Field Testing for Water Penetration in Fenestration Systems
Presented by the Fenestration & Glazing Industry Alliance
Once products have been installed, how can you confirm they are performing as intended? Aaron Blom, FGIA Technical Training Specialist, will share insights from AAMA 503, Voluntary Specification for Field Testing of Newly Installed Storefronts, Curtain Walls and Sloped Glazing Systems. This FGIA document outlines test methods for evaluating the performance of newly installed storefronts, curtain walls and sloped glazing systems, and these tests provide reasonable assurance that the installed product is performing to the required air leakage and/or water penetration performance levels.
