Although commissioning is best started during planning or design, it adds value at any point in the design/construction process. Modern HVAC and lighting equipment must be started up according to the manufacturer's instructions and the engineer's design for the owner to enjoy the extended, reliable and low-maintenance operation they paid for. Boilers, chillers, variable frequency drives and their associated controllers have a host of parameters that must be understood, adjusted and documented at start-up.

At one time, traditional Test, Adjust and Balance (TAB) procedures were sufficient to ensure correct building operation. Modern building HVAC and lighting systems use microprocessors, digital communications equipment, automatic actuators, sensors and programming that require skills far beyond TAB capabilities. The Dome-Tech Commissioning engineers and technicians are adept at interpreting the most complex systems for quick turnaround in critical construction environments. Our staff skills cut across traditional contractor/engineer lines to combine systems logic with hands-on testing in the "as-installed" condition.
