Our Services – Air Tightness Testing & SAP Calculations

At AirMetric, we specialise in helping builders, developers, and homeowners achieve energy-efficient, regulation-compliant buildings. Our two core services – Air Tightness Testing (Pulse Testing) and SAP Calculations – are designed to improve building performance, reduce energy costs, and ensure compliance with UK Building Regulations.

Air Tightness Testing (Pulse Testing)

​

What is Air Tightness Testing?

Air tightness testing, also known as Pulse Testing, measures how much air leaks through gaps and cracks in a building’s envelope. This test is vital for ensuring compliance with Part L of the Building Regulations and improving overall energy efficiency.

​

Why Choose Pulse Testing?

• Fast and non-disruptive – testing is completed quickly with minimal disturbance.

• Accurate results – identify air leakage rates across your building.

• Improved energy efficiency – reduce heat loss, lower energy bills, and enhance comfort.

​

What We Provide:

• Pulse testing to assess building air permeability.

• Identification of problem areas where sealing or improvement is needed.

• A clear report with practical recommendations to improve airtightness and meet building compliance standards.

• ​

SAP Calculations (Standard Assessment Procedure)

What are SAP Calculations?

SAP Calculations are the government-approved method for assessing the energy efficiency of residential buildings. They are required for new builds, conversions, and major refurbishments to demonstrate compliance with Part L of the Building Regulations.

​

Why SAP Calculations Matter:

• Regulation compliance – essential for obtaining Building Control approval.

• Energy performance insights – understand how insulation, heating, ventilation, and renewable energy affect efficiency.

• Carbon footprint reduction – ensure your project is environmentally responsible.

​

What We Provide:

• A detailed SAP assessment tailored to your project.

• A full report including the property’s Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating.

• Tailored advice to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and meet compliance requirements.

​

Why Work with AirMetric?
