TightVent is very pleased to welcome Build Test Solutions, as new partner!

Build Test Solutions (BTS) is a UK based technology manufacturing business dedicated to driving innovation in building performance measurement. We are driven to change buildings for the better by providing the means to measure and act on as-built performance. To do this, we develop game-changing equipment and software solutions for a wide range of stakeholders in construction, renovation and home improvement sectors. Specifically in line with the work of TightVent, we have worked with the University of Nottingham in the UK to bring to market a novel low pressure compressed air based method of measuring building air leakage. Unlike conventional steady state techniques, this dynamically measures air leakage rates directly at 4Pa with a short burst of air, a pressure level that closely resembles day-to-day ambient conditions. We also host tools used for measuring the thermal performance of buildings, indoor air quality and ventilation performance. Build Test Solutions strongly supports the work of TightVent and the efforts of the wider membership in advocating the importance of building and ductwork airtightness in achieving healthy, sustainable low energy buildings.
