Prepare One Duct Section for Leakage Testing

Sealing, Leakage, Mastic & Pressure Testing⚠️ VERIFYField workflow

Core Answer

Isolate the exact section, secure every temporary opening, verify the duct is supported, and walk all joints before the test equipment is connected.

Can we walk the test boundaries together before the rig connects so I know every cap, door, damper, and temporary opening is accounted for?

Do not pressurize an undefined section or rely on tape-only caps that can release under pressure.

A missed opening or weak temporary closure can fail the test, damage work, or become a struck-by hazard.

Verify against: project leakage-test plan, drawings/specs, test contractor and foreman direction.
