Hello everyone,

we built a semi-detached house and now there are drafts in the house at times. We built a KfW70 house, at least according to the construction description. Does anyone know when the construction company (we had a turnkey contract) is required to conduct a blower door test to check the airtightness? Where is this obligation stated?

Thank you very much and best regards

Good morning,

with our supplier(s), it was always included in the offer. I will also include it in the purchase contract.
Therefore, I assume that the construction company is not obligated to provide it.

Wouldn't it be easier to hire a building surveyor?
