Energy Audits and Management

In-Depth Mechanical Studies in the Greater Toronto Area

At Bold Engineering, we bring clarity and insight to your building’s performance through our various Mechanical Studies, including energy audit services, feasibility assessments, and heat load calculations. We help owners, developers, and managers across the Greater Toronto Area uncover inefficiencies, evaluate upgrade scenarios, and size systems that match real-world needs. Our goal is to help you make smart decisions grounded in data and engineering expertise.

Energy Audit Services

We begin with a comprehensive energy audit service that measures how your building uses energy today. Our specialists gather utility bills, perform on-site inspections, and monitor systems like HVAC, lighting, and controls. Using data loggers and thermal scans, we quantify where energy escapes or is wasted. Then we deliver a detailed report with actionable recommendations like lighting upgrades, insulation improvements, variable-speed drives, or control optimization.

Across existing buildings and retrofit projects, our energy audit services identify quick wins and longer-term investments that deliver measurable savings and comfort gains.

Feasibility Studies

When you’re considering new equipment, building addition, or major retrofit, a feasibility study clarifies cost, energy impact, and return on investment. We model multiple options like boiler replacement, heat recovery systems, solar integration, or envelope upgrades and estimate energy use, savings, and payback. We compare lifecycle costs and emissions performance so you can choose with confidence.

These studies help boards, owners, and investors understand value, risk, and timeline before committing to capital projects.

Heat Load Calculations

Accurate heat load calculations are critical to selecting proper HVAC equipment. Our team uses tools that account for Toronto’s climate, building orientation, envelope assembly, internal loads, and ventilation. We deliver room-by-room heating and cooling load sheets that guide the sizing of boilers, chillers, fan coils, ductwork, and piping.

Correctly sized systems reduce overshoot, humidity issues, and energy waste, keeping occupants comfortable and maintenance simpler over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are answers to common questions about our mechanical studies. If you don’t see your question below, get in touch and we’ll help you.

What is an energy audit service?2025-09-03T07:04:02+00:00

It’s a structured evaluation of how your building uses energy, including site inspections, data loggers, and recommendations for savings. Audits help uncover hidden inefficiencies in lighting, HVAC, and operations, giving you a clear path to lower energy costs.

How detailed is a feasibility study?2025-07-17T13:13:03+00:00

We compare scenarios with energy modelling, cost estimates, lifecycle analysis, and payback projections to support decision-making. This helps you prioritize upgrades that align with your financial and operational goals.

Why do I need heat load calculations?2025-09-03T07:04:59+00:00

They allow precise sizing of HVAC equipment to match building needs, avoiding oversizing or underperformance. Proper load calculations also support comfort and energy efficiency across seasons.

Can you identify available incentives or rebates?2025-07-17T13:14:13+00:00

Yes, we review relevant utility and government programs and help you claim savings for upgrades. This can significantly reduce upfront costs for energy efficiency projects.

Do energy audits require system shutdowns?2025-07-17T13:14:45+00:00

No, audits are performed during normal operation to capture real energy use and behaviour. We use non-intrusive methods like data logging to assess system performance without disrupting your daily activities.

How long does a full energy audit take?2025-07-17T13:15:21+00:00

Small buildings might need a week of data and review, while larger or complex facilities could take multiple weeks to complete. We provide a timeline up front so you can plan around your operational needs.

Are reports formatted for LEED or BOMA BEST?2025-07-17T13:16:13+00:00

We can compile audit and load calculations in formats compatible with certification requirements. This helps you track sustainability goals while simplifying the submission process.

How accurate are heat load calculations?2025-07-17T13:16:53+00:00

With detailed inputs, we achieve accuracy within 10%, which is enough for reliable equipment selection and performance forecasting. Accurate loads help avoid wasted energy and comfort issues in your building.

Do you help during implementation?2025-07-17T13:17:26+00:00

Yes, we can support procurement, installation review, and performance verification after upgrades. This keeps your project aligned with the audit recommendations for maximum savings and performance.
