The National Balancing Council is committed to providing and maintaining a comprehensive set of values, standards, practices, and procedures governing the field of testing, balancing, and adjusting commercial environmental systems. Our members pledge to faithfully uphold the highest standards of integrity and professionalism in the industry as a requisite to certification. NBC stands fully dedicated to the advancement of the testing and balancing field, and the support of its membership through training, communication, and leadings-edge methodology. NBC Philosophy

The distinguishing characteristic of an NBC certified supervisor or technician is the ability to prescribe solutions to the endless field conditions that prohibit an HVAC system from achieving balance and maximum field performance. Nearly all NBC technicians have extensive field experience in HVAC system repair, installation or service and possess skills required to troubleshoot the most difficult field conditions that can be revealed by their testing. These technicians test, diagnose and maximize the performance of over 200,00 HVAC systems per year. Practical Standards

Each certified supervisor and technician prescribes to National Balancing Council Practical Standards and Procedures. These cover a full range of testing, balancing, adjusting, and diagnostic practices backed up by NBC Reporting forms. CSER and HSER

In addition to traditional independent test reports, NBC technicians can provide an efficiency rating of the installed system. These ratings can be compared to manufacturer's equipment efficiency ratings to offer a new view of system performance that is not offered anywhere else in the HVAC industry. CSER represents Cooling System Efficiency Rating and HSER is Heating System Efficiency Rating. Technical Support and Backup

NBC provides its certified technicians with toll free technical support. New field conditions affecting HVAC system performance are uncovered daily. Experienced support is available as a benefit of certification. Architects, engineers, and building maintenance staff are welcome to contact NBC with their questions and comments as well at 800-633-7058.
