What is Energy Code Compliance, and why is it important?
Energy Code Compliance ensures that building designs meet the minimum energy efficiency standards set by local and national regulations. This is crucial for reducing energy consumption, lowering utility costs, and contributing to a more sustainable built environment. Our custom approach allows projects to balance energy efficiency with financial and operational costs.
How can HVAC Size Reduction benefit my project?
By accurately analyzing the building’s heating and cooling loads, Griffin EnerG Consulting can often recommend smaller HVAC systems. This can lead to lower upfront equipment costs, reduced energy consumption, and improved system performance.
What is Life Cycle Cost Analysis? How can it help me make informed decisions?
Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) evaluates the total cost of a building or system over its entire lifespan, including initial investment, energy consumption, maintenance, and replacement. This analysis helps clients make informed decisions that optimize long-term value and minimize overall expenses.
