We Serve Owners, Designers, and Contractors
Services tailored to meet the code and specification requirements unique to every project
LEED Certification
LEED PROJECT COORDINATION
During design or construction, we complete the administrative process including all exhibits, calculations, and documentation required to meet LEED Certification (and other Third Party Certification) requirements. We work in support of both Architects (as LEED Project Administrator) and General Contractors (as LEED Coordinator), with services tailored to each.
WHOLE BUILDING ENERGY SIMULATIONS
For design-build and early design projects, our team uses eQuest to simulate, and recommend low/no-cost ways to improve whole building performance.
WHOLE BUILDING LIFE CYCLE ANALYSES
This is a powerful tool for evaluating the total environmental impact of material selection, manufacturing, construction, and operational considerations.
Building Commissioning
WHOLE BUILDING COMMISSIONING (CxA)
We serve on behalf of Owners or Contractors as an independent third party to witness and verify that the energy systems in the building have been properly installed, operate correctly, and meet the design requirements. Our Commissioning Agents are professional engineers Certified through the Association for Energy Engineers.
BUILDING ENCLOSURE COMMISSIONING (BCxA)
We witness and verify the performance all materials, components, systems, and assemblies that provide separation between the interior and exterior of the building.
RETRO COMMISSIONING (RCxA)
This is a best management practice used to ensure that the building’s HVAC continues to operate the best it can: typically completed every 8 months after occupancy.
Independent Testing
AIR BARRIER TESTING/THERMOGRAPHY
Also referred to as air tightness testing and infrared inspection: testing that measures air leakage rates, moisture, and energy loss through a building envelope under controlled testing and infrared inspections, respectively.
INDOOR AIR QUALITY TESTING
Post-construction, pre-occupancy test for common contaminants in the air. Testing completed by independent trained indoor air quality professional. Results consistent with requirements for LEED Indoor Air Quality credit.
TESTING, ADJUSTING, AND BALANCING
We ensure the proper operation of HVAC systems by testing air and hydronic systems and adjusting the flows as required to achieve optimum performance for the equipment.
From DC to LA and NYC to Hawaii
We work hard to deliver sustainable buildings that are making a difference to their communities
