Flashback Friday! This week, we're spotlighting Graham Kapowsin High School in the Bethel School District! Fun Fact: Our team served as the commissioning authority for the original build in 2003 and again during the 2021 addition and renovation. Did you know the school initially supported only grades 10 and 11 in its first year, expanded to grade 12 in 2006, and added grade 9 in 2012? In the initial construction of the 161,000 sq ft facility, we commissioned the HVAC and controls. For the 2021 renovation, we also commissioned the domestic hot water, lighting controls, and energy metering. The Performance Validation Team is proud to have supported Graham Kapowsin High School since 2003, ensuring a safe and comfortable environment for students to learn and foster community!

About us
We commission all building systems; HVAC and controls, plumbing, mechanical, electrical, renewable resources, emergency power, safety and security, and data envelope and communication; from new construction, retro, or existing buildings to monitoring-based commissioning. Commissioning building systems for quality performance was a relatively new idea when we began our partnership in 1999. On Jan 1, 2021 Welsh Commissioning Group was acquired by Performance Validation, a 100% Employee Owned Company. As an employee owned company our goal and business model remains the same: to ensure that building construction goes smoothly for our clients. We provide third-party, unbiased reviews that bring confidence to owners that their buildings meet construction document requirements, that their systems function at specified performance, and that they have achieved the best value for their construction dollar.
