MORE ABOUT OUR PHILOSOPHY
...
Appropriate design, correctly implemented, will result in optimally functioning systems appropriate for the project. User comfort is the final goal for any environmental control system. System function is the final goal in any process control system.
Good design should begin with an integration into the whole. In an ideal new construction project, the utilities and utility performance, particularly with respect to environmental control systems, should be considered as part of the early programming and schematic design phases. Even in the case of simple equipment replacement or system upgrades, affects from and effects to the entire building or campus system should be taken into consideration in early design.
Life cycle costs, not first costs, should generally be the determining factor in optimum system design. Life cycle costs include first costs, energy costs, maintenance costs, reliability, and anticipated equipment life.
In determining appropriate system design, consideration should be given to the skill of the service staff. The KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid) principle should always be applied. Complicated controls and energy saving measures will quickly be reduced to their simplest operations by poorly trained staff or service technicians, to no ones benefit.
