HVAC Commissioning services are often thought as being carried out right at the end of a build sequence. In reality, commissioning is an integrated process that links in with the entire build process from offsite design through to post occupancy management and recommissioning.
AirRated® can work on specific commissioning services with you however as Independent Commissioning Agents they can also work end to end to complete the entire process with you.
Reporting to the building owner directly, an Independent Commissioning Agent (ICA) essentially works as a third party project manager. The ICA fills a vital role to the buildings systems performance including pre-construction design guidance and review, monitoring and overseeing the installation of systems by the mechanical contractors during construction and then finally the testing of all mechanical systems and integrations before the building is finally handed over to the client.
Commissioning Management is embedded in the entire process of design to post occupancy management. This allows the best chance of cost savings and for your project to succeed in achieving profitability, optimal building operations and mitigation of risk.
Instead of being singularly focused on one end system test, Commissioning Management encompasses the design management of HVAC systems, review, installations, testing , handover and ongoing maintenance to ensure the highest result for energy efficiency, system performance and comfort for occupants
A technical commissioning management specialist oversees the entire commissioning process from design review, to implementing a site specifics commissioning plan with methodologies and strategies for testing, right through to then completing the physical testing.
Throughout the process the Commissioning Manager works to oversee the technicians completing the work to ensure the end result is to the design specifications.
