PLEIAQ is involved in the European and international platforms TightVent in partnership with INIVE.

In this context, Valerie Leprince coordinates TAAC (Tightvent Airtigthness Association Committee) meetings. This network brings together associations, universities and industries to share information on approaches, methods and products to improve building and ductwork airtightness while securing adequate ventilation. Various publications have been made through surveys performed in the context of TAAC:

• COMPARISON OF BUILDING PREPARATION RULES FOR AIRTIGHTNESS TESTING IN 11 EUROPEAN COUNTRIES
• Ventilation Information Paper n° 37: Impact of Energy Policies on Building and Ductwork Airtightness
• Building and ductwork airtightness requirements in Europe (Rehva Journal)

PLEIAQ has technically supported BCCA in the implementation of the quality framework for airtightness testing. Two articles have been presented at the AIVC conferences

• Quality framework for airtightness testing in Flemish Region of Belgium - feedback after three years of experience (AIVC 2018)
• Quality framework for residential ventilation systems in Flemish Region in Belgium -feedback after three years' experience (AIVC 2019)
