One of the best ways to maximize the value of your asset and reduce operating
expenses is to ensure the building systems operate within the intended design
parameters. This can be accomplished by retro-commissioning a building's systems
and assemblies.
Retro-commissioning is a process that seeks to improve how building equipment and systems function together and can often resolve problems that occurred during design or construction, or address problems that have developed throughout the building's life. Retro-commissioning improves a building's operations and maintenance (O&M) procedures to enhance overall building performance.
At Carson Dunlop Weldon and Associates Ltd., (CDW Engineering) Retro-commissioning
will be conducted by a team of Professional Engineers, Certified Energy Managers
and Certified Measurement and Verification Professionals. Our team members
come from design and construction backgrounds with a focus on retrofits and
upgrades
at existing buildings.
Because it saves you operating and maintenance costs! Here are a few more
reasons retro-commisioning make sense:
- Produces a building that meets the unique needs of its owner and occupants
- Operates
as efficiently as possible
- Provides a safe, comfortable work environment
- Operated and maintained
by a well-trained staff or service contractor
For owners, retro-commissioning reduces building operating costs creating
an increase in net operating income. Building managers notice fewer occupant
complaints
and increased ability to manage systems. Building staff receive training and
improved documentation, and building occupants are more comfortable.
