Construction | Quality Building Services
Environmentally friendly building solutions It’s good to know that despite New Zealand’s remote location we are still privy to the latest global advancements in technologies, in this case heating and air ventilation systems. Few would be able to match clients and their buildings with better solutions than Quality Building Services (QBS), which is a locally owned and operated company committed to delivering improved heating and ventilation systems to the local community. Director Eddie Garden enjoyed many esteemed roles between entering the industry in 1989 and establishing QBS in 2011. He says people shouldn’t look at air conditioning, heating and ventilation systems as “just another appliance”. Enlisting the help of a professional service provider like QBS makes all the difference when it comes to clients receiving maximum value for investment. This is QBS’ main priority and what led Eddie to establish a company that offers a luxury many large companies can’t – taking the time to not rush through the job list.
Choosing the right system is key Not only is the right solution key to how inviting and comfortable your building is and how expensive it is to run, it is even believed to improve the health of the building’s inhabitants. A common mistake non-professionals make, Eddie says, is not realising that there are different solutions specific to different climatic and functional conditions. The wrong choice can be costly.
About the company Quality Building Services provides commercial and industrial air conditioning and mechanical and ventilation systems, including: • Design and installation • IQP inspections • Preventative and proactive maintenance services • Energy saving assessments and implementations • Project management services • Peer reviews • Fault finding and repairs • Electrical services. Newer buildings and buildings in warmer climates require a lower-watt appliance – but someone inexperienced could unknowingly select a higher-powered option that ends up costing them more than it needs to for the same amount of output. Placement is another key factor when it comes to optimal function. Poor positioning could result in a solution that is ineffective at either
cooling, drying, ventilating or warming the space, yet still costly to run. QBS only uses systems from major brands like Fujitsu, Mitsubishi Electric and Daikin that have decades-long records of success in local settings and climates. The company ensures its staff attend all the latest training and education seminars provided by industry heavyweights and also conducts in-house reviews to monitor the effectiveness of the systems it uses. As proof of its commitment to improving the community’s quality of life, QBS has sponsored the Canterbury Rugby Union with
its systems since 2012 and is one of very few companies who have maintained carbonzero certification since its establishment. From August 2017, QBS will be operating out of a new, larger premises in Wilsons Road, Waltham from where it can increase its workshop capabilities.
