Our Goal is to assist the customer to reduce their energy consumption while maintaining or improving the performance of the plant support systems.

The typical manufacturing facility with cleanrooms and manufacturing equipment has numerous support systems such as HVAC, Clean Dry Air, Process Cooling Water and Process Vacuum. These systems consume a large portion of the total plant electrical demand. On average they use 50%-75% of the total building load

Most modern Facilities have Building Automation Control systems (Johnson Metasys, Trane Tracer, ALC, etc.). These tools help tremendously to control the systems but depending on how they were setup, may not be performing any energy saving functions. Lighting control schemes get a high level of attention, but lighting loads are typically less than 2% of the building total electrical usage.

The characteristics of these support systems require them to operate at a high level of integrity and reliability. Many times these systems are evolved over several generations of change, or as often the case, are setup once at start-up and not closely monitored for efficiency thereafter.

Fulcrum Mechanical Inc. offers to study the operations of your facility and identify areas of savings. Numerous areas of savings require little or no additional cost to implement. Work with your staff to understand the required operating conditions of each system. We observe and monitor the systems to identify any excessive or wasteful conditions. We then work with your staff to implement the changes and monitor their performance.Success Stories
We have assisted in reducing the operating cost of many systems at local customers for example:

-A humidity control scheme on clean-room makeup air handlers was modified to save over per year in energy costs.
-Reduced DI Water System energy usage on a 200-GPM RO by per year.
-Optimized cleanroom recirculation airflow saving over per year.
-Modify Cooling Towers to improve chiller performance and eliminate purchase of additional equipment saving over per year.

PROJECT MANAGMENT/GENERAL CONSTRUCTION Maintaining customer service, and controlling overhead costs, has always been an important key in providing competitive pricing. Fulcrum Mechanical, Inc. is a Licensed Prime/General Contractor, (B-License), in addition to holding a Mechanical, C-20 and Plumbing , C-36 license. In providing "in house piping", "mechanical, and electrical labor", we have been able to avoid the “double mark-up" realized when using typical General Construction Management. The key to repetitive business is "service", taking the project from inception to final completion for use by the end user. Service is an understanding of site policies, protocols, and standards; maintaining personal working relationships with Engineers, Project Managers, Management and End Users. Value added Engineering is provided when projects have specific budgets to maintain. The staff at Fulcrum understands, and is sensitive to the costs of the customer investments for each of the projects and has the experience to maintain competitive costs as well as schedule.
