- MEP/FLS Assessments
Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing and Fire Life Safety (MEP/FLS) assessments can be incorporated into standard Property Condition Assessments (PCA) to provide a greater level of detail for buyers regarding the end of useful life of existing equipment and potential large capital expenditures. The MEP/FLS assessment can also be customized to place emphasis on specific systems.
Partner Energy has completed hundreds of (MEP/FLS) system assessments as part of the due diligence process. Our assessment process includes a physical evaluation of each specific system, review of construction documents, and communication with onsite maintenance staff. The MEP/FLS Assessment Report details system conditions, deficiencies, and recommendations for any corrective action of some/all of these building systems:
Mechanical (HVAC)
- Heat generation and cooling equipment
- Custom and unitary systems
- Central plants
- Air distribution and ventilation methods
- Control and building automation systems
Electric
- Electrical panel
- Electrical distribution systems
- Circuit interruption devices
- Wiring types
- Lighting
- Emergency generation equipment
Plumbing
- Piping and connections
- Pool heaters
- Manifolds, pumps, heaters and plumbing fixtures
Fire Life Safety
- Fire pumps and water service
- Sprinkler piping
- Fire life safety equipment
- Fire alarm control panel
- Devices, alarms and accessories
Partner Energy often conducts these additional scopes of work to further compliment the MEP/FLS study:
- An Energy and Water Survey to evaluate the existing energy and water usage at property and opportunities for efficiencies to reduce utility costs;
- A cursory Elevator Study to provide a basic analysis of elevator systems in lieu of more complex study;
- A Refrigeration Study to address the additional mechanical complexity of refrigerated warehouses; and/or,
- An Air Quality Study to evaluate the ventilation and filtration system and identify measures to improve the indoor air quality to minimize COVID-19 exposure.
