The videos listed below are intended as a refresher for previous attendees of FSEC's Florida Weatherization training course. The videos demonstrate testing methods that weatherization inspectors need to perform in order to determine the appropriate weatherization measures needed, and to ensure the safe operation of the house.

Initial Safety Check
The steps shown here should be performed prior to any other testing. |

Zonal Pressure Test
This test is used to determine the location of the air barrier — or in other words, if the zone is "inside" or "outside." |
 |
Blower Door Test
This test is used to determine the air tightness of the building. |
 |
Pressure Pan Test
This test evaluates the duct system and determines if there is duct leakage. |

Door Closure Effect
This test is used to determine if a pressure relief mechanism (i.e. jump duct) is needed when a door is closed. |
 |

— Gas Stove and Dryer
This test is used to determine if the Carbon Monoxide (CO) level is safe when the appliance is in operation.

Carbon Monoxide Testing
— Gas Water Heater
This test is used to determine if the Carbon Monoxide (CO) level is safe when the appliance is in operation. |
 |
Combustion Appliance Zone (CAZ) Testing —
Without a Fireplace
This test is used to determine the worst case depressurization scenario of a house without a fireplace. |
 |
Combustion Appliance Zone (CAZ) Testing —
With a Fireplace
This test is used to determine the worst cast depressurization scenario of a house with a fireplace. |
