Who We Serve

Testing That Helps You
Pass, Prove, and Improve.

Builders

Need clean documentation before final inspection? We provide fast, independent testing and reports your inspector can understand.

HVAC Contractors

Need duct leakage verification? We test, document, and help catch issues before they become callbacks.

Homeowners

Want proof your home is tight, efficient, and performing the way it should? We give you real numbers, not guesses.

What We Test

Testing &
Verification

We measure building performance and provide clear, inspection-ready documentation. Whether you need to pass final inspection, verify HVAC performance, or diagnose comfort problems, we give you real numbers you can stand behind.

The Science

We make the
invisible measurable.

Air leaks, duct leakage, missing insulation, and thermal bypasses are often invisible until they create failed inspections, comfort complaints, high energy bills, or callbacks.

  • Blower door testing shows how tight the home is.
  • Duct leakage testing shows how much conditioned air is being lost.
  • Thermal imaging helps locate hidden performance issues.
  • Reports provide clean documentation for your project file.

Problems We Find

Before They Become
Expensive.

  • Failed blower door numbers before final inspection
  • Leaky duct systems killing HVAC performance
  • Missing or compressed insulation
  • Air leaks at attic transitions, rim joists, chases, and mechanical penetrations
  • Hot/cold rooms caused by enclosure or duct issues
  • Moisture risks hidden behind “looks fine”
Certified

Testing procedures based on professional training and recognized standards.

Independent

Third-party verification gives builders, HVAC pros, homeowners, and inspectors confidence.

Fast Turnaround

We understand construction schedules and get reports back quickly.

Builder-Friendly

We work with real jobsite timelines and know what inspectors need.

Building-Science Driven

Backed by field experience in insulation, air sealing, and high performance.

Local & Independent — Not a Corporate Chain

Owner-owned and independent — not a publicly-traded national chain. We don’t install what we test, so the results are unbiased and inspection-ready.

FAQ

Questions,
Answered.

Straight answers about what we do and where we work.

What areas does Quantum Building Science & Testing serve?

We serve a roughly 60-mile radius around Zion Crossroads, Virginia, covering nine counties: Louisa, Fluvanna, Albemarle (including Charlottesville), Goochland, Orange, Spotsylvania, Hanover, Henrico, and Greene.

What is a blower door test?

A blower door test measures how airtight a building is by depressurizing it with a calibrated fan and recording air changes per hour (ACH50). It's used for code compliance, energy programs, and verifying air-sealing work on new and existing homes.

Do you provide documentation for inspectors and code compliance?

Yes. We deliver clean, organized reports for inspectors, builders, and homeowners, including blower door results, duct leakage numbers, thermal imaging findings, and energy-rating support for HERS, EarthCraft, and ENERGY STAR.
