Energy Consulting for Builders & Designers
We work alongside builders and designers from the first set of drawings through final testing, providing clear energy modelling, practical design advice and responsive site support. We handle Step Code compliance, F280 calculations, blower-door testing, mechanical coordination and Passive House consulting, helping your projects stay on track, avoid late surprises and perform as intended.
Meet permit and energy requirements
Avoid costly late-stage changes
Improve airtightness and envelope performance
Identify compliance risks early
Right-size mechanical equipment
Keep documentation & testing on schedule
New Construction & Renovation Services
Meet BC Energy Step Code requirements with practical advice, cost-effective options and timely service. From early energy modelling to final blower door testing, we support your project across Vancouver Island and Metro Vancouver.
We support Passive House projects from early feasibility through final certification, including PHPP modelling, thermal-bridge analysis, enclosure optimization, airtightness planning, mechanical coordination and construction-stage reviews, helping teams meet performance targets with practical, cost-conscious solutions.
We provide CSA F280 heat-loss and heat-gain calculations for heat pumps, furnaces, boilers and radiant systems.
We provide mid-construction and final blower-door testing for new homes, renovations, multiplexes, modular buildings and Passive House projects, helping identify leaks while repairs are accessible and verify airtightness for Step Code, EnerGuide or Passive House requirements
Mechanical & HRV Coordination
We coordinate F280 heating and cooling loads, heat-pump sizing, HRV layouts and ventilation requirements with the energy model—helping avoid oversized equipment, reduce design conflicts and provide efficient, comfortable systems that perform as intended.
When to bring us in?
Early Design
Bring us in early to compare performance options and shape an efficient, cost effective design.
Permit
When you need energy modelling, compliance reports, and documentation for submission.
Review key details and test airtightness while improvements are still accessible at mid-construction.
Construction
Completion
Call us for final testing, as built reports, and the documents needed to close out the project.
