearance.
