DESNZ requires results from real air pressure tests to validate the proposed infiltration methodology to be used for the Home Energy Model. A test data sample size of approx of 70,000 test results are needed to validate against is the critical requirement. The larger the sample of results, the more reliable the validation of the HEM methodology will be.
