Air Tightness Testing

Air tightness testing is a key step in assessing the energy efficiency and regulatory compliance of new buildings under Part L of the Building Regulations. We provide fast, accredited testing across the UK to keep your project on track and fully compliant.

Air testing is a legal requirement for new buildings under Part L of the Building Regulations. At KP Acoustics, our technicians deliver Accredited Air Tightness Testing across the UK for all types of domestic and non-domestic buildings.

This service forms a key part of our end-to-end compliance offering, and when combined with SAP Calculations (for domestic buildings) and SBEM Calculations (for non-domestic buildings), we provide a seamless route to full Building Regulations compliance.

Our promise

Nationwide Coverage – we operate across the UK, delivering air testing for everything from single dwellings to large commercial developments.

Fast turnaround time – We respond to all enquiries within one working day, with flexible scheduling to suit your build programme.

Fully Accredited – you can be confident that our report will be accepted and fully compliant with all Building Control Bodies throughout the UK.

Accurate results – We carry out on-site testing and provide immediate feedback, helping you understand your building’s air permeability and what steps—if any—are needed to meet compliance.
