Inspection Details and Readiness

Record the building area, level, gridline, room number, or elevation being inspected.
Approved drawings, details, or scope documents are available at the inspection point.
All intended air barrier work in the area is complete and visible before enclosure covering.
Temporary obstructions, debris, or materials do not prevent inspection of the air barrier line and transitions.

Air Barrier Continuity

Air barrier is continuous from one assembly to the next with no visible breaks, unsealed joints, or open seams.
Transitions at dissimilar materials, substrate changes, and assembly junctions are fully sealed and supported.
Corners, perimeter edges, and terminations are neatly detailed without fishmouths, wrinkles, or loose edges.
Observed air barrier location matches the intended continuous plane shown in the project details.

Tapes, Sealants, and Membrane Detailing

Tape is fully bonded with no lifting, edge curl, bridging, or visible contamination at the bond line.
Sealant is continuous at joints and interfaces with no skips, voids, or unsealed segments.
Membrane overlaps meet project requirements and are fully rolled, pressed, or otherwise secured as specified.
Substrates appear clean, dry, and free of dust, oil, frost, or debris that could compromise adhesion.

Penetrations and Openings

All visible MEP penetrations through the air barrier are sealed with compatible materials and no visible gaps remain.
Perimeter joints, rough openings, and interface details are sealed and integrated with adjacent air barrier materials.
Observed fasteners, anchors, or attachments do not create unsealed penetrations or discontinuities in the air barrier plane.
Where fire-rated assemblies or penetrations are present, air sealing appears coordinated with the required firestopping detail.

Blower-Door Readiness and Closeout

Any gaps, loose tape, unsealed penetrations, or incomplete details are recorded as deficiencies or non-conformances.
The inspected area appears ready for blower-door testing without known unresolved air leakage paths in the visible scope.
Photos were taken for representative conditions, critical details, and any deficiencies requiring corrective action.
