Commissioning

For new construction and major renovations of today’s complex buildings it is critical to assure that the owner’s intent is met and that the building systems are operating properly. Existing buildings’ systems operations change from their original intent over years of operation; retro-commissioning retunes these systems towards their originally intended operation and increases system efficiency and reliability.

Our commissioning professionals and energy engineers help you gain control over monthly utility bills and your impact on the environment by understanding the way your building is operating. Commissioning services include: new construction commissioning, LEED building commissioning, retro-commissioning, HVAC system commissioning, electrical system commissioning, and monitoring & verification.
