Healthy Air for a Healthy Workplace

Our mission—healthy air for a healthy life—guides every office project. We design to the latest ventilation standards, apply MERV-13 or higher filtration where appropriate, and offer IAQ enhancements like HEPA room-side solutions, UV-C in coils, and CO2-based demand control to improve air changes while managing energy. We validate with measurements and commissioning so you can show tenants and stakeholders real results.

Energy, Comfort, and Control

From coastal corrosion control to part-load efficiency, we optimize selection and controls for Santa Monica conditions. Expect precise staging, smart ventilation, quiet operation, and tight setpoints. Our team integrates with your BMS or deploys scalable controls that allow trend logging, alarms, and remote support—so issues are prevented or resolved quickly.

AC PRO Sourcing for Reliability

To minimize downtime and keep projects moving, we stock and source professional-grade equipment and supplies from AC PRO/AC Pro. Having local access to parts, filters, controls, and accessories helps us maintain fast turnaround, predictable schedules, and durable outcomes.

Compliance and Documentation

We handle Title 24 energy requirements, permitting support, submittals, and closeout packages. Your deliverables include equipment schedules, sequences of operation, commissioning reports, and maintenance plans—making it easier for property managers and facility teams to operate efficiently.

Our Process

• Assessment: On-site survey, data logging, and review of complaints, hot/cold spots, and utility history.
• Engineering: Load and ventilation calculations, equipment right-sizing, corrosion mitigation, and acoustics planning.
• Proposal: Clear options with energy and comfort impacts, budget, schedule, and ROI comparison.
• Build/Retrofit: Tenant-safe, low-disruption execution with rigorous quality controls and safety practices.
• Commissioning: Functional performance tests, balancing, tuning, and training for your team.
• Care: Ongoing maintenance, remote support, and continuous optimization as building usage evolves.
