Objective Design & Review

A common practice today is for customers to take advantage of the “free” design services that are offered by their primary equipment vendor. You have heard the adage, “You get what you pay for.” Based on our review of hundreds of refrigeration/HVAC system designs, we believe this is true.

An equipment vendor’s first job is to maximize the placement of their technology. Who ensures that your entire system is optimized? Who addresses the system integration requirements for optimized and efficient refrigeration and HVAC?

We know from experience that if your system isn’t designed correctly from the beginning, it will not perform to your expectations. Identifying problems in the Design Phase is much less expensive than re-working the problem after the store is operational.The value of a solid and sustainable design far outweighs the initial cost.

At Source, we are technology neutral. We have experience installing and servicing virtually all manufacturers’ products. This experience has taught us what works and what doesn’t.

Our goal is to optimize and sustain refrigeration systems, so we focus our designs to deliver these results. We take a “systems” view and focus on optimizing all of the components of your refrigeration and HVAC systems. We don’t simply copy and paste your prototype design; we evaluate each project individually and provide complete coordination through the project to insure that your best interests are carried through.
