Building HVAC Dilapidation and Energy Audit
To protect yourself against any claims from adjoining properties regarding their existing building structure or associated assets, we recommend completing a dilapidation reports which are specifically tailored to your project.
A dilapidation report is a report based on the current condition of a property at a given point in time. It records any existing damage, and the state of any particular aspects of the property that are likely to be affected by construction work, excavation or demolition.
Dilapidation reports are usually undertaken on existing buildings on adjoining properties or on buildings on the same property, when protection works are required to be provided to the existing buildings.
A pre-construction report encompasses a documented on-site inspection accompanied by a photographic portfolio and actual performance of the HVAC system that outlines any existing issues. From existing plant including chillers, AHUs, fans & hydronic systems, down to VAVs, air outlets and small fans. This is a key item before a BMCS upgrade or to examine the some times lost HVAC systems over time.
This report verifies pre-construction conditions and provides accurate evidence in case any damage claims should arise during or following construction. Our detailed report is highly valuable in verifying pre-existing conditions should the need arise in the case of any claims.
Having a well documented report ensures there are no arguments about the condition of the systems either during or after the works are completed. Flow Balance dilapidation or energy audit report is an independent survey that is accepted by all authorities.
