However, there is a lack of knowledge in this field in Mediterranean countries. Current Spanish building regulations establish ventilation rates based on ideal airtight envelopes, causing problems of over-ventilation and substantial energy losses. The aim of this paper is to develop a methodology that allows the characterization of the envelope of the housing stock in Spain in order to adjust ventilation rates taking into consideration air leakage. A methodology that is easily applicable to other countries that consider studying the airtightness of the envelope and its energetic behaviour improvement is proposed. A statistical sampling method has been established to determine the dwellings to be tested, considering relevant variables concerning airtightness: climate zone, year of construction, and typology. The air leakage rate is determined using a standardized building pressurization technique according to European Standard EN 13829. A representative case study has been presented as an example of the implementation of the designed methodology and results are compared to preliminary values obtained from the database.This paper presented the methodology under the research project INFILES: Repercusión energética de la permeabilidad al aire de los edificios residenciales en España: estudio y caracterización de sus infiltraciones, funded by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (ref. BIA2015-64321-R). The work of one of the researchers has been possible thanks to the Strategy of Entrepreneurship and Youth Employment, Sistema Nacional de Garantía Juvenil, an initiative of the Ministry of Employment and Social Security, Government of Spain, and the European Social Fund of the European Union.Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing InstituteMinisterio de Economía y Competitividad (España)European CommissionMinisterio de Empleo y Seguridad Social (España)Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas [https://ror.org/02gfc7t72]2020202020182020info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501Publisher's versioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttp://hdl.handle.net/10261/211609reponame:DIGITAL.CSIC.
