What is the Building Envelope?
Separates interior and exterior of a building• Floor• Foundation• Walls• Ceiling• Roof
Components that penetrate the building• Windows• Doors• Vents• Electrical Boxes• Pipes

Building Envelope Impacts
• Barrier between conditioned inside air and unconditioned outside air
• Significant impact on passive heat lost and gained by the building
• Passive heat transfer increases the load on the HVAC system

From Hot to Cold
Heat flows from hotter areas to colder areas.
The bigger the temperature difference the faster it moves.

Infiltration Through Gaps
• Leaks around windows and doors• Broken window seals, latches and panes• Open doors and windows• Old windows and doors• Vents that do not close properly, if at all • Leaky heating and cooling ducts• Inadequate insulation (thin, sparse, gaps)• Leaks between floor, wall, ceiling, roof

Quantifying Infiltrative Heat Loss
• Can calculate infiltrative heat loss from single measurable opening
• Cannot calculate total infiltration because of gaps in inaccessible building cavities
• For high-cost projects, heat loss can be quantified through blower door analysis
• Use thermal imaging of heat loss for prioritization

Low-cost/No-cost Fixes
• Weather-seal doors, windows, electrical outlets, other openings
• Repair dampers • Keep windows and doors closed• Use kitchen exhaust fan only when
needed• Repair leaks in ductwork

Evaluating Return on Investment
• Obtain reasonable estimates of heat lost or gained
• Investigate material and labor costs
• Determine time of payback

Building Envelope Summary
• Building envelope is the barrier between conditioned and unconditioned space
• Heat transfer generally increases the load on the HVAC system
• Materials used and tightness of the structure affect the rate of heat transfer
• Conduct a thorough analysis to quantify energy wasted before implementing large capital projects
