Metro Atlanta Home Performance Testing, Diagnosis & Comfort Solutions Specalist
Blower Door Testing, Duct System Optimization, Energy Audits, Air Sealing, & IAQ Testing.
Buildings may be designed the same and look the same, but they are pushed to the limit differently by occupants and the elements of nature. There is no magic cure-all products that fixes mold issues, dust, odors, comfort issues, airflow problems, pressure-induced leaks, poor construction, or poor HVAC design.

Everyday The Elements Of Nature Fight To Destroy Your Home
Home Performance & Beyond
Serving clients throughout Metro Atlanta, we provide independent home performance services for new and existing properties.
Our services include third-party testing and verification, energy audits, performance audits, performance inspections, HVAC diagnostics, duct system evaluations, and whole-house air leakage testing to help identify conditions affecting comfort, indoor air quality, energy efficiency, and overall building performance.
With everything becoming more expensive, energy usage is always a concern. Insufficient insulation, lack of air sealing, poor HVAC installation, and poorly designed duct systems continue to plague many Atlanta-area homes.
A properly designed HVAC and duct system, combined with effective insulation and targeted air sealing, can significantly improve comfort and efficiency. Proper ventilation and humidity control are equally important. Controlling the elements is essential to maintaining a healthy home.
Creating A Healthy Home
A healthy home is essential to protecting occupant health, indoor air and environmental quality, and long-term building durability. By controlling air leakage, moisture migration, and contaminant pathways, we help reduce exposure to airborne pollutants, limit conditions that support microbial growth, and minimize the risk of secondary damage and hidden health issues.
Fixing The House & The Systems
After years in HVAC, construction, and property maintenance, I saw how poor contractor workmanship and neglect can affect a home. That experience led us to approach every project by looking at the house as a system.
Our inspections and analysis give homeowners clear information about how their home is performing and what needs to be improved. That helps avoid costly mistakes, unnecessary repairs, and changes that solve one problem while creating another.
A house should provide comfort, healthy conditions, peace of mind, stability, and durability. When the systems are not working together, the whole home is affected. Fixing the house as a system is the only way to create a desired outcome and lasting results.
Our Goal Is To Help You Get It Right
The decision to repair or replace should be made by the person investing in the home, not by a contractor using pressure or fear to make the company mandated upselling procedures. Honest recommendations should be based on proper inspection, diagnostics, and testing facts. Applying a solution without accurate testing and diagnostic information is no different than prescribing a treatment protocol without first identifying the underlying condition. It is an irresponsible practice that increases misdiagnosis, ineffective expensive repairs, secondary property damage, and potentially harmful to occupants.
Putting Standards & Integrity Into Comfort.
Performance Inspection
A non-invasive home inspection designed to identify visible or operational issues affecting comfort, airflow, moisture, ventilation, or HVAC performance. We evaluate how your home functions as a system — looking for problems that impact performance, not just surface-level defects.
- Buying or selling a home
- Maintenance issues
- Visible defects
- Safety concerns
Energy Audits
An energy audit is a thorough evaluation of how your home uses and loses energy. We identify where efficiency can be improved, utility costs reduced, and system performance enhanced showing you exactly where energy is being lost and which fixes will deliver real results.
- Rebate Programs
- High Energy Bills
- Weatherization
- Comfort Concerns
Performance Audit
A Performance Audit is an advanced building performance evaluation that examines how your home functions as a complete system. Beyond energy efficiency, we investigate comfort, airflow, moisture control, indoor air quality, pressure relationships, and HVAC system performance uncovering the root causes of issues and showing you what’s really affecting how your home performs.
- Home Performance Issues
- Heath & Safety Concerns
- Building Failures
- HVAC systems not performing properly
- Comfort issues despite repairs or upgrades
- Need for detailed building performance diagnostics
Inspection, Evaluations Diagnosis & Testing
Our inspections, performance testing and comfort resolutons follow industry approved codes, standards and guidelines. The opportunity for achieving comfort and beyond in new construction should never be missed. It can also be achieved and maintained in existing homes.
