The team removed the chimney stacks completely, cutting out a major cold bridge and source of
air infiltration in one swoop.
The better - than - average air sealing helps reduce heat loss due to
air infiltration in this home.
Not exact matches
Additionally, the greater
air infiltration rates of open cases typically result
in more frequent defrost problems, which can then mean more service calls.
Considering the Black Ops title, we were expecting more stealth and
infiltration missions to, but almost all of the engagements were done
in the open
air.
In a range of naturally ventilated homes with airtightness ranging from 5 to 20 ach @ 50Pa, winter
air exchange rates were estimated to vary between 0.2 and 0.7 ach — and the ventilation rate was not closely related to airtightness, which casts doubt on the long standing assumption that
infiltration can be seen as part of the ventilation strategy.2

in a 1924 House
in Downtown Eugene, Bartley, Menne, Vernia An interesting and somewhat humorous case study on an older leaky home.
Last but not least, it costs less to operate because there is virtually no heat loss (or heat gain
in the summer) due to uncontrolled
air infiltration.
However, soon after moving
in we noticed drafts where the wood meets mortar -
air infiltration.
Leaky supply ducts located
in attics or vented crawlspaces lead to the uncontrolled depressurization of the conditioned space, leading to excessive
infiltration of cold
air during heating periods, increasing heating loads and potentially supplying sufficient interior moisture to attic and roof assemblies to create roof sheathing moisture and decay problems.
Leaky supply ducts located
in attics or vented crawlspaces lead to the depressurization of the conditioned space, which leads to the
infiltration of exterior warm, moisture - laden
air that often creates moisture problems and increases cooling loads.
«The test results demonstrate that there is no difference
in air infiltration between new windows and restored pre-war windows.»

As an example of the context
in which R - value should be placed, 25 % to 40 % of a typical building's energy use can often be attributed to
air infiltration, and
air conditioning loads are often dominated by solar heat gain.
This results
in superior
air quality, and the prime insulation creates minimal outdoor noise
