FAQ

The aerosolized sealant is sprayed inside the house, and with the house pressurized at 100 pa, the sealant will find its way into holes as big as ½ inch in diameter

Air sealing is best applied right after drywall is installed, but can be also be applied after framing inspection, and after the house is built

it depends on factors such as size of house, and tightness at start of process, but typically a seal takes about 3-4 hours

For houses in construction phase, all horizontal surfaces, like window sills, tub ledges, and the like need to be protected, as well as vents and other outside penetrations; for lived-in houses, including previous it would be cabinet doors, finished floors, vents, counter tops, furniture (if they cannot be taken outside of home) and any other finished horizontal surfaces

1 hour after seal would be sufficient for cleanup and sealant dissipation; crews can continue working then

Based on third-party lab tested, Aerobarrier can withstand a 50 year durability test with little or no degradation

Home Tight uses a diagnostic system that measures tightness in ACH 50 and CFM before and after the seal, as well as percentage reduction in air leakage; also, equivalent leakage (in sq. in.) for pre and post seal is measured. Report for the seal can be generated and sent within day of seal

The aerosolized sealant is sprayed inside your ducts, and with the ducts pressurized at 400 pa or higher, the sealant will find its way into holes as big as 5/8 inch in diameter

New builds and retros are good to go! We just need sufficient space where your HVAC is, and a minimum 8’ run from your plenum to our machine

usually about 4-5 hours

we only need to cover the duct registers, so no need for extensive house prep; pregnant women, kids, and pets should be kept away though

Aeroseal has been durability tested to last 40 years

Start and finish CFMs and cumulative leakage in sq.in. will be measured and reported during the same day
