Comments Off on Is Your Industrial HVAC Technician Legit?

When it comes to commercial or industrial HVAC installation, maintenance and repair, you want to ensure the company and technicians you hire are up for the task. Many HVAC companies offer commercial service, but not all have the experience and expertise needed for large, industrial operations. Before hiring a HVAC contractor, take the time to vet and choose the best one for the job. Here are some tips to ensure your HVAC technician is legit for industrial projects.

  • Does the HVAC company do both residential and commercial work? While there is nothing wrong with doing both, this means they are spread thin. There are many more residential customers than industrial, which means they may not have the resources available when you need them for your business.
  • Experience in industrial HVAC systems. There is a big difference between servicing a commercial HVAC system for a small restaurant and one for a large manufacturing outfit or hospital. Make sure they have experience and references from industrial projects, not just smaller commercial jobs.
  • Years of expertise. Choose a HVAC contractor that has been specializing in industrial systems for decades. You want technicians that can work on older HVAC systems as well as newer ones.
  • Services offered. While you may just need a repair or maintenance service now, consider the needs you may have in the future. Choose a company that offers retrofits, HVAC automation and complete installation of new systems to meet all your current and future HVAC needs.

Your industrial HVAC system can have a large impact on your business. Make sure you find the best contractor to service your system to get the best value for your investment.

Considerations During a Commercial HVAC Retrofit

Comments Off on Considerations During a Commercial HVAC Retrofit

Does your commercial building need a new HVAC system? Adding a new system can be more complicated than just replacing one or two components. An HVAC retrofit can involve changing many aspects within your structure. The result can improve the efficiency of your business’ HVAC system, saving substantial money and improving productivity. But before you begin a HVAC retrofit project, here are a few factors to consider:

  • Will you need changes to your building structure? Your HVAC retrofit can require some changes to your building, including the roof, windows, walls and even masonry. You need to have the construction aspect covered to ensure the project goes smoothly in conjunction with the new HVAC system installation.
  • Are their electrical requirements for your new HVAC system? If you have an older commercial building, there is a good chance the electrical may need to be updated for your retrofit. This upgrade will need to coincide with construction work without delaying the entire project.
  • Do you have a project coordinator? You have a business to run; you can’t afford extensive downtime caused by hiccups during your retrofit. You need a project coordinator that can schedule and organize all the different contractors to ensure your project is completed on time and within budget.

One option to cover all these factors is to find a commercial HVAC service that offers complete HVAC retrofits from start to finish. There are experienced commercial HVAC services that can manage the entire process, including coordinating the different contractors required for a smooth, efficient project completion.

A new HVAC system for your older commercial building can have a positive impact on your bottom line with improved efficiency. Make sure you have an experienced HVAC service on your side for problem-free retrofit.

Tips for Businesses Considering an HVAC Retrofit

Comments Off on Tips for Businesses Considering an HVAC Retrofit

When it comes time to replace an HVAC system for a commercial or industrial building, there are many factors to consider. This can be a large project that involves much more than a simple replacement of just a few HVAC components. For large scale businesses, this can require changes in your building’s structure and a large amount of welding, electrical and carpentry work from several different contractors. To avoid expensive shutdowns of your productivity floor or inconvenience for your tenants, consider these tips to make sure your retrofit goes smoothly.

  • Hire a commercial HVAC expert. First and foremost, you want an HVAC service company that specializes in commercial and industrial applications. This is not a job for an HVAC company that does mostly residential and small business HVAC installation and service.
  • Find a retrofit specialist. Your HVAC company should also have extensive experience in HVAC retrofit projects. This is much different than installing for new construction where time and budget constraints are not as crucial.
  • Retrofit coordinator. There may need to be several different contractors working together to complete an HVAC retrofit. To ensure a quick and efficient install, hire an HVAC contractor that offers project coordination services for retrofit projects. Having the project overseen and managed under one contractor can help avoid miscommunication and project delays for maximum efficiency.

While there are many HVAC service companies that service and install commercial HVAC systems, it is important to choose carefully for a retrofit project. Downtime for any commercial enterprise is expensive, so it is worth the investment to find an industrial HVAC company that is experienced in HVAC retrofits so that the job is completed on time and within budget.
