Commissioning Existing Buildings
Over time your building may undergo changes, whether from tenant improvements or mechanical upgrades. By improving and sustaining your building's systems, you can expect energy savings of 10 to 30% while improving building performance.
Training on Video
The training of your initial building operator is videotaped for future team members.
All Systems Go
The commissioning of your new building starts in the conceptual phase and continues through occupancy to one year post construction. It is a collaborative effort involving the owner, engineer, contractors and commissioning agent (CA). The process dynamically brings your static building to life - fully meeting your specified requirements and functional/operational needs. Download PDF
Achieving, Verifying, Documenting
MacDonald-Miller, with extensive knowledge of environmental systems, is qualified to commission highly sophisticated buildings. A CA from our Building Commissioning Department follows the progression of your project - with a comprehensive checkout of the mechanical system from concept to occupancy, a review of conceptual and actual designs, verification of proper installation, and functional testing of the complete system.
Comprehensive Commissioning
The commissioning process encompasses and coordinates the traditionally separate functions of system documentation, equipment start-up, control system verification, calibration testing and balancing, performance testing, and training. Weekly commissioning coordination meetings, led by your MacMiller CA, ensure that the owner 's representative, GC and all trade subcontractors are working together to deliver a building that performs optimally.
Staying On Target
Our certified Test and Balance (TAB) services inspect and adjust your HVAC environmental system to ensure it performs according to design - whether your building is a high-tech lab or warehouse. Starting with measurements from strictly calibrated instruments, your TAB engineer calculates and makes precise adjustments to bring your entire system into balance.
