Advanced BPI Assessment

Level 3 - Advanced BPI Energy Assessment:

This level includes all the items in Level 1 and Level 2 plus:

This level of analysis is designed for houses with known or anticipated HVAC System and Ductwork issues. Our BPI & RESNET certified auditor will evaluate the system to determine the amount of leakage from the HVAC distribution ducts. Duct leakage inspections use an air pressure pan and/or duct blaster to determine how tight the ducts are or are they leaking heat into wasted areas of the house instead of the rooms you want to heat or cool. Also is the room getting enough air to properly heat or cool that space. Indoor air-quality tests, ventilation systems check, HVAC register air flow and balancing reports are available as a separate test at this time if the results warrant.
