Air Tightness Testing

Air Tightness Testing
Want to learn how modest detailing improvements can deliver measurable energy savings, enhance NatHERS outcomes, and support healthier, better-performing buildings?
With NatHERS moving toward recognising verified airtightness as a pathway to improved energy ratings, designers, assessors and builders have a new opportunity to 'take credit' for real performance gains.
This webinar will outline the fundamentals of airtightness, the building elements that matter most, and practical strategies for reducing unintended air leakage in typical Australian construction.

Learning Outcomes
• Understand how the upcoming NatHERS airtightness credit works and why reduced air leakage translates directly into energy savings and improved ratings.
• Identify the key junctions, materials, and design details that have the greatest impact on airtightness in common Australian residential construction.
• Apply practical, buildable strategies to improve airtightness—through design guidance, clear documentation, and verification pathways—that support better performance and compliance.
