AeroBarrier provides the most effective building envelope air sealing solution for single family homes, making it easier and more cost effective to achieve your air sealing goal – for any air leakage requirement from building code to Energy Star, Zero Energy Ready, Net Zero, or Passive House. Our automated solution eliminates most manual air sealing, and confirms you've achieved your air sealing goal using a continuous blower door test as the AeroBarrier installation is completed. The AeroBarrier sealant is GREENGUARD Gold certified with ultra low VOC's, making it very safe to use. Work by other trades can resume 30 minutes after installation is complete.
AeroBarrier provides extremely effective multifamily building envelope air sealing for both the exterior envelope and compartmentalization sealing of party walls. Any air leakage requirement is easily achieved and guaranteed, eliminates the inconsistencies of manual air sealing, and is immediately verified with an Envelope Sealing Report upon completion of the AeroBarrier sealing through a continuous blower door test used during the process. AeroBarrier's sealant is GREENGUARD Gold certified, with ultra low VOC's. Envelope Sealing Reports are provided for each multifamily living unit sealed and compartmentalized.
AeroBarrier provides architects, high performance building consultants, contractors, and developers with Guaranteed Air Sealing Made Easy for the building envelopes and compartmentalization of non-residential buildings. Our automated technology simplifies building envelope and shared wall air sealing, is more effective than current manual methods while also being lower cost, and guarantees that you will achieve your air infiltration goal. A continuous blower door test is run as part of the installation process, providing an Envelope Sealing Report confirming your air leakage goal has been met while our installing subcontractor is still on the jobsite. AeroBarrier's sealant is GREENGUARD Gold certified, with ultra low VOC's, and is very safe for job site environments.
Aeroseal Envelope's building envelope air sealing solution, AeroBarrier, ensures that you will achieve your air tightness goal every time. Our automated technology simplifies building envelope air sealing, is more effective than current manual methods while also being lower cost and is verified with a continuous blower door test run during the sealing process. AeroBarrier has proven success in multifamily and commercial buildings, as well as single family homes for both the exterior envelope and compartmentalization air sealing of party walls.
AeroBarrier's air sealing system pressurizes a space using a blower door and fan, then sprays an atomized sealant mist into that space, causing the sealant to follow the pressurized air escaping through leaks in the building envelope and sealing those leaks as the sealant passes through them. A blower door test is run continuously during the sealing process, providing air leakage results every 60 seconds and verifying that the air sealing goal has been met before our installing subcontractor leaves the job site.

GOALReduce energy consumption by 50% in a cost-effective manner to allow the solar-powered, all electric community to reach its goals
PRE LEAKAGE10 ACH50 average per unit
POST LEAKAGE< 1 ACH50 per unit
RESULTSThe design team did not overcompensate HVAC system size to hit performance goals, cutting HVAC costs in half and saving upfront capital. This helped qualified the project for rebates delivering a 150% return on investment. The impact of this air sealing technology has made AeroBarrier a standard on every Wasatch Group project.
