If you own or operate a commercial business, you need to know that commercial HVAC requirements are much different from residential ones. This applies even to a smaller facility. Commercial systems must work longer, handle greater volumes of heating and cooling, and deal with a larger number of people. 

Because of this, your commercial AC system needs specially trained and equipped technicians to handle any repairs it might need over the summer. How can you find the right contractors and technicians for these jobs? If you’re delaying service, know that postponing HVAC repairs can lead to bigger issues that affect both comfort and energy efficiency in your commercial space.

How Your Ductwork Can Become Leaky

Monday, February 13th, 2023

You would never set sail on the ocean, or even a small river or lake, with a leaky boat. But plenty of homeowners are content to run their heating and cooling systems with leaky ducts. They often don’t realize that they have ducts with leaks, but even if they do know, they may shrug it off as not that big a deal.

Although leaky ducts won’t put your life at risk the way a leaky boat would, it’s still not a good situation. When ducts develop air leaks, they cause several problems for a home:

  • A rise in heating and cooling costs because of all the air that’s getting away
  • Poor comfort, with hot and cold spots appearing around the house and poor airflow from the vents
  • Dust and other unwanted particles getting into the the ductwork and then into the living spaces

The best way to counteract this problem is to arrange for professional duct sealing in Riverdale, GA with our team. We’ll use our training and the best tools available to make your ducts airtight once again.

What to Do About Uneven Heating in Your Commercial Property

Monday, January 30th, 2023

Commercial spaces present big challenges when it comes to heating and cooling them. Even smaller commercial facilities are larger than the average-sized home and have far more people in them. Businesses often contain large, heat-creating equipment and have special climate requirements. For example, server rooms need to have specialized cooling and ventilation to prevent computer equipment from overheating.

One of the major challenges for commercial heating is ensuring proper heat distribution. A home may be able to get away with a few rooms that are colder than the others, but this isn’t something that should occur in a commercial space (unless by specific design, such as in a server room). If you begin to hear complaints about cold spots in your commercial business from employees, customers, clients, tenants, etc., it’s something you’ll want fixed. We’ll look at the ways our professionals can help improve your commercial heating in Covington, GA when it’s uneven.
