3.4 FIELD TESTING** NOTE TO SPECIFIER ** Coordinate article below with conditions of the contract and with division 01 quality control. Testing equipment shall be calibrated per Section 9 of ASTM E1105: Standard Test Method for Field Determination of Water Penetration of Installed Exterior Windows, Skylights, Doors and Curtain Walls, by Uniform or Cyclic Static Air Pressure Difference, where the water test pressure shall be run at 2/3 (0.667) of the water test pressure used to achieve the products rated design pressure. The numbers of products tested shall be agreed and written in the project specification and shall not exceed 1 percent of the total number of openings unless specified otherwise.

A. General: Test units per the following procedures:1. Inspect units and verify installation per Manufacturer's instructions.2. For products installed less than 6 months, comply with AAMA 502-08 Voluntary

Specification for Field Testing of Windows and Sliding Glass Doors, Procedure B.3. For products installed longer than 6 months, comply with AAMA 511-08: Voluntary

Guideline for Forensic Water Penetration Testing of Fenestration Products. If test
