US DOE Midwest Regional Weatherization Conference
Air On The Move
The Delta-Q test for duct leakage has undergone several
modifications in recent years. This session presents the results from a recent project evaluating Delta-Q for possible use in Midwest weatherization
programs. This project included an evaluation of test accuracy as well as the ease-of-use by weatherization staff.
By attending this session, participants will
- Learn about the accuracy of the Delta-Q test for duct
leakage in homes
- Find out how the Delta-Q test is done
- Explore the
findings regarding the appropriateness of the test for weatherization use
