This Service is specifically directed toward Existing Residential HVAC System (s) Engineering and Design.

The Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system plays a vital role in addressing most issues relating to the comfort, health, well being, and satisfaction of a homeowner.  In regard to energy use, energy cost and energy conservation I find from my viewpoint that the general public is unaware of the benefits that a total energy efficient HVAC system brings. Most homeowners that I have come in contact with believe that it is the energy efficient rating (SEER, AFUE) of the HVAC equipment alone that reduces energy use, thereby reduces their energy bill. The SEER rating of the cooling equipment and the AFUE rating of the heating equipment does in fact play a sizeable role in reducing ones energy bill, there is a greater savings available to the homeowner through a "Total Energy Efficient HVAC System Installation". 

A total energy efficient HVAC system encompasses the complete installation:

  • Engineering and design.

  • Energy efficient heating and cooling equipment.

  • Heating and cooling equipment performance to specifications.

  • Measurement and testing total system performance.
