Check out the improved Hard Panelthat fits Model 1000, 5000 and 6000 fans for Home Performance tests. Retrotec's exclusive virgin ABS Panels are a vast improvement over fumbling with a frame, cloth and crossbar. Hard Panels slide and lock in place. The Fan's foot goes in a slot then clamps into an O-Ring seal.
That's it... you're ready to test.
Clients gather round to see these cool these panels. Professional performing tools sell jobs.
We think that as few as 10% of new homes that require testing to comply with State codes are actually tested. Many builders and Code Officials simply don't bother.
The effect? The single most important performance criteria is simply not measured.
As a result, these homes could waste $25,000+ worth of energy, and cause serious health and comfort problems for their owners, over the life of the home.
The amount saved by not completing the current Code-required duct-sealing is perhaps $100-200. For the envelope of the house, the additional sealing may cost $200-300.
This is a tragedy of shortsightedness when you consider that to fix the house after construction will probably cost $2000-4000.
