WHY AeroSeal?

To understand air sealing benefits, it helps to understand what an air barrier is.

An air barrier is a system for controlling air flow between conditioned and unconditioned spaces. This air barrier system is the primary air enclosure boundary that separates indoor (conditioned) air from outdoor (unconditioned) air.

In a multi-unit building (office, townhouse or apartment) the air barrier system also mitigates the air and noise sharing between adjacent units.

TURNING ISSUES
INTO OPPORTUNITIES

More and more builders are turning to AeroSeal Envelope for good reason!

AeroSeal Envelope turns air sealing issues into opportunities with guaranteed results from a single crew and allows new levels of efficiency that prevent common waste traps throughout the construction process.

MEASURABLE RESULTS

As AeroSeal Envelope is applied, the results are displayed in real time. By incorporating a blower door, the AeroSeal Envelope system is able to dial in your desired leakage. It’s that easy and verified upon completion.

DURABLE

Sealant achieves durability performance in 3 key areas: flexing, aging, and compatibility in tests simulating 50 years of service.

FAST & EASY TO APPLY

From start to finish, the sealing process is typically completed in less than a day which is helpful when staying on schedule.

SAFE

GreenGuard Gold is certified with Ultra-low VOC content and no off-gassing. Work can resume in the home within 30 minutes.

COST-EFFECTIVE

Reduces the need for caulk to weatherize a space pre dry-wall. Meet and verify air tightness requirements in real time, avoid sealing guesswork, and save on time, material and labor.

REDUCE YOUR BUILD COST & STREAMLINE THE PROCESS

Historically, air sealing has been an unreliable, inconsistent guessing game with many hands involved. A lot of trust is placed in multiple subcontractors to do their part correctly so a failed inspection doesn’t blindside you.

Unfortunately, failing an initial blower door inspection is more common than not. This requires extra labor, hold times, testing fees, schedule conflicts, and more—all of which are money out of your pocket.

AeroSeal Envelope’s precise, measurable results remove the guesswork and headache of uncertainty when meeting any air sealing requirement.

Upon completion, the Aeroseal Envelope Connect air sealing system automatically provides you with an air sealing certificate.

EASILY MEET ANY AIR SEALING REQUIREMENTS

Meet any ENERGY STAR®, LEED, Passive House or Net Zero requirements the first time.

Consistent, guaranteed results allow your construction schedule to maintain its course. The best part? The technology is easily integrated into any build process.

VERSATILE APPLICATIONS:
SINGLE & MULTI-FAMILY, COMMERCIAL & MORE

The possibilities are limitless. If it can be pressurized, it can be sealed.

The Aeroseal Envelope air sealing system works equally well in single and multi-family applications.

For residential applications, reduced building envelope leakage means increased durability, reduced mechanical loads, improved energy efficiency and more economical renewable energy options.

More importantly, a tighter building envelope can help increase the comfort and overall indoor air quality (IAQ) within the home, leading to a better living environment.

AIR LEAKAGE IS...

Typically the largest driver of energy use in the home, comprising

30% – 70% of energy wasted on heating and cooling. Usually, the biggest contributing factor for drafts or hot/cold spots and other comfort issues in a home. Often the largest contributor to moisture problems, especially mold and mildew.

MAKE YOUR HOME HEALTHY:
WHY AIR SEALING MATTERS

It’s simple. You can’t control or regulate a leaky home.

It is one of the most important energy-efficiency measures. Air leakage, or infiltration, occurs when outside air enters a house uncontrollably through cracks, gaps, and openings.

Homes with higher air leakage are significantly less energy-efficient than well-sealed homes. They also require larger HVAC systems to keep the home comfortable. These larger systems must run more frequently to keep up with the temperature changes as the outside air leaks into the house.

The airtightness issue goes beyond how well a building’s HVAC system performs. Uncontrolled air leakage can also provide a vehicle for unwanted moisture to enter a building, which can become the reason for a building to fail, leading to costly building repairs. Because moisture is transferred predominantly by air currents — accounting for up to 98% of all water vapor movement in buildings — air sealing your home or building is essential. Leaky buildings also allow dust, allergens, pollutants and other airborne particulates to enter, leading to poor indoor air quality.

Reducing the amount of air leaking in and out of your building is a cost-effective way to cut heating and cooling costs, improve durability, increase overall comfort, and create a healthier indoor environment.
