Aeroseal and Aerobarrier are both subsidiaries of Aeroseal, developed to seal existing ducts. Both systems use compressed air to aerosolize a water-based sealant.
AeroBarrier
utilizes a fan door to force the sealant into gaps and crevices, where it accumulates and blocks airflow. On the other hand, AeroBarrier injects an aerosol sealant into a pressurized space through a ventilation door.Our patented software and sensors take care of the rest, including real-time pressure measurements. This allows contractors to have full control over the desired level of airtightness of the envelope and reduce leaks. Aerobarrier is an aerosol sealant that fills all gaps smaller than ½ inch in just a few hours. The process uses a door with a fan to pressurize the building and automatic sprayers to create a mist of acrylic sealant inside the building.
As this fog travels through the air escape routes, it crosses the gaps in the building envelope, where it accumulates at the edges of the openings. After a few hours, the sealant fills all the gaps. This new approach can change the nature of air sealing process and make it stop being an art and become a science. The acrylic sealant used in Aerobarrier is the same basic material that has been used for decades in Aeroseal's duct sealing system. Aerosol sealing is extremely effective at sealing narrow gaps and extremely small holes that are generally not cost-effective to seal manually or that cannot be closed with manual sealing techniques. For 20 years, Aeroseal has been commercializing a technique for sealing air ducts from the inside with an aerosol mist, eliminating leaks that degrade the performance of air conditioning systems and waste energy.
This method is known as aerosol sealing, and it is becoming increasingly popular among contractors due to its effectiveness and cost-effectiveness. The main difference between Aeroseal and Aerobarrier is that Aeroseal seals ducts from the inside while Aerobarrier seals buildings from the outside. Both systems use compressed air to aerosolize a water-based sealant, but AeroBarrier utilizes a fan door to force the sealant into gaps and crevices, where it accumulates and blocks airflow. On the other hand, AeroBarrier injects an aerosol sealant into a pressurized space through a ventilation door. Aeroseal is ideal for sealing ducts from the inside, while Aerobarrier is perfect for sealing buildings from the outside. Both systems use compressed air to aerosolize a water-based sealant, but they differ in how they apply it.
With Aeroseal, contractors can quickly and easily seal ducts from within, while with Aerobarrier they can quickly and easily seal buildings from outside. In conclusion, both Aeroseal and Aerobarrier are effective solutions for sealing existing ducts or buildings from air leakage. While they both use compressed air to aerosolize a water-based sealant, they differ in how they apply it. With Aeroseal, contractors can quickly and easily seal ducts from within, while with Aerobarrier they can quickly and easily seal buildings from outside.
