Building Automation Engineering in San Luis Obispo, CA

The Central Coast's university and wine hub, San Luis Obispo is anchored by Cal Poly and surrounded by Edna Valley vineyards, with Diablo Canyon's seismic setting looming over regional design standards. A historic downtown, growing tech presence, and Mediterranean climate drive demand for campus, hospitality, winery, and infill development.

What we engineer

Building automation and controls design: BACnet/IP and MS/TP network architecture per ASHRAE Standard 135, DDC controller layouts, sequences of operation written to ASHRAE Guideline 36, HVAC integration (chillers, boilers, VAV, VRF), lighting/HVAC integration, and energy metering per ASHRAE 90.1 Section 8.4. Fault detection and diagnostics (FDD) for air handlers and plants, plus demand-response-ready sequences per OpenADR.

Code compliance that passes

ASHRAE 90.1 and IECC C403/C404/C405 control mandates — automatic shutoff, occupancy and daylighting sensing, demand-controlled ventilation — plus IECC C408 commissioning documentation and Title 24 acceptance testing where required. BACnet Secure Connect (BACnet/SC) with TLS encryption for cybersecurity on every network we design.

Backed by licensed PEs
