Test and Balance Services
Martin Air Inc. has been a leader in the air conditioning/Test and Balance industry for 27 years.
We specialize in Healthcare / Industrial applications
- Air Conditioning Testing & Analysis
We provide certified testing of all air and hydronic systems, air handlers ,pumps ,chillers ,cooling towers and control systems. After testing the systems we provide adjustments and or remediation support services. |
- Trouble Shooting & Sick Building Syndrome
After testing deficient systems we provide mechanical services to remediate the problems and supervise the work. |
- Hydronic Ultrasound Testing
We provide state of the art noninvasive ultrasound flow measurement and resultant fluidic adjustment. |
- Control Systems
We calibrate air conditioning control systems, both DDC and Pneumatic. |
- Mechanical Systems
Our services include installation and retrofit of all air conditioning components, chillers , pumps, controls systems, cooling towers, and air handlers. |
- Consulting / Design Build
We provide Design Build, Plan Review and Supervisor Services |
- Thermal Storage
We provide thermal storage ( ice tank flow adjustments)including heat exchangers, glycol chillers etc. Our specialty is calculating and calibrating different flow rates for Ice Make, Ice Burn and Chilled Water modes.
Proper test and balancing of thermal storage systems can provide a higher rate of efficiency and capacity.
The common problem of pre-mature ice build termination may be improved by increasing the Glycol flow rate prior to termination via VFD control. This procedure can extend the chiller run time and enhance the build rations particularly in compromised tanks. As always caution should be taken to not overcharge the tanks resulting in damage.
Another common mistake is to try and perfectly balance each flow rate in each tank. Certainly the tanks need to be within 10% but considering that any additional energy not consumed by a tank that is 100% charged will be conducted to an adjacent tank that is say 95% charged. Overbalancing (tweaking) many times results in excess energy consumption by the pumps.

- Chillers / Cooling Towers
We provide superior flow measurement and have the capabilities to compensate for variations of specific heat ratios of fluid combinations. |
- Hydronic Testing / Heat Exchangers
in combination with our ultrasound instruments, we provide calculations and sequence of operation control points to maximize ice build, ice burn & chilled water modes. |
