Quality & Safety
Quality assurance reviews are scheduled throughout the project with team leaders and installers. Written scope reports are augmented with regular meetings and supported by site visits and inspections. This ensures that we assess progress and adherence to Climatech standards, as well as all customer plan documents and specifications. What we learn from the activities is shared with the workforce, in order to support the development of best practices, and to enable the team to work together to remediate problems and resolve any shortcomings identified. The success of the Climatech Quality Assurance Program has made a strong and positive contribution to our commitment to continuous quality improvement. At Climatech, we take pride in our products and services and place special emphasis on quality. The actual quality review process begins at the initial project development stage and continues until the work is completed. The detailed quality assurance procedures include a review of system components, energy performance, drawings, specifications, load calculations, air and water distribution sizing calculations, and equipment selections.
After the project has been completed, our program ensures that the customer is completely satisfied with the workmanship and system performance. We schedule a release meeting with all team members and present the owner’s operating manuals at this time. We make certain that the users understand who their Climatech contact is, as well as the terms of our warranty and how to receive warranty service. We also ensure that the customer is informed about the importance of a properly applied maintenance package and our desire to maintain their satisfaction for the life of the system.
Climatech holds EHS (Employee Health and Safety) in the highest regard. Our certified safety committee conducts monthly meetings geared towards taking a proactive rather than a reactive approach to EHS. Our employees take part in various programs, from New Hire Safety Orientation and Outreach Training Certification to additional task-specific supplemental training to recognize potential EHS hazards. Climatech also provides employees with all the tools and materials necessary to ensure that proper control measures are implemented to minimize employee exposure to hazards.
