The contractor, Durotech Builders, requested Blue Quality Services provide water and air infiltration testing on aluminum framed entrances, storefronts, and glazed aluminum curtain walls. Testing was conducted in accordance with ASTM E783 and ASTM E1105. When performed together, these tests simulate rain and wind driven weather events and verify that all window assemblies were installed and perform according to manufacturers specifications.  

Test findings were described in reports sent to members of the project team immediately after the testing is complete. Our same day reports help provide quick feedback regarding the installation quality, alert the project team early of any leakage, and prevents systemic problems.
