Stop air leaks in
single-family home building envelopes

With AeroBarrier

Creating a tight building envelope is essential for improving energy efficiency in new home construction. But manually finding and sealing invisible air leaks is labor-intensive, costly and often ineffective at meeting your air change per hour (ACH) targets. The AeroBarrier® solution easily integrates into your build process to deliver verifiable, cost-effective envelope sealing.

Verified building envelope sealing made easy

The AeroBarrier solution is designed to make it easy for your crews to find and seal leaks in the new home envelope.

Leading national builders already have already adopted AeroBarrier as their preferred envelope sealing solution. The process scales seamlessly into their construction schedules without changing their standard build procedures. Each home envelope sealing concludes with a verifiable certificate of completion to a specific ACH50 rating.

How AeroBarrier works

AeroBarrier pressurizes the interior of the house. Leaks in an envelope — or holes in a balloon — will cause air to escape quickly to the outside. The AeroBarrier solution uses an atomized sealant that follows pressurized air as it escapes through building leaks and seals them along the way.

Our Process

4 easy steps

Preparation and setup

– Cover finished horizontal surfaces
– Cover openings that should not be sealed
(i.e., vents and fireplace openings)
– Set up equipment

Pressurize and begin sealing

– Pressurize space and measure baseline leakage
– Input your target air tightness goal
– Begin computer-controlled air sealing

Monitor and finish sealing

– Monitor sealing progress via laptop computer
– Track and report progress every 60 seconds via
continuous blower door test
– Verify to required ACH50 target is achieved

Certify seal completion and cleanup

– Generate Envelope Sealing Report via AeroBarrier software
– Remove protective coverings and equipment
– Resume construction work within 30 minutes

Regional codes and federal incentives are driving various air tightness standards. AeroBarrier can help you meet leading ACH50 targets:

3 ACH50

IECC code targets

1 ACH50

ENERGY STAR target

1.5 ACH50

What our customers Think

“At first I hated the thought of panels on my roof. I thought it was hideous. Once I sat with Heidi and Raphy, they explained how they reduced the amount of energy my home used with insulation and sealing my duct work. They were able to install a smaller system because of this. Total game changer for me.”
