What To Do When Your Business’ HVAC Stops Working

commercial-hvac-workers-assessing-a-building

If you’re a business owner, you understand the important role that your HVAC system plays in maintaining a comfortable and productive work environment for your employees, customers, clients, tenants, etc. The HVAC system is also important for protecting equipment and helping parts of your business to function. 

But even with the best regular maintenance for your HVAC equipment, something can still go wrong unexpectedly. When that happens, you can’t wait for the situation to simply “get better” (it won’t). You’ll need to act quickly to deal with it, and that will likely include calling for experts in commercial HVAC in Dublin, GA to repair or replace the non-working components.

Let’s go through a step-by-step process of what you can do if you’re faced with a commercial HVAC emergency.

Assess the Situation

Take a moment to check for any obvious signs of malfunction, such as strange noises or unusual odors from the system. Evaluate whether the system has completely broken down or is experiencing a partial malfunction. Please don’t attempt any DIY repairs (such as climbing onto the roof to investigate the rooftop units), as this can be dangerous and may cause further damage.

Make Temporary Changes

Try to alleviate the immediate seriousness of the situation with any adjustments you can, such as opening up windows and doors to allow for ventilation or adjusting the thermostat appropriately if parts of the HVAC system are still operating.

Check Power Supply

Next, check the power supply to the HVAC system to ensure that it’s receiving electricity. Check circuit breakers and fuses related to the HVAC unit to determine if there are any issues with the electrical supply. 

Contact a Professional HVAC Contractor

Once you’ve assessed the situation and made temporary adjustments, it’s time to contact a reputable commercial HVAC contractor for assistance. You can count on the Premier team for the fast and effective services necessary to diagnose the problem and find solutions.

Communicate With Employees and Customers

Inform your employees and customers about the HVAC issue and any temporary measures you’ve taken to maintain comfort in the workplace. Consider adjusting operating hours or relocating activities if necessary to minimize disruption to your business operations. Additionally, assure your customers that you’re working diligently to resolve the issue and maintain a comfortable environment for them.
