Know that balancing HVAC air flow will not only make your home more comfortable throughout, it will also make the system run more efficiently. Efficient operation of the HVAC unit means lower utility bills.
HVAC Air Balancing Services
All HVAC systems must undergo air balancing to ensure proper operation and performance. Even the most efficiently designed and expertly built HVAC system cannot operate at optimal levels without a proper air balance. At PSA, we perform air balancing as part of a Total System Balance (TSB).
Key Benefits of Air Balancing
- Prolong the life of equipment and reduce maintenance costs.
- Create and maintain a comfortable environment. Improve indoor air quality to create a healthier environment.
- Ensure proper air change rates and relative pressures in critical environments.
The Total System Balance (TSB) process begins at plan review and includes creating a specific project agenda, performing site inspections, and completing all required testing included in the project specifications. The pre-planned fieldwork involves testing and balancing the heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, sub-systems, and specialty systems to ensure specified design criteria is attained and optimum final results are achieved within the limits of the installed components. The result is a comprehensive test and balance report reflecting systems that operate at maximum efficiency and performance, which helps to control energy costs and improve comfort levels.

Does your home feel too humid after a summer rainstorm? Here is a simple solution: run your air conditioning system a little longer than normal at a lower temperature than normal. Your air conditioning system is dehumidifying your home, while it is running. The system will draw all of the humidity out of your home and that cool feeling will return!
Zoning makes your home more comfortable and helps you save money on energy. Your home is divided into independent zones, as multiple thermostats are used. The climate is then independently controlled depending on your desired level of comfort in each zone. Most common examples of zoning are: separating the upstairs climate from the downstairs; establishing a special zones for sleeping and living areas.
By zoning, you have more control over different areas of your home, without having to regularly adjust the thermostat in order to reach desired level of comfort. Rooms inside your home, which are traditionally warmer than others, are easily cooled without placing extra strain on your HVAC system.
Regular maintenance is absolutely vital to the performance and lifespan of your heating/cooling system.
Benefits of regular maintenance are:
- System will perform efficiently and you will be able to cut down on high energy costs
- Prolong the life-span of the equipment; avoid unexpected and costly repairs
- Maintain manufacturer’s warranty
- Ensure system is running without risk to your health or/and safety
