What is testing, adjusting and balancing? Testing, adjusting and balancing is the process of evaluating temperature and environmental control systems to ensure they're heating or cooling according to design specifications and at the equipment's best level of efficiency.

Building Management System is used to control and monitor complex HVAC systems as per design intent. It is used to collect data about the performance of the building as well as energy consumption by individual equipment and systems.

Air balancing is a method of testing your heating and cooling system to spot any problems that are causing uneven airflow or negative air pressure. Once identified, these problems can be corrected so every room gets the amount of air it needs.

Testing, Adjusting, and Balancing is a vital step for complex air and hydronic systems within buildings and throughout campuses to ensure HVAC systems are optimized for occupant comfort, energy efficiency, indoor air quality, and manufacturing processes.
