Aero provides consulting and energy services nationwide.  We are in numerous utility rebate programs throughout the country.  And, if we are not in them yet, ask! We can work within virtually any program!

For testing and balancing, we generally stay within Illinois, Indiana, and surrounding states, although we have traveled for special projects!

Have a project? Contact us here!

We almost have too many to list!

For testing and balancing we are certified through TABB and NEBB

For energy and commissioning, our individuals hold numerous certifications.  For example: PE, CEM, BCx, LEED, WELL, and more!

Almost every building is eligible for some type of rebate.  The program level typically depends on the size of your facility and its energy consumption.  

Contact us, and we can help you understand what programs you qualify for!

Aero offers both air and water testing and balancing services. We are TABB and NEBB certified, ensuring that your systems operate as designed.

Our technicians are TABB certified and highly trained.

Aero utilizes advanced equipment that is periodically calibrated by third-party certifiers to ensure precise measurements and adjustments.  

Mechanical systems rarely operate as designed on paper due to variations in climate, pressure, and occupancy, or due to installation deviations. Periodic recalibration of existing building systems is necessary to maintain optimal performance.

Testing and balancing of large/complex systems is highly technical and time-consuming. It requires specialized training and equipment.  In addition, specific building codes and standards require certified technicians.

Commissioning (Cx) is a process that ensures all building systems are designed, installed, and functioning according to the owner's requirements. Aero's team of engineers works closely with clients to maximize building efficiency and energy use.

Retro Commissioning (Retro Cx) is the process of improving the efficiency of existing building systems. Aero's engineers analyze current performance and implement improvements to enhance energy use.  May utilities offer rebate programs to fund retro-commissioning.  

Yes, Aero provides assistance with utility rebate program application and reporting to help clients maximize their savings.

Aero utilizes actual performance data, engineering expertise, and field technician surveys. rather than theoretical information. The use of data analytics enables clients to make informed decisions about capital investments, ensuring the efficient utilization of resources.

Clients should evaluate an energy consulting firm based on industry experience, range of services, certifications, and industry credentials

Aero provides custom compliance programs for healthcare, laboratory, and pharmaceutical spaces.

Regular inspections ensure that fire dampers and fire smoke dampers function properly, preventing the spread of fire and smoke in buildings.  In addition, it is required by the International Fire Code (IFC) and NFPA.

According to the NFPA and IFC, fire and smoke dampers should be tested at installation, one year after acceptance testing, and every 4 to 6 years thereafter, depending on the occupancy type.

Yes, in addition to being certified to test fire and smoke dampers, Aero's technicians are qualified sheet metal workers who can efficiently repair and replace fire dampers to ensure occupant safety.

A fire/smoke damper is a critical safety device installed in a building’s HVAC system to prevent the spread of fire and smoke through ductwork during a fire event.

The NFPA outlines specific guidelines for fire damper maintenance in codes such as NFPA 80 and NFPA 105.

Monitoring-Based Commissioning (MBCx) is a process that combines monitoring, automatic fault detection, and building performance dashboards with retro-commissioning procedures to provide persistent and continuous energy savings.

We will begin in this chapter by dealing with some general quantum mechanical ideas. Some of the statements will be quite precise, others only partially precise. It will be hard to tell you as we go along which is which, but by the time you have finished the rest of the book, you will understand in looking back which parts hold up and which parts were only explained roughly.

MBCx can reduce building energy waste by up to 15%, improve occupant comfort, and extend mechanical equipment life by identifying and implementing low-cost, high ROI operational improvements.

Yes, a comprehensive MBCx system can help clients manage large amounts of data across a single building or a portfolio of buildings, with customizable reports that present data in terms of Key Performance Indicators.  

All systems can be monitored if they have the ability to integrate with other systems via protocols such as Modbus, BACnet, SQL, and others.  Please contact an Aero representative if you have any questions.

We are very confident in our savings! Many of our savings calculations are calculated with real data, both before and after.  In addition, the data and calculations are audited by 3rd party professionals through the utility programs.
