M S Engineers also recommended sophisticated humidity and temperature controls, zone air volume control, make-up and exhaust ventilation system including fume hood exhaust system.  

Plumbing: Design of air, water, gas, vacuum, and distill water systems for fish tank, new water purifier Millipore unit, biology benches, and equipment including Fume hood, alligator tank and the fish tanks. 

Electrical: Design of panel loads, existing lighting, fire alarm and emergency power systems in the building. Additional design include new lighting panel to serve new energy efficient lighting and emergency power panel to serve lab equipment such as freezers, fish and alligator tanks, power racks, purifier pumps, fume hood and HVAC equipment. Also, M S Engineers designed ADA complaint fire alarm devices.
