1) Fix the Frame and fan on the opening of door.

2) Pressurize the room with the help of variable speed fan.
3) Take the reading for flow and pressure.
4) Depressurize the room with the help of variable speed fan.
5) Take the reading of flow and pressure.
6) Feed all the information in the software.
7) Software will give the result for pass or fail.
8) Minimum retention time to pass the room should be 10 minutes.
9) If 10 minutes retention time is not achieved then find the leakage in th
e room.
Seal all the leakages and retest the above test.

REMARKS
1 Check the room to ensure that the size of the room as per final design.
2 Is there any suspended ceiling. Either open few ceiling tile to calculat
e the ceiling leakage. If Main Room leakage to be measured separately then put p
lastic on grills and opening.
