Mechanical, Electrical & Plumbing Design
What is Mechanical, Electrical & Plumbing Design?
Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing design involves planning, organizing, and creating drawings within code limitations for heating, cooling, electrical, and plumbing systems. These systems are the heartbeat of a functioning building, and they take up a lot of space. Their position and layout are an integral part of MEP design that will greatly affect the efficiency, comfort, and safety of your building.
Our MEP designers are committed to professionally handling the intricate parts of your systems’ designs.
Mechanical Design
Mechanical design primarily involves the layout of your heating and cooling systems. Your mechanical design services may include any or all of the following:
- Heating, ventilating, and air conditioning systems
- Exhaust systems
- Direct digital control (DDC) systems
- Heating water systems
electrical Design
Electrical design deals with the location of your electrical lines, outlet positions, lighting, and any other wiring. Your electrical design services may include any or all of the following:
- Comprehensive electrical system design
- On-site power generation requirements and distribution
- Critical power systems
- Integration of IT and AV into overall building design
- Device coordination and arc fault services
- Lightning protection systems
- Fire alarm systems
Plumbing Design
Plumbing design involves the layout of all water systems, including stormwater management. Your plumbing design services may include any or all of the following:
- Domestic cold and hot water systems
- Domestic waste and vent systems
- Fuel gas piping systems
- Storm water systems
- Automatic sprinkler systems
- Water conservation systems
The Building Blocks to your Design:
The First Meeting
You describe; we listen. Together we explore project scope and needs.
Concept & Plans
You review the plans and give the go-ahead when you’re satisfied.
Construction Documents & Permits
You’ve got the paperwork in hand to bring your building to life!
What are the advantages of Earth & Sky’s mechanical, electrical & plumbing design?
Our MEP designers are in-house with the creative and structural building designers.
Our MEP design process can happen in tandem with the structural and creative building design process. If a last-minute change pops up, say in the creative or structural design of the building, we can collaborate on those changes in-house rather than holding up the process while we sort it through with a separate company.
Our MEP design is flexible.
Some of you want to be involved in each decision, from interior lighting fixtures to bathroom layout and hardware. Others of you may prefer the designer to generate the layout and present you with the plans. We’re happy to work with you whether you want the bare minimum or whether you’re looking for features that add to the character of your building.
