Mechanical Engineering Services
Inclination Engineering provides mechanical engineering design services to building owners and design firms in Southeast Michigan. Our mission is to transform sustainability goals into plans. Make a plan to replace HVAC equipment before it breaks, to increase building energy efficiency, and to electrify your building.
Organizations make commitments to reduce their carbon emissions. While the process seems simple, getting it done within a limited budget is challenging. A decarbonization plan can address these challenges by improving building energy efficiency, rightsizing the heating equipment, and phasing the equipment electrification over time. The plan serves as a roadmap for future building upgrades.
HVAC Equipment Replacement Planning
We inspect your building and listen to your performance and sustainability goals to determine what type of mechanical system would work best. Then we make a phased replacement plan for how transition the existing mechanical equipment to that new system. We provide financial analysis of equipment replacement cost, utility costs, and sustainability financing options.
Retrocommissioning
Retrocommissioning is a process to inspect and tune up a building’s systems. Commissioning agents uncover issues the building owner had not noticed and resolve them before they lead to equipment failure. These services improve energy efficiency, increase occupant comfort, provide control over the mechanical systems, and improve maintenance practices.
​
Health and safety issues relating to domestic water, ventilation, and fire safety are often uncovered during the retrocommissioning process. Often, our recommended solutions are simple fixes that improve occupant health and reduce the risk of serious injury.
