SUMMARY
Specialty testing includes a range of focused field tests designed to measure specific aspects of building performance. These evaluations help project teams verify compliance, identify deficiencies, and verify conditions for accurate documentation and turnover.
Specialty tests are often performed in conjunction to provide a complete assessment of building systems, especially when needed for energy code compliance, program verification, or jurisdictional review.
Specialty testing is a collection of stand-alone, performance-based tests designed to verify how a building system, component, or space performs under real operating conditions.
Each test has a specific purpose and produces objective, repeatable results.
These services are commonly used for:
01. Energy code compliance verification
02. Inspection and turnover preparation
03. Diagnosing comfort, airflow, or ventilation issues
04. Documenting conditions for architects, engineers, and owners
05. Supporting corrective actions or warranty evaluations

Every building can benefit from commissioning, but the scope of work depends on the project type and performance goals.
We offer a range of specialty testing services throughout Texas.
Measures air leakage at the building, unit, or structure level to confirm code compliance or diagnose envelope issues.

Evaluates duct tightness to support energy code requirements and overall system efficiency.
Measures airflow resistance and equipment performance to identify comfort, airflow, and ventilation issues.
Uses infrared imaging to identify insulation gaps, air leakage paths, and potential moisture-related concerns.
Confirms proper operation of occupancy sensors, daylight controls, time clocks, and automatic shut-off systems required by IECC.
Verifies thermostat operation, ventilation settings, schedules, and basic HVAC control functionality.
Assesses ventilation rates and basic air quality indicators to support health and comfort objectives.
Measures light levels to confirm design intent, safety requirements, and energy code compliance.
For project-specific performance questions that fall outside standard testing protocols. If a condition is unusual, we can design a structured, repeatable third-party test to address it.
WHEN TO USE SPECIALTY TESTING
These energy inspection services can be performed as stand-alone evaluations or as part of a broader quality assurance, investigative, or compliance effort.
Specialty testing is useful when:
A specific IECC requirement must be verified
A system is not performing as expected
Comfort, airflow, or ventilation issues need diagnosis
An inspector or jurisdiction requires documented proof
Objective data is needed without a full commissioning scope
Confirmation is required prior to turnover
Multiple tests are needed to satisfy program or code requirements
