  Georgia Residential Energy Code Compliance - Building Tightness Testing - Duct Tightness Testing

  GeorgiaSpec has on staff BPI Certified Professional Building Analysts that provide needed Georgia Residential Energy Code Compliance testing. We offer competitive pricing and multi-testing discounts, as well as discounts to US Military Veteran owned Residential Builders and HVAC Contractors! "GeorgiaSpec Follows Ethical Standards While Providing You With Affordable and Professional Service" On January 1, 2011, the 2009 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) with 2011 Georgia State Supplements and Amendments became mandatory and applicable statewide as the new Georgia State Minimum Standard Energy Code. The 2011 GA supplements and amendments include a new definition for Certified Duct and Envelope Tightness (DET) Verifier along with new mandatory testing requirements for verification of the building thermal envelope and duct tightness for new residential construction. Residential buildings include one and two family dwellings (R-3), multi-family apartment buildings (R-2) and residential care/assistance living facilities (R-4) that are three stories or less in height above grade. The maximum allowable leakage rates for the building envelope and for duct systems that run external to the building envelope are outlined below. The building envelope must achieve less than 7 air changes per hour at 50 Pascals (7 ACH50). Duct systems can be tested either at rough in or post-construction with the total leakage test OR at post-construction with the leakage to the outside test. Rough-In Total (RIT) Leakage must be less than or equal to 6 CFM25 per 100 square feet of conditioned floor area served by that particular duct system. Post-Construction Total (PCT) Leakage must be less than or equal to 12 CFM25 per 100 square feet of conditioned floor area served by that particular duct system. Post-Construction Leakage to Outside (PCO) must be less than or equal to 8 CFM25 per 100 square feet of conditioned floor area served by that particular duct system. Testing for building envelope and duct tightness shall be conducted by a certified DET verifier. GeorgiaSpec employs certified Georgia DET verifiers. The required envelope and duct tightness testing is accomplished by using a blower door and duct blaster (air duct blower) pressure testing system. The results of duct tightness and envelope tightness test are required to be listed by the DET Verifier on a permanent certificate that is posted on or near the electrical panel or air handler. Refer to the 2011 GA State Supplements and Amendments for the complete code requirements for Duct and Envelope Tightness (DET) Verifier and Testing. Additional helpful information about how to properly air seal the building envelope and air duct systems is found in Appendix A of the GA amendments and is also available from Southface Energy Institute or US Department of Energy at www.energycodes.gov.

  HOME INSPECTIONS

  As Home Inspectors our goal is to provide all of our customers with a in-depth education about the property they are considering investing in. In order to do this we hope that you will accompany us throughout the inspection. We will examine the exterior and interior of the home to check for possible moisture intrusion, deteriorated materials, delayed maintenance and any possibly unsafe conditions. We will explain the maintenance that the home may need immediately and what will be needed to keep it in good condition. We will examine the mechanical systems, such as the heating and cooling, plumbing, and electrical, and check for proper operation. We will describe each of these to let you know what the age and condition of the systems is in and what maintenance is needed. When we have finished the inspection and any questions that you have are answered, a digital report with detailed pictures describing the property and its condition will be furnished to you. We realize that often things move quickly with real estate transactions. We always try to accommodate your busy schedule with the timing of your inspection. We can often work with you for evening or weekend inspections. Please realize that in order to perform a thorough inspection of the property and provide you with a proper report, the inspection normally takes between two and three hours. GeorgiaSpec Employs Home Inspectors That Have Attended The American Home Inspectors Training Institute (AHIT) And Have Been Certified Through Their Training Program. GeorgiaSpec Also Follows The NAHI's Standards of Practice & Code of Ethics for Home Inspections. GeorgiaSpec Is Certified by American Home Inspectors Institute (AHIT) A home inspection is a limited, non-invasive examination of the condition of a home, often in connection with the sale of that home. Home inspections are usually conducted by a home inspector who has the training and certifications to perform such inspections. The inspector prepares and delivers to the client a written report of findings. The client then uses the knowledge gained to make informed decisions about their pending real estate purchase. The home inspector describes the condition of the home at the time of inspection but does not guarantee future condition, efficiency, or life expectancy of systems or components.[1] An inspector will check the roof, basement, heating system, water heater, air-conditioning system, structure, plumbing, electrical, and many other aspects of buildings looking for improper building practices, those items that require extensive repairs, items that are general maintenance issues, as well as some fire and safety issues.[2] However, it should also be noted that a home inspection is not technically exhaustive and does not imply that every defect will be discovered. A general list of exclusions include but are not limited to: code or zoning violations, permit research, property measurements or surveys, boundaries, easements or right of way, conditions of title, proximity to environmental hazards, noise interference, soil or geological conditions, well water systems or water quality, underground sewer lines and/or waste disposal systems, buried piping, cisterns, underground water tanks and sprinkler systems to name a few. A complete list of standards and procedures for home inspections can be found at NAHI, ASHI or InterNACHI or IHINA websites. A general inspection standard for all types of buildings can be found at the National Academy of Building Inspection Engineers (NABIE). A home inspector is sometimes confused with a real estate appraiser. A home inspector determines the condition of a structure, whereas an appraiser determines the value of a property. Although not all states or municipalities in the U.S. regulate home inspectors, there are some professional associations for home inspectors that provide education, training, and networking opportunities. A professional home inspection is an examination of the current condition of a house. It is not an inspection to verify compliance with appropriate codes. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia GeorgiaSpec, LLC abides by the Georgia Trade practice act (Chapter 3, Title 8) enacted in 1994. Georgia law requires home inspectors to provide written documents containing certain information with regard to inspections. This written document must include the scope of the inspection, including the structural elements and systems to be inspected, that the inspection is a visual inspection, and that the home inspector will notify, in writing, the person on whose behalf such inspection is being made of any defects noted during the inspection.
