INTRODUCTION/ INLEIDING
SOUTH AFRICA HAS EMBARKED ON A PROCESS OF REDUCING ENERGY CONSUMPTION IN THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT/
SUID-AFRIKA HET BEGIN MET 'N PROSES VAN VERMINDERING VAN ENERGIEVERBRUIK IN DIE BOU OMGEWING
 SEALING THE BUILDING ENVELOPE/ VERSEËLING VAN GEBOU
PREVENTS WARM AIR FROM ESCAPING AND COOL AIR FROM INFILTRATING/ VERHOED WARM LUG OM TE ONTSNAP
EN KOEL LUG UIT TE FILTREER
