Forget brand names and sales pitches—what really matters is proper assembly and verification of your HVAC system. Commissioning expert Cody Brasseal explains that even a brand-new system may never deliver the comfort, efficiency, or value you paid for if it is not commissioned. You’ll learn how the ACCA 310 Standard provides a clear path for verification and what questions to ask your contractor to ensure you are getting real performance instead of empty promises. Cody dispels common myths and highlights the importance of airflow, testing tools, and verification protocols. You will also learn how to recognize red flags, hold contractors accountable, and ensure your HVAC system works the way it should. So instead of settling for vague assurances, make commissioning the standard that protects your home and your investment.
