FAQs

How can MODUS help with HVAC problems in my Des Moines home or building?

As consulting engineers, we diagnose the root cause of HVAC issues like improper installation or boiler pressure problems by analyzing your entire system's design. For Des Moines residents, this means we look at how local climate factors and your building's specific construction impact performance. We then provide detailed plans for corrections or upgrades that improve efficiency, comfort, and longevity, ensuring solutions are tailored to your property.

What does your energy analysis service involve for an Iowa project?

Our energy analysis evaluates how your building's mechanical and electrical systems consume energy. We model your facility's performance using local Des Moines weather data and utility rates to identify inefficiencies. The result is a clear report with practical recommendations—such as HVAC adjustments or envelope improvements—that can reduce operating costs and support sustainability goals, which is a core part of our design philosophy.

Why choose a consulting engineering firm over a standard HVAC contractor for a new build?

While contractors install systems, we design them from the ground up to meet your exact needs. For new construction or major renovations, our role is to collaborate with you and your architect from the start. We ensure the HVAC, electrical, and technology systems are integrated, energy-efficient, and aligned with your long-term goals for the facility, providing the technical foundation a contractor will later build upon.
