Blower Door & Duct Leakage Testing in Central Florida
BPI Certified Infiltration and Duct Leakage Testing throughout the Southern United States.
Weller Infrared Services provides BPI-certified blower door testing and duct leakage testing primarily throughout Central Florida. We use professional Retrotec equipment combined with infrared thermal imaging to accurately locate air leaks, measure building airtightness, and identify duct system problems.
This service is especially valuable for commercial buildings, multi-family properties, and larger residential projects where energy efficiency, indoor air quality, and code compliance matter.
Service Area for Blower Door & Duct Testing
We focus our blower door and duct leakage testing work in Central Florida (including the Orlando and Tampa Bay regions).
Commerical Clients - Southeast United States
Commercial projects outside this core area are evaluated on a case-by-case basis depending on project size and logistics. Our infrared thermal imaging and other diagnostic services continue to be available throughout the Southern United States.
Building Air Leakage Testing
Our blower door and duct testing equipment locates air leakage due to cracks and missing or damaged sealants in buildings — this could be a major problem in hot, humid climates. Cold air can interact with the hot and humid outdoor air causing condensation issues in windows, walls and attics. This in turn can cause air quality issues and structural decay. A major cause of high energy bills in the summer months is often due to air leakage in building structures. Another common issue is damaged HVAC duct systems that have loose or broken connections that have leaked for years, without the building owner's knowledge of the problem.
Building and Duct Leakage Testing
The building or duct system is depressurized using a Retrotec blower door or duct tester along with a sophisticated computer program that calculates the total air leakage in square foot calculations. This helps the client visualize the total amount of air leakage in their building. Infrared thermal imaging is also used to demonstrate to the client where the air leakage is occurring.
FAQ
Is blower door testing required in Florida?
Yes. Florida Building Code requires blower door testing for most new residential construction and many additions to verify airtightness and energy efficiency.
Do you only serve Central Florida?
We focus our blower door and duct leakage testing in Central Florida (Orlando and Tampa Bay regions). Larger commercial projects outside this area are evaluated case-by-case.
Why combine blower door testing with infrared?
Infrared thermal imaging shows exactly where air is leaking while the building is under pressure, making the results clearer and more actionable.
Is this service useful for commercial buildings?
Yes. Commercial and multi-family properties often benefit the most because air leakage and duct problems can significantly affect energy costs, comfort, and indoor air quality.

We have the Training
Our system of nondestructive testing requires both skill and knowledge to accurately interpret the information gathered. Many companies will purchase a thermal imaging camera but fail to invest in the necessary training. Thermal imaging is not a "point and shoot" technology. Weller Infrared Services has been trained and has received a Level 3 certification from the Infraspection Institute. Our training is in accordance with ASNT Recommended Practice No. SNT-TC-1A Personnel Qualification and Certification in Nondestructive Testing, 2016 Edition.
