As a building owner, it is your top priority to protect the considerable investment you have made in your building. At Graco Mechanical, we pride ourselves in high quality work and products. However, to receive the full overall life expectancy, efficiency, and operating cost reduction, proper maintenance of the mechanical systems is required. In order to provide you with the best service, we have several maintenance options which can be tailored to fit your building and your budget. These options provide for enhanced maintenance tasks. A few of which are the cleaning of coil surfaces, lubrication of motors, filter changes, and calibrating operating and saftey controls.

Our regular maintenance is a fixed annual cost that includes the repair and replacement labor and parts. This program includes all components and parts of HVAC equipment.

Graco Mechanical has your company covered with a taskforce of 24 hour on-call technicians that can respond quickly when emergencies arise. Whether it is a minor repair, or a more difficult problem, the Graco team is equipped to handle your needs.

Our professional engineers can provide your company with customized design solutions for your facility. We have extensive experience in many types of facilities including data centers, hospitals, office buildings, churches, schools, and more. In-house design/build capability assures you of single-source responsibility and accountability. The time and cost savings for a design/project can truly be significant. The Design Build Institute of American notes the following advantages for companies using the design-build method:

• Faster Delivery– collaborative project management means work is completed faster with fewer problems.
• Cost Savings– an integrated team is geared toward efficiency and innovation.
• Better Quality– design-builders meet performance needs, not minimum design requirements, often developing innovations to deliver a better project than initially imagined.
• Singular Responsibility– one entity is held accountable for cost, schedule and performance.
• Decreased Administrative Burden– owners can focus on the project rather than managing disparate contacts.
• Reduced Risk– the design-build team assumes additional risk.
• Reduced Litigation Claims– by closing warranty gaps owners virtually eliminate litigation claims.

Integrated building design can improve energy performance and help you reduce the total ownership cost of a facility over the short and long term. Operating and maintaining your building over the long term is another way Graco Mechanical can benefit you. We excel in every aspect of our integrated delivery and always strive for building excellence for you and your facility.

At Graco Mechanical, our professional crews are fast and efficient when it comes to installing all of your mechanical and control system needs. Each member of our team has extensive ongoing training with our latest technologies, as well as many years of experience. We want you to able to focus on your core business without any worries when it comes to our equipment. So we maintain and support all of the equipment we install through several long-term maintenance programs.

Retro-commissioning is typically initiated in response to operational problems in a facility. A manager should consider these questions about his/her facility…

• System performance: Is the system performing as expected? Has there been an unexplained increase in building energy use in the recent past?
• Occupant comfort: Have building occupant complaints risen lately? What is the nature of these complaints?
• Changes to the facility: Have changes been made to the building systems that have not been verified or documented? Have the changes been beneficial?
• How critical is the performance of the building systems to the particular facility or area? How often must it be verified?

The EPA states that, “Researchers at three of the foremost building-commissioning think tanks in the U.S. concluded that retro-commissioning is one of the most cost-effective means of improving energy efficiency in commercial buildings. Analysis of commissioning projects for existing buildings showed a median energy savings of 15 percent and a simple payback period of 0.7 years.”

Performance Contracting enables aging facilities to upgrade their equipment with no upfront costs, using the generated savings to pay for the project. Additionally, this program increases cash flow, reduces deferred maintenance and decreases exposure to ambiguous utility charges. This approach essentially eliminates any performance risk to the owner, serving as an off-balance sheet solution and providing guaranteed operational and energy savings.

Whether it is a backflow preventer, installation, repair, inspection or water conservation project, Graco Mechanical can assist you with all of your plumbing needs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Unique service agreements are also available whereby our journeymen plumbers inspect your facility on a predetermined frequency and prepare an analysis of the condition of your plumbing fixtures. If needed, you can then evaluate which repairs you would like to make based on the analysis given.

Other services we can provide include:

• Leak detection
• Sewer gas detection
• Facility Remodeling
• Annual gas tests
• Stoppages

Many comfort and energy problems in a commercial building can be traced back to issues with the building’s control system. Regardless of the complexity of the system, the intent is to deliver the right temperature and humidity to the right location, at the right time, and with the minimum cost possible.
