We have some exciting news to share!

ProTAB is excited to announce our merger with Mechanical Testing, Inc. (MTI)!

MTI is a New York based, Woman Owned Company that began their journey as a Testing and Balancing firm back in 1967. They have since grown to offer additional services such as Building Commissioning, Cleanroom Testing & Certification, ASHRAE 110 Testing, Sound & Vibration Analysis, Blower Door Testing and other niche services. ProTAB will soon be offering these services as well!

For those of you currently working with us here at ProTAB, we aren’t going anywhere! ProTAB will remain in the area as will our team.
We will, however have a larger support network behind us and we will be offering more services moving forward.

Brian Corcoran will still be providing support and would be happy to hear from you should you have any questions.

Tips, Traps and FAQs

If your HVAC BMS controls have a bunch of outdated overrides in them, your burning money! HVAC overrides of heating and cooling valves cost building owners and operators $10,000's of dollars a year if left unchecked. Commissioning your BMS will save you money this year! Make it part of your Preventive Maintenance routine annually

Each year 100's-1000's of man hours are lost to construction companies because of pour or no, virtual drawing coordination. Reality Capture allows for existing buildings to be 3D Scanned and imported directly to AutoDesk so designers can create your new design based off correct and current conditions of the building environment. Saving the project$

Here is short video of MTI Test and Balance Engineer, Brian Venn discussing an Independent approach to TAB and why we are a proud member of AABC!

AABC - Independence Matters

Drones can be used for many different applications. Our inspections offer drone solutions for construction that can significantly reduce costs of many items. Specifically, they can eliminate the need for costly lifts in many circumstances. Drone use is a valuable option for construction companies. MTI offers different services for the construction.

Continued Commissioning is a process that works to improve how equipment in the building and systems function together. There are many variables that come into play, the age of the building or system being one and how the sequence of operation is managing the daily equipment routines.

MTI believes in Full Project Awareness and that is exactly what a 3D Scan provides. MTI has a state of the art Leica RTC360 3D reality capture solution. MTI will capture your environment in 3D. Export it into a manageable Point Cloud that is ready to be converted into a working RVT file.

Building Commissioning is the practice that ensures buildings are delivered according to the Owner's Project Requirements (OPR). Buildings that are properly commissioned typically have fewer change orders, tend to be more energy efficient, and have lower operation and maintenance cost. DO NOT Value Engineer Commissioning out of your next project

Symptoms of a building with an Air Balance issue:
Entry way doors "howl" and are difficult to open or won't remain closed. Odor issues in storage areas, break rooms or worse...bathrooms! Frost forms on window sills in the winter. High and Low Temperature areas in a building. Cooling problems in the summer – no matter how long the AC runs.

Change filters every six to eight months. Did you know that dirty air filters can lead to Dirty Air? Dirty air filled will allergens like pollen and mold can lead to sick time in the work place. Sick time means reduced productivity... do we need to go on? They also put wear and tear on your HVAC system meaning you will have to replace it earlier.
