Performance testing services
Our Plano HVACR laboratory offers comprehensive performance testing for a wide range of systems, including heat pumps, chillers, information technology (IT) cooling units, walk-in cooler freezers, dehumidifiers and air conditioners up to 30 tons. We test water-source heat pumps — including water-to-air (W2A), water-to-water (W2W) and air-to-water (A2W) configurations — using advanced psychrometric chambers that simulate real-world conditions.
Our chambers support indoor room temperatures from 40 F to 130 F and outdoor temperatures from minus 20 F to 130 F, with humidity control ranging from 20% to 90% relative humidity, enabling precise and repeatable testing across diverse climate scenarios.
Connect with us to learn more about specialized performance testing capabilities, including:
- Integrated Ventilation, Economizer, and Cooling (IVEC)
- Integrated Ventilation and Heating Efficiency (IVHE)
- Control verification procedure (CVP)
- Load-based testing (LBT)
- Energy efficiency testing according to applicable standards*
