Independent Commissioning Verification
Environmental Systems offer an alternative to full commissioning management with the option of independent verification of on-site and off-site equipment and system tests, ensuring the owners assets are commissioned by the various contractors to their design intent.
Existing Building
Retro-Commissioning
The commissioning process for existing building, commonly referred to as Retro-Commissioning, is a systematic process for improving an existing buildings performance by identifying and implementing relatively low cost changes to systems, which in-turn will help improve the buildings overall performance.
Environmental Systems can carry out the Retro-Commissioning process, which would involve the investigation of the building systems & equipment to help understand and improve their operation, we have found in a number of cases, that some buildings systems were never commissioning to their original design intent, causing operational, safety and climatic issues.
LEED - Fundamental Commissioning, Documentation & Verification
Acting as the clients Commissioning Authority (CxA), Environmental Systems role is to act as the Independent LEED Commissioning Engineer for all requirements of USGBC - LEED v4.0 & v4.1.
Due Diligence Surveys
Environmental Systems can carry out due diligence Surveys to provide a detailed analysis of a property’s overall condition. It is carried out for a building owner or potential buyer to highlight any possible defects, maintenance or statutory compliance issues which need to be resolved to ensure a building is brought to a good and compliant standard before sale/purchase, or upgrade. It also provides an understanding whether a building would be suitable for a particular type of use.
