Value Delivered
We applied our extensive healthcare expertise to provide innovative and comprehensive HVAC and plumbing solutions for a new medical office building.
Our use of cross-linked polyethylene piping material for domestic hot and cold water supply systems helped to drastically minimize total hot work required, and expedite installation on an aggressive schedule.
As part of this project, we assisted with developing and installing one of the first Long Beach city-permitted methane gas monitoring systems—which is now used as a city standard for larger projects built over contaminated soils.
