Window Airtightness

Window Airtightness is a performance metric that quantifies the resistance of a window assembly to uncontrolled air leakage under specified pressure differentials, distinguishing it from other envelope components by focusing specifically on the perimeter and operational joint integrity of glazed fenestration systems.
