TAB Professional

This course combines classroom learning with practical experience to build a strong foundation in testing and balancing HVAC systems. Students study core topics such as thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, psychrometrics, electricity, and system safety, while also gaining a working understanding of TAB calculations and HVAC equipment.

Through hands-on exercises and daily problem-solving challenges, students develop critical technical and analytical skills. Experienced EAB instructors guide students in using professional instruments, conducting duct traverses, performing system measurements, adjusting components, and interpreting system performance data to prepare them for real-world TAB work.

This course combines classroom instruction with practical training to prepare students for real-world HVAC control system verification. Classroom learning builds a foundation in control theory, networking, programming, sensor types, control devices, calibration, sequence verification, safety devices, and circuits. Hands-on training using custom HVAC simulation workstations reinforces these concepts through applied learning.

Students also complete problem-solving challenges during lab activities and daily homework, strengthening the critical thinking and analytical skills required in the TAB profession. The course is designed to provide job-ready skills for performing control systems verification as part of Total System Balancing for basic HVAC systems in commercial and institutional buildings.

This course trains students in Total System Balancing for complex HVAC systems required for the AABC Test and Balance Engineer (TBE) Exam. The program covers advanced topics such as UFAD, smoke control testing, energy recovery, laboratory and healthcare HVAC, chilled beams, steam fundamentals, vibration testing, and chilled and heating water systems.

Through hands-on training at EAB’s Training Center and daily problem-solving challenges, students apply classroom concepts to real-world scenarios. Led by instructors with decades of industry experience, the course builds the technical and analytical skills needed to balance complex systems in healthcare, research, manufacturing, and mission-critical facilities.

This course prepares students to balance HVAC systems in commercial buildings through a combination of classroom learning and practical training. It covers key topics such as reading construction documents, performing air leakage tests, control sequences, hydronic and air balancing procedures, duct system effects, acoustics, kitchen ventilation, and pre-TAB planning.

Students apply this knowledge through hands-on training that includes leakage testing, troubleshooting fans, verifying control operation, measuring sound levels, and balancing multiple air and hydronic systems. With guidance from industry-expert EAB instructors, students develop the technical and analytical skills required to perform Total System Balancing.

Recommendations: TAB Fundamentals course and 2–5 years of TAB experience. Participants must have a solid understanding of instrumentation, equipment, system components, and fundamental TAB calculations (including electrical formulas, fan laws, pump laws, psychrometrics, density correction, and heat transfer).
