The AeroBarrier Connect air sealing system introduces a new era of efficiency and precision with its redesigned modular structure. By optimizing setup, sealing, and cleanup, the system allows builders, contractors, and energy raters to enhance their productivity by completing multiple air-sealing projects daily, consistently meeting inspection standards.
“This is a complete redesign, driven by extensive customer feedback and field performance data,” stated Amit Gupta, CEO of Aeroseal, LLC, the parent company of AeroBarrier. “Our teams were relentless in creating a solution that delivers ultra-precise airtightness, faster than ever before. This is critical to making our technology a cost-effective option for residential, multifamily, and commercial projects.”
Streamlined Air Sealing Process
The modular design of AeroBarrier Connect enhances both the speed and simplicity of set-up and clean-up.
Each smart nozzle station incorporates its own sealant and water reservoirs, significantly reducing hose requirements and enabling integrated flushing for rapid system cleaning.
Precision with Smart Nozzle Stations
Equipped with advanced sensors to gauge temperature and humidity, each smart nozzle station tailors sealant delivery per room requirements, ensuring efficient use and minimizing waste. Progress is constantly monitored through a mesh network, reinforcing the precision of the sealing process.
Mobility and Flexibility
AeroBarrier Connect's full-service trailer, featuring an electronic air compressor and an industrial-grade diesel generator, facilitates air sealing at any location without relying on a site's power supply, ensuring uninterrupted operation.
Operational Mechanics of AeroBarrier Connect
The system identifies and seals leaks, visible or minute, up to ½ inch. After deploying the smart nozzle stations, the building is pressurized using a blower door, and a mist of non-toxic sealant particles is dispersed based on room-specific heat and humidity.
The software manages the process in real-time, permitting customization to exact project specifications. Upon completion, a certificate detailing pre- and post-seal conditions is generated for record-keeping.
Positive First Impressions in the Industry
Contractors like AeroBarrier West, Midwest AeroBarrier, and US Ceiling Corp, granted early access, report overwhelming interest and positive feedback across North America. "AeroBarrier Connect is a game-changer," according to Mike Lyon, COO of Midwest AeroBarrier.
"The new design allows us to air seal more projects - easily and efficiently. AeroBarrier Connect is great for multifamily projects. We can compartmentalize units faster than ever, reaching airtightness goals every time."
Unveiled at the virtual International Builder's Show, AeroBarrier Connect gained recognition as "Most Innovative Software" in the 2021 Best of IBSx awards, assessed on Innovation, Functionality, Good Design, and Builder/Consumer Friendliness.
With a simpler, modular design, the AeroBarrier Connect air sealing system makes setup, sealing, and cleanup faster and more efficient than ever before. In fact, it allows builders, contractors, and energy raters to seal more buildings each day, with precise, measured results that always pass inspection.

Impacts Entire Air Sealing Process
Modular Design Ensures Fast, Simple Setup and Cleanup
Each smart nozzle station has its own sealant and water reservoirs. This decreases the number of hoses needed and allows for integrated flushing to clean the entire system in minutes.
Smart Nozzle Stations Seal with Precision
Each smart nozzle station is equipped with temperature and humidity sensors to customize sealant delivery to each room. This ensures each room receives the exact amount of sealant required to seal its leaks. Using a mesh network, they relay progress in real-time, to ensure less sealant waste and faster air sealing.
Full-Service Trailer Allows Work from Anywhere
With an electronic air compressor and a separate compartment for an industrial-grade, diesel generator, air sealing can be done anywhere with AeroBarrier Connect — without delay or using a site’s power source.
How AeroBarrier Connect Works
AeroBarrier Connect seals leaks visible or not, up to ½”, and as small as a human hair
Once the smart nozzle stations are deployed throughout a building, the space is pressurized using a blower door and high-powered centrifugal fan.
A mist of safe, non-toxic sealant particles based on each room’s heat and humidity is delivered and automatically drawn to any leaks.
AeroBarrier Connect seals leaks visible or not, up to ½”, and as small as a human hair. The software monitors the entire process in real-time, allowing airtightness to be dialed in to a project’s exact requirements. A certificate of completion with before and after results is then created for construction records.
Immediate, Positive Industry Reaction
Three contractors have had early access to AeroBarrier Connect. AeroBarrier West, Midwest AeroBarrier and US Ceiling Corp are all using the new technology. And based on their reports, demand from contractors and energy raters across North America has been unprecedented.
“AeroBarrier Connect is a game-changer,” said Mike Lyon, Chief Operating Officer of Midwest AeroBarrier. “The new design allows us to air seal more projects – easily and efficiently. AeroBarrier Connect is great for multifamily projects. We can compartmentalize units faster than ever, reaching airtightness goals every time.”
Launching at the virtual, International Builder’s Show, AeroBarrier Connect has also been recognized as “Most Innovative Software” in the 2021 Best of IBSx awards. The criteria used to select the air sealing system from more than 200 other entrants included: Innovation, Functionality, Good Design, and Builder/Consumer Friendliness.
