Air Balancing and Commissioning (ABC) Services

Technical Safety Services provides air balancing of controlled environments for the improvement of equipment and systems performance, commissioning, mitigating IAQ problems, extending equipment life, and conserving energy without sacrificing occupancy comfort, room cleanliness, or process function. This is especially important in the pharmaceutical and biotech industries where controlled environments such as cleanrooms and laboratories (with chemical fumehoods or biological safety cabinets) have critical air balance specifications.

TSS believes that a total system balance is an imperative component in assuring that the entire environment produces its design result. The proper use of instruments, evaluation of readings, and adjusting systems requires highly trained professionals with years of experience in both air balancing and commissioning and certification. Our technicians are thoroughly trained in accordance with NEBB [National Environmental Balancing Bureau], Procedural Standards for Testing, Adjusting and Balancing of Environmental Systems, and AABC [Associated Air Balancing Council]. Our commitment to customer satisfaction, technical experience, and professionalism enables us to competently and efficiently meet customers' needs while providing a non-biased evaluation of operational performance levels.
