ACH50
Air Changes per Hour at 50 Pascals — the standard measurement from a blower door test, expressing how many times the entire volume of air in a home is replaced per hour when the house is pressurized to 50 Pascals. Lower is tighter: homes built after 2015 often measure around 3-7 ACH50, while an untouched older home can measure 12-20 or higher.
