Evolving energy codes and growing homeowner demands for energy-efficient homes are making air sealing an increasingly hot topic within the residential building industry.
Staying current in air sealing is quickly becoming a must for builders in today’s marketplace. Between the expanded adoption of the 2012 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC 2012), new air infiltration program requirements and heightened “green” expectations from homeowners, builders need to incorporate the latest energy efficient solutions to remain competitive.
To help builders address these challenges, the Owens Corning Building Science team conducted extensive air infiltration research to identify the leakage quantities and characteristics of various types of joints and openings in a home. The study uncovered new air sealing insights that today’s builders can use to save time on the job and thus cost-effectively energy efficient homes.
