INNOVATIVE BUILDING ENVELOPE SOLUTIONS

Drafty buildings, inefficient ventilation systems, and other “sick” and energy-inefficient facilities and structures pose big challenges. These problems aren’t new, but the solutions can and should be.

Envocore’s experts complete thorough, professional building envelope surveys that provide high-value, ROI-driven information about the protective shell around your building. Any opportunity to make improvements within the building envelope can substantially improve energy efficiencies over time.

Building Envelope Audit, Surveying, Testing, and Design

We design, inspect, and test all elements of the building envelope, which includes roofs, walls, foundations, and all component parts. We look for leaks, holes, and issues with air entering or escaping the building.

Our expert audit and design team has extensive experience in identifying and meeting the needs of all types of facilities. Our comprehensive audit and design services are based on field-proven, proprietary audit systems utilizing specialized tools, such as thermal imaging, to identify building envelope issues and infrastructure improvements that might otherwise be overlooked, all with the goal to minimize energy use without impacting the mission of the facility or the occupants.

 

Building Envelope System Analysis

We provide a custom, comprehensive building envelope savings analysis to meet the needs of each facility. Drawing upon operational hours, census information, field observations and analysis, and various other data, we calculate costs and savings on a solution-by-solution basis.

 

Energy and Financial Savings Calculations

We establish the ROI by comparing the total project cost (design, labor, material, and waste removal) with projected annual savings. After this initial analysis, we use alternative value engineering techniques to determine if we can achieve additional savings while maintaining the design intent.

Utility Incentives

Proposals include estimated incentives from utilities that may help offset the cost of the project.

 

 

Professional Installation and Management

We select the members of our project delivery team based on their expertise in the specific construction measures to be implemented. Comprehensive project management planning involves scheduling, auditing, job site management, metrics developing analysis, and detailed close-out documentation. Our engineers and designers understand the big picture and leave no stone unturned.

72% of commercial buildings weren’t built with energy savings in mind

Buildings consume 40% of all U.S. energy & 75% of all electricity use

That adds up to an annual cost of nearly $400 billion annually

53% of existing buildings only have single-pane glass

The building envelope is responsible for about 25% of all building energy use

Up to 57% of all commercial energy use is impacted by the building envelope.
