Building Surveys & Energy Audits
Climate Control Systems & Service can help you find energy savings today!
At Climate Control Systems & Service, we provide expert Building Surveys & Energy Audit services in Rapid City to help commercial hvac clients uncover energy-saving opportunities and optimize HVAC and plumbing system performance. Our comprehensive approach starts with detailed building surveys to assess equipment condition, maintenance needs, and operational efficiency, followed by tailored energy audits that range from identifying inefficient systems to advanced energy modeling for precise savings projections. By leveraging building load calculations and simulations, we ensure your facility—whether a school, office, or warehouse—operates at peak efficiency, reducing costs and extending system lifespan while aligning with Rapid City’s unique climate demands.
Energy Audits
Building Audits have different levels of involvement, but all start with a building survey. They also identifying energy saving potentials. A lower level audit would identify inefficient equipment and inefficient operations. A high-level audit would incorporate energy modeling and preliminary equipment selections to identify energy savings.
Building Survey
A building survey is the process of reviewing a building’s HVAC and plumbing systems for condition, required maintenance, remaining service life and potential issues or pitfalls of operation. Climate Control Systems and Service can work closely with a building owner or maintenance team to assess maintenance and replacement priority of an existing building’s HVAC and Plumbing Systems.
Building Load Calculations
Building Load Calculations are the starting point for HVAC design and can be broken into two categories. Design Calculation and Simulation. All buildings undergo a design calculation, in this process the building occupancy, geometry, orientation, location and internal loads are entered into software to determine equipment sizing for coldest winter condition and the hottest summer condition for a specific climate zone.
Depending on the need, a simulation may be required to compare different systems and energy consumption. Simulations add to the complexity of the design calculation by accounting for occupant diversity, equipment control strategies, energy consumption etc. Simulation allows the designer to communicate energy saved and lost between different types of equipment.
