1. System Review and Assessment

Conduct a thorough assessment of the chilled water system, including reviewing existing equipment such as pumps, chillers, FAHU’s (Fresh Air Handling Units), AHU’s (Air Handling Units), FCU’s (Fan Coil Units), valves, etc.

Check the capacity, flow rates, and temperature differences at various points of the system to evaluate system performance.

2. Flow Measurement

Measure flow rates at key points in the system, including at the chillers, cooling coils, branches, FAHU’s, and AHU’s.

Utilize flow meters or other precise instruments to ensure accurate flow readings for effective balancing.

3. Balancing the System

Adjust the flow of chilled water to ensure proper distribution across all branches, coils, and units.

Adjust control valves, balancing valves, and other related equipment to achieve the desired flow and temperature distribution.

Fine-tune each section to ensure optimal performance and prevent over- or under-cooling in the system.

4. Temperature Monitoring

Measure and verify the temperature differentials across the system (supply and return temperatures) to ensure the system is running within design specifications.

Ensure that the system maintains the required cooling setpoints and temperature differences for efficiency.

5. Pump and Valve Adjustments

Ensure that pumps are operating within their design parameters (e.g., flow rates, pressures) to maintain system efficiency.

Adjust balancing valves, pressure-reducing valves, and other components to optimize flow rates and pressures, ensuring proper system operation.

6. System Optimization

Monitor the chilled water system’s performance under varying load conditions to assess operational stability.

Adjust system settings for energy efficiency, focusing on part-load operations to minimize energy consumption while maintaining comfort levels.

7. Insulation and Civil Work

Ensure any insulation removed from chilled water pipes during maintenance or adjustments is properly replaced and secured to maintain system efficiency.

Ensure any access points created for system adjustments or inspections are securely fixed and restored to their original condition.

If any civil work is required (such as ceiling openings, repairs, or structural adjustments), ensure it is included in the scope and completed to the necessary standards.

8. Full Building Coverage

Ensure the chilled water balancing process covers the entire building, including common areas, apartments, and shops.

All HVAC systems within the building, whether in residential or commercial spaces, will be included in the balancing and optimization process.

9. Reporting and Documentation

Document all measurements, adjustments, and settings for reference and future troubleshooting.

Provide a comprehensive report outlining any issues identified during the balancing process and include recommendations for system improvements or upgrades.

10. Post-Balancing Review

Conduct a post-balancing review to verify system performance after adjustments, ensuring stable flow rates and temperature control.

Monitor system performance over a specified period to confirm that no further adjustments are necessary.

Building Air Balancing Services

1. Inspection & Assessment

Inspect FCUs (Fan Coil Units), FAHUs (Fresh Air Handling Units), ducts, dampers, and vents for blockages, leaks, or inefficiencies.

Measure air supply, return air flow, and static pressure at critical points in the system to assess airflow performance.

2. Adjustments & Corrections

Regulate damper settings and fan speeds to ensure balanced and consistent airflow across the system.

Seal any air leaks and ensure vents and grilles are operating correctly to avoid energy losses and inefficiencies.

3. Holes and Access Points

Ensure that any holes made in ducts for access during inspection or adjustments are properly sealed to prevent air leakage.

Address any openings or access points created for maintenance and restore them to their original condition.

4. Full Building Coverage

Perform air balancing across the entire building, ensuring proper airflow in all common areas, apartments, and shops.

Ensure all HVAC systems in the building are balanced, including those in residential and commercial spaces.

5. Testing & Verification

Re-measure airflow after all adjustments to confirm the system is properly balanced.

Monitor and record temperature and humidity levels to ensure consistent comfort in all areas.

6. Final Report & Recommendations

Provide a summary of airflow readings before and after the balancing adjustments.

Offer additional recommendations or improvements if needed to further enhance system performance and efficiency.

7. Civil Work and Duct work (if applicable)

Include any civil work required, such as repairing or sealing ductwork, access points, or structural repairs related to air balancing services.
