Services
HVAC System Audit: We conduct full-system audits of heating, cooling, and ventilation. Our engineers measure temperature differentials, airflow rates, and duct leakage. Using thermal imaging and flow meters, we spot insulation gaps, refrigerant levels, and equipment inefficiencies. The audit results in a comprehensive report showing performance issues and recommended fixes (e.g., sealing ducts or upgrading to a programmable thermostat). This service is ideal for older homes or commercial buildings needing an efficiency overhaul.
Performance Testing: We test equipment such as air handlers, chillers, and thermostats under different conditions. By running performance tests, we can verify that your heating/cooling output matches design specifications. Any deviation indicates needed repairs or recalibrations. For example, a test might reveal a furnace isn’t cycling correctly or an AC is short-cycling due to a clogged filter. We diagnose such faults and suggest corrections, ensuring your system’s actual capacity meets your needs.
Indoor Air Quality Assessment: Beyond temperature, we check air quality factors – humidity, particulate count, and CO₂ levels. If necessary, we recommend upgrades like UV germicidal lights or HEPA filters. For instance, we can test for mold spores or VOCs inside ventilation. Improving air quality often involves repairing or upgrading dampers and ventilators. Our goal is healthy indoor environments, which is particularly important in workplaces or schools.
System Optimization: Using our diagnostics, we tune system controls and schedules. We might program thermostats or automate zone dampers to match occupancy patterns. We also suggest insulation improvements or shade strategies. By optimizing controls (like setting back temperatures at night) and ensuring equipment is correctly sized, clients typically see lower bills. For example, simple thermostat reprogramming can cut heating and cooling costs by up to 20%. Our service ensures these measures are correctly implemented.
Preventive Diagnostics: We offer annual check-ups similar to a vehicle’s inspection. Before high-demand seasons (summer and winter), we test all HVAC components to catch problems early. This includes checking refrigerant charge, cleaning coils, and recalibrating sensors. Early diagnostics prevent breakdowns during heatwaves or cold spells. Customers on our preventive plan receive reminders and priority service, which keeps systems running smoothly when needed most.
Reporting & Compliance: For commercial clients, we provide detailed audit reports and certification. These documents can support energy audit requirements or green building certifications. We quantify efficiency gains (e.g., kilowatt-hours saved) and carbon reductions. This service helps businesses meet regulatory standards and demonstrate their commitment to sustainability.
