LEED Construction and Renovation

Our most cherished principle in construction is the implementation of environmentally friendly building processes. From our building designs, to our use of recycled materials, to our use of eco-friendly cleaning materials, TK Services strives to implement practical, sustainable construction methods in every project.

But why Green? Green building practices have a multitude of benefits associated with them. Increased energy efficiency in buildings translates to reduced energy costs. Well-constructed, ‘people-friendly’ workplaces mean increased worker productivity. Air filters, HEPA vacuums and low-particulate cleaning agents result in healthier employees and fewer sick days. All these and other, built-in money saving features enhance the future marketability of the property. TK Services will work closely with your company to design a building eligible for LEED Certification, as well as help construct your project.

TKS can work with your company to help resolve the easily-overlooked aspects of energy management such as:

• Curtailing loads during peak operation hours where system demand is high
• Posting energy posters and displaying signage concerning energy practices
• Practicing good housekeeping, such as turning off unnecessary lights and powering down equipment when
  not needed
• Installing systems to reclaim or reuse cooling towers’ bleed-off water
• Capturing condensation off chill water coils
• Installing economizing systems on boilers to pre-heat combustion air
• Equipping variable frequency drives for cooling tower fans
