Commissioning for LEED is meant to optimize the performance and longevity of building systems. Ecohill serves as the certifying agent for LEED projects and brings extensive building technology knowledge to maximize LEED points. LEED Administration assists in smoothing the paperwork necessary for finishing a project on time. We create a detailed analysis of the LEED point status of your building and provide costs and ROIs associated with each element to obtain any rating.

ASHRAE Level 1 & 2 Energy Audits

ASHRAE Standard Energy Audits benchmark the building performance and energy consumption. EcoHill analyze building history and identify no cost and capital improvements which can be implemented. Understanding how energy is consumed allows an owner to focus attention toward reducing energy consumption where inefficiencies exist.

Whole Building Energy Simulations / Energy Modeling

The energy model is a computer software building simulation that uses specified construction materials and building systems of a building and then calculates the energy cost for one year, creating a report of the anticipated energy performance of the building. The report details separate areas and shows how energy efficient the design of building can be, offering the architects and property owners an opportunity to modify sections.
