As a licensed Professional Engineer, I am committed to upholding a rigorous “Code of Conduct” that protects the safety, health, and well-being of the public.

I have no competing financial interest in the designs I produce. I do not sell or install anything I design. I am not affiliated with any manufacturer.

Modern building mechanical systems are complicated. I reduce the risk of costly mistakes and unmet expectations.

I do not unnecessarily oversize mechanical systems; I trust my sizing calculations.

I keep up with the latest high-performance building best practices and do not require coaching to do so. I am not afraid to think for myself and try new things.

I protect projects from gimmicks, bad advice, outdated thinking, and grossly oversized or completely unnecessary systems altogether.

Full mechanical system designs provide many project benefits:

- Obtain realistic mechanical systems pricing early in the design process.

- Level the playing field between multiple mechanical contractors for apples-to-apples pricing.

- Elevate the capabilities of less experienced mechanical contractors (who might be all that is available).

- Reduce change orders and surprises during construction.

- Produce a much neater and higher quality finished product.

- Proactively establish and refine client expectations.

- Free up project resources to focus on other critical tasks.
