Our vision

Southwest Engineering (Ontario) provides engineering services to the public and focuses on improving the built environment in a fiscally responsible way. All organizations have budgets.  Not every great idea will pay its own way.  SWE assists clients to take advantage of available technologies while not ignoring financial realities.  Our personnel, with three decades of experience in the field and a focus on retrofit projects, allows us to tackle the thorniest of problems in a practical way.

Selected project examples:

  • Application of condensing boiler technologies to improve combustion efficiencies by 20% and more.
  • Design of air-to-air heat recovery systems to drastically reduce ventilation costs.
  • Conversion of a high-rise electrically-heated building to high-efficiency hot water heat.
  • Upgrades to process heating and cooling to improve energy efficiencies and provide closer control.
  • Design for conversion from pneumatic to digital controls.
  • Design of commercial kitchen ventilation systems.
  • Design of high efficiency chilled water systems for commercial and industrial clients, including magnetic levitation chillers.
