“Working to create a better Environment”

Making the Difference…Getting the Most out of Environmental Systems!!

Indoor comfort and operating economy increasingly depends on proper analysis and balancing of mechanical air and water systems.  Even the best air conditioning, heating and ventilating equipment can perform inadequately without proper system commissioning.  Our firm solves the problem for building owners, maintenance facilities, engineers and contractors for both:  new, renovated or existing buildings.

Why Testing, Adjusting and Balancing?

ü  Proper ventilation for environmental health and creature comfort.
ü  Identify any design and/or construction deficiencies within Mechanical Systems.
ü  Creates more energy efficient systems and minimizes overall operating costs.
ü  Eliminates troubled areas such as hot or cold spots, drafts, odors, or noisy areas of Buildings.

When is Testing, Adjusting and Balancing needed?

ü  Existing or renovated buildings with ventilation problems
ü  Newly constructed buildings
ü  When “sick building” symptoms arise creating indoor air problem issues
ü  Ventilation distribution problems arise such as hot/cold spots, odors, etc.
ü  Noisy ventilation systems become a problem for building occupants
ü  When required by Contract specifications and drawings
ü  As necessary to comply with current health and requirements outlined by the EPA, OSHA and ASHRAE standards of ventilation

The Value of Testing and Balancing!!

Considering the overall investment in a building and the ventilation systems, cost of professional independent testing and balancing, commissioning and troubleshooting is very inexpensive. To the building owners, the results of testing and balancing are invaluable in finding solutions to complex ventilation systems performance problems prior to final days of your equipment and installation warranties.  Overall, the more efficient the ventilation systems are operating saves on operating and maintenance cost for years to come.
