What air balancing involves
- Measure supply airflow at each register and total system airflow
- Check static pressure across the blower, coil and filter
- Adjust balancing dampers and blower speed to match design airflows
- Document before-and-after readings in a balance report
When there's a Manual D design, we balance to it. When there isn't, we balance to room loads and report on any rooms that can't reach their target because of duct sizing or restrictions.
Signs your home or building needs balancing
- Upstairs or bonus rooms that are always too hot in summer
- Rooms that never warm up in winter
- Whistling registers or doors that slam when the system starts
- High energy bills from a system that runs constantly
Credentialed balancing
Our team includes an IDABO residential air balancer and an HVAC journeyman, so balance reports are completed by people who understand how the system was meant to work, not just how to read a flow hood.
