Total System Balance

Total System Balance is a comprehensive Test and Balance service for HVAC systems, smoke control, and domestic hot water systems—performed through design, construction, acceptance, and post-acceptance phases. We ensure final reports meet defined tolerances and include a clear verification process for end results.

Geothermal Well Field Testing

We provide third-party witnessing and documentation of geothermal well field flushing and purging to verify air and debris removal. Proper verification ensures systems operate at correct differential temperatures and peak efficiency.

Ultrasonic Water Testing

We use non-invasive ultrasonic flow meters to measure flow in domestic and hydronic systems without built-in metering devices. Ideal for pre-testing and troubleshooting, this service helps verify flow rates where conventional methods fall short.

Control Systems Verification

We offer enhanced control system testing as part of Total System Balance. Our team develops verification and documentation plans to confirm proper sequencing, damper function, and alarm operation—improving system efficiency and occupant comfort.

HVAC and Vibration Testing

Even after balancing, HVAC systems may generate unwanted noise or vibration. We offer sound and vibration testing as part of the initial scope or post-balance, helping identify and resolve issues that impact occupant comfort and productivity.

Design Reviews Preconstruction

Early involvement allows us to review plans and specs before bidding, helping identify potential balance-related issues. Our expertise reduces change orders and post-bid deficiencies by offering solutions during the design phase.

Indoor Air Quality Testing

We offer IAQ assessments post-TAB to evaluate fresh air and exhaust air settings for a healthier indoor environment. For advanced testing, we can connect clients with trusted IAQ specialists.

HVAC System Preconstruction Surveys

When expanding or upgrading existing systems, we conduct pre-test surveys to establish baseline performance data. This helps expose hidden issues, inform design decisions, and ensure smoother, more efficient balancing during renovations.

Duct Leakage Pressure Testing

We test duct integrity by applying positive or negative pressure to identify excessive leakage, which can lead to higher energy use, noise, and reduced efficiency. Our testing helps ensure optimal system performance.

Fume Hood Testing

We provide certified testing and annual re-certifications for lab, bio-safety, and kitchen hoods. Our testing ensures accurate capture performance and compliance with facility regulations, accounting for room conditions and airflow variables.

Healthcare Air Exchange Rate and Pressure Testing

We verify air exchange rates and pressure relationships in hospitals, labs, and other healthcare facilities. Beyond reporting, we help diagnose and resolve issues when design standards aren't met, and offer annual compliance check-ups.

Life System Safety Testing

We perform critical testing on life safety systems, including stairwell pressurization, fire/smoke damper function, and multi-zone smoke control. Our verification includes proper sequencing, airflow direction, and volume to ensure full compliance and performance.
