This week we welcomed our favorite Nittany Lion (and the only one we know) for a presentation on Air Barrier Systems. Roy Schauffele, FCSI, CCPR, LEED Green Associate, set about defining the parts of an air barrier system - understanding the benefits of the systems to the environment, building owners and occupants; understanding codes and testing relating to air barrier systems and reviewing plans and specs to ensure the air barrier system is properly designed to eliminate air leakage. Schauffele noted that the benefits of an air barrier system are to conserve energy, lower initial construction costs, reduce maintenance costs and improve indoor air quality.
