What is Passive House Air Leakage Testing?

Passive House (or Passivhaus) Air Leakage Testing is a specialised air tightness test that measures how much air escapes from a building. Unlike standard tests, it follows strict international Passive House guidelines. The goal is to ensure your building meets the ultra-low energy demand requirements of a Passive House, usually 0.6 air changes per hour at 50 pascals.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the air leakage target for Passive House?
The target is 0.6 air changes per hour (ACH) at 50 Pascals. This is much stricter than standard UK Building Regulations.
How long does a Passive House air test take?
The test usually takes 2–3 hours, depending on the size of the building and the complexity of the setup.
Do I need to prepare the site before testing?
Yes. All external doors and windows must be installed. We’ll also advise you to seal certain vents and openings temporarily.
What if my building fails the test?
We’ll explain exactly where the leaks are and how to fix them. Our team can return for a retest once the improvements are made.
Can you test at different stages of the build?
Yes. We offer early-stage “pre-tests” to catch issues early, and a final certification test once construction is complete.
