Commercial HVAC & Low-Carbon Plant Design

We specialize in modernizing aging mechanical infrastructure and designing high-performance new systems. As part of our building mechanical engineering in BC, our approach prioritizes equipment that is straightforward to monitor, inherently energy-efficient under real climate loads, and easily maintained by your facility staff without proprietary restrictions.

Technical Scope:
  • Air-source and ground-source heating and cooling systems
  • Hydronic distribution, high-efficiency boiler plants, and central plant design
  • Heat recovery ventilation and energy recovery systems
  • Laboratory, industrial shop, and other specialty exhaust and extraction systems
  • Rooftop and packaged air handling units
  • Ductwork design and airflow balancing
  • Radon mitigation

Plumbing & Hydronic Infrastructure Design

Reliable fluid dynamics are the backbone of long-term building health. Integrated into our broader mechanical engineering services on Vancouver Island and across BC, our plumbing design process emphasizes proactive cross-discipline coordination to resolve spatial conflicts early in design, preventing costly site modifications.

Technical Scope:
  • Domestic hot and cold water distribution
  • Sanitary and storm drainage systems
  • Natural gas distribution piping
  • Compressed air and other specialty gas systems
  • Backflow prevention and cross-connection control

Integrated Fire Protection & Life Safety

We integrate fire suppression systems seamlessly into your architectural layout, ensuring complete safety code compliance without sacrificing usable spatial footprint.

Technical Scope:
  • Wet and dry sprinkler system design
  • Standpipe and fire pump systems
  • Fire and smoke damper coordination
  • Life-safety system integration with mechanical infrastructure

Energy Modelling & Sustainability Consulting

As a member of the BC Hydro Alliance of Energy Professionals, our mechanical engineering services translate complex carbon-reduction mandates and BC Energy Step Code targets into pragmatic, cost-effective design choices. We utilize simulation data to right-size mechanical equipment—preventing over-sizing expenses while helping clients unlock utility rebates to maximize project value.

Technical Scope:
  • Life cycle cost analysis
  • Building energy modelling
  • BC Energy Step Code compliance reporting
  • Utility incentive and rebate application support
  • Decarbonization and electrification strategy

Controls & Building Automation

We design modern direct digital control (DDC) and building automation systems that give facility operators simple, intuitive control over performance. Our hands-on involvement through commissioning ensures your controls deliver real-world energy savings.

Technical Scope:
  • DDC control system design
  • Building automation system integration
  • Sequence of operations development
  • Points list and network architecture design
