Abstract
The purpose of this study is to investigate an airtightness of typical Korean detached houses with field measurements. Air leakage testings by means of blower door test in accordance with ASTM E79-8 were measured in 22 detached dwellings in Daejeon and Geumsan. The results showed that detached dwellings have an average airtightness with ACH50/20 (air chang per hour at a pressure difference of 50 Pa between inside outside) of 0.82 $hr^{-1}$ which is a higher range than for typical apartments and leakage class G by normalized leakage area of ASHRAE.
