Re-Commissioning
For when:
Re-commissioning is similar to new commissioning; however, this service is performed when your building has been previously commissioned. Industry standards suggest that buildings be re-commissioned every 3-5 years on average to maintain optimal performance of your facility.
Retro-Commissioning
For when:
Retro-commissioning is the service that you want if your building has never been commissioned before. With this service offering, we will perform basic functional testing of your HVAC equipment and provide you with a base-line of how the building is operating. We can also look at your utility usage and assist in possible solutions and options to bring your facility into an efficient operating state. Read more about the benefits of Retro-Cx here.
Monitoring Based Commissioning
For when:
This service can be used as an option if you are pursuing LEED certification and are seeking the enhanced commissioning credit option. This can also be used to monitor the health of your building after it has been commissioned to ensure efficiency doesn't drift due to normal wear and tear on equipment or user over-rides.
Building Envelope Commissioning
What is this?
Building envelope commissioning deals with the envelope of your building, i.e, insulation, air and water barriers, doors, windows, roof, etc.
This is typically utilized when your building is being built and commissioning scope starts during the design phase of your project. We would perform design reviews specifically for the building envelope. Services would then continue on through-out the construction of your building.
