The Residential Construction Demonstration Project was designed to test innovative energy efficient construction techniques in electrically heated residential buildings. The first construction cycle of the program focused on innovative ventilation systems, air-tight construction and high R-value walls. The RCDP includes a data gathering and analysis component in order to evaluate the cost efficiency of the various innovations being tested. This report focuses on the data collected on the air sealing component of the project. The data gathering for the air tightening component of the project consisted of performing fan pressurization (blower door) tests on each house shortly after the home was constructed. This information was combined with information from a detailed site audit to evaluate the relative ''tightness'' of the homes and the probable causes of variations in performance. 14 figs., 3 tabs.
