The Life of a Building

Testing, Adjusting and Balancing is an essential service in establishing and maintaining the comfort and efficiency before and after a building is constructed. When Palmetto Air and Water Balance provides services during the preconstruction planning and final construction phases, the owner is assured that HVAC systems in the building will operate at the most efficient level. As tenants move into the building they will experience optimal environment conditions. Continued maintenance on a five-year plan will help maintain a quality environment and provide energy cost savings to the owner.

Building owners and managers know that "It's too cold" ranks first among tenant and occupant complaints. When a building is not properly tested, tenants experience the seasons of the year and the seasons of the office space. Temperature is either too hot or too cold and is usually very uneven across the space. This leads to sudden thermostat adjustments within an office space. In an unbalanced space, this may correct the temperature in one section of the office space; however, it may also create a negative change (too hot or too cold) in another part of the same office. This type of environment promotes the use of space heaters and other devices that increase energy cost for the owner and creates dissatisfied tenants.

Palmetto Air & Water Balance can develop a maintenance plan for your building that can eliminate the hot/cold scenario. With proper Testing, Adjusting and Balancing, problems in the heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems are diagnosed and solutions are implemented.
