DET TESTING

Metro Garage Door is certified to perform DET Verification Testing on new construction residential  homes.  This testing includes a “Blower Door Test” to determine the tightness of the conditioned portion of the home.  It also includes a ’Duct Blast Test” which determines the air leakage within the HVAC, ducts and vents. 

Typically, when a DET test is being done, it is advisable for a contractor have an individual present that can address any issues that may arise that result in the inability to verify a home.  Should a home not pass the test while the verifier is present, it will require a second test in order to obtain verification.
