Frequently asked questions

What is CSI Division 23?

HVAC — air handling, ductwork, hydronics, refrigeration, exhaust, and HVAC controls.

Why are HVAC controls a margin risk?

BAS integration scope is often vague — clarify what's mechanical-furnished vs. low-voltage scope before bid day.

Can BidEngine help HVAC contractors?

Yes — it pulls equipment schedules, ductwork SF, insulation, and control sequences from the bid package.