GA. Code Compliance
D.E.T Verifying
(Duct & Envelope Tightness Verification)
Georgia’s 2015 Energy Code and 2024 Amendments (GA Supplements and Amendments) require a blower door test and duct leakage test on new builds and some retrofits.
TruResults Home Services recommends that all new construction be tested before drywall and insulation are completed. Air sealing and adjustments are far easier to accomplish before the exterior and interior are finished — and mistakes made at this stage can be very expensive and labor-intensive to correct later.
D.E.T Verifying is a pass-or-fail test. If a home fails, we work with homeowners, builders, and contractors to identify solutions and achieve a passing score.
By performing D.E.T Verifying, builders, investors, and homeowners can identify problem areas that impact energy efficiency, comfort, indoor air quality, and overall building performance. These tests help reduce energy loss, improve comfort, and support long-term durability by limiting unwanted air infiltration.
We are able to diagnose and provide solutions if a building does not pass, TruResults Home Services works with builders, contractors, and homeowners to identify solutions that help achieve code compliance and improve overall system performance.

D.E.T. Verifying (Duct and Envelope Tightness)
TruResults Home Services recommend conducting blower door and duct leakage tests before drywall and insulation are completed. Testing at this stage allows corrections and air sealing to be made properly, ensuring the home meets code requirements before it’s too late.
D.E.T. Verifying is a pass-or-fail test designed to meet Georgia Energy Code standards. If a test fails, we work with homeowners, builders, and contractors to identify solutions and achieve a passing score. Failing a test can delay the Certificate of Occupancy and create compliance issues.
Blower door testing is a key component in achieving airtightness, which is essential for meeting and exceeding energy efficiency standards.
Blower Door Testing
A blower door test measures building envelope airtightness and quantifies air leakage. The results help identify leakage pathways and evaluate factors affecting energy performance, thermal comfort, indoor air quality, building durability, construction quality, and code compliance.
Duct Leakage Testing
A duct leakage test quantifies air leakage within the duct system and evaluates the performance of the air distribution network. The results help identify leakage pathways and assess factors affecting airflow, HVAC performance, energy efficiency, installation quality, and code compliance.
The Comfort Making Device.
HVAC Testing, Diagnosis & System Commissioning
Your HVAC system is the heart of the home. It should be diagnosed, tested, and sized properly. We provide room-by-room airflow testing, static pressure and airflow diagnostics, duct inspections, HVAC diagnosis, load calculations, and commissioning verification to help improve comfort and performance.
Indoor Air Quality Is An Action
Filtration, Ventilation & Dehumidification
Ventilation, filtration, and dehumidification all play a major role in the comfort and health of your home. We evaluate how your home breathes, how your system filters the air, and what may be affecting indoor air quality and overall HVAC performance so you can move forward with better comfort, cleaner air, and real solutions.
Whole-Home Air Sealing & Duct Sealing
Poor building envelope and duct sealing can allow dangerous and unhealthy air to move through the home, carrying dust, moisture, pollutants, attic particles, crawlspace air, garage fumes, and other contaminants into the living space. Proper sealing helps protect health and safety by reducing exposure to unwanted pollutants, improving indoor air quality, controlling moisture, and helping the HVAC system deliver cleaner, safer air.
Exterior & Interior
AIR SEALING
Interior and exterior air sealing can include windows, doors, attic hatches, recessed lights, plumbing and wiring penetrations, top plates, bottom plates, duct boot connections, register gaps, chase openings, fireplace surrounds, vent terminations, outdoor fixtures, rim joists, and other visible leakage points around the home.
Controlling Leakage
DUCT SEALING
Duct leakage and duct system components can include supply and return plenums, trunk lines, branch runs, takeoffs, boots, air handler connections, filter grilles, register connections, panned returns, duct seams, joints, and other visible leakage points throughout the duct system.
