Continuity is crucial for an effective air barrier. To ensure continuity:

• Coordinate with other trades: Collaborate with other professionals to ensure that the air barrier is integrated into the overall building design and construction process seamlessly.
• Plan for building movement: Account for potential building movement, such as expansion and contraction, in the air barrier design and installation to maintain continuity over time.
• Inspect and test: Once the air barrier is installed, perform visual inspections and, if necessary, air leakage testing to verify its continuity and effectiveness. Make any necessary repairs or adjustments to address identified issues.
• Document the installation: Keep records of the air barrier installation process, including photographs and written descriptions, to facilitate future maintenance and repair efforts.
