SHOREVIEW, MINNESOTA, USA, February 26, 2015 /EINPresswire.com/ -- TSI-Alnor, a leading manufacturer of ventilation test instrumentation, announces that Balometer® Capture Hoods are now certified by the California Energy Commission (CEC) for use in residential air balancing and troubleshooting. With this certification, the TSI-Alnor Balometer Capture Hoods are recognized as meeting performance guidelines as outlined under the 2013 California Building Efficiency Standards (Title 24, Part 6) Section 100.0 (h), residential Appendices Section RA3.3.2.1 and RA3.7.3.

Since 1975, the CEC has been responsible for reducing California’s electricity and natural gas demand through adoption of specific energy policies and standards. Every three years the CEC revises the minimum standards to ensure they are technically and economically feasible. In the residential market, working with Home Energy Raters, the state mandates specific energy ratings in residential buildings. These measurements can be achieved by various methods including measuring airflow in homes using CEC approved equipment.
