Luftdichtheit der Gebäudehülle (6 UE)

In connection with airtightness, we often hear the topic of mould or the demand for "breathing houses". We therefore start by explaining why airtightness is important.

In contrast to the statutory minimum standard, particularly good airtightness is even a MUST for passive houses.

Stricter requirements apply to the implementation of the differential pressure method in accordance with DIN EN 13829, which is used to measure the airtightness of the building.

How this works and what influence the result has is discussed in detail.

In the final section, we look at what you need to consider when planning and constructing a building to ensure that it is airtight.

The German Energy Agency (dena) recognises the "Airtightness" learning module with 6 UE (teaching units).
