Overview
A jewelry distributor in Ontario faced comfort issues in their warehouse after a recent renovation. To address the unclear causes, they enlisted Melink Corporation for a comprehensive TAB service and ductwork investigation. Melink’s customized approach included standard TAB, a detailed ductwork analysis, and an as-built layout to document post-renovation changes.
Performance
Melink’s technician identified several critical issues in the jewelry distributor’s warehouse, including a non-functional RTU due to a damaged fan motor, disconnected VFDs, and damaged ductwork and OA dampers. The technician worked with the onsite team to repair the motor, recommended replacing pulleys, and provided a comprehensive punch list and recommendations in a detailed report.
While onsite, the technician made key adjustments, such as reconnecting VFDs, performing minor ductwork repairs, and implementing temporary fixes to improve ventilation. A detailed action plan was provided for further improvements, including installing remote sensors and conducting extensive ductwork repairs. Melink’s longstanding relationship with the distributor, previously handling HVAC commissioning and TAB services for their retail stores, ensured a smooth transition to addressing these new challenges in the distribution center.
Conclusion
The case study of the jewelry distributor’s distribution center showcases Melink Corporation’s expertise in addressing large-scale HVAC challenges. Through a comprehensive TAB and ductwork investigation, Melink resolved immediate issues and provided a plan for future improvements. The project, completed on new equipment, underscores that new installations don’t always guarantee proper performance. Melink’s ability to optimize systems, regardless of equipment age, reinforces their reputation as a trusted HVAC solutions provider.
