You’ve started to notice hot or cold spots in the office, and customers or employees have noticed as well. Maybe there are odd burning smells coming from the vents, or rattling noises from the rooftop units above. Whatever the signs, you think you have repair issues with the commercial HVAC system that makes a comfortable environment in your business. Who should you call?
The rooftop unit is the workhorse of the commercial HVAC world. Even people with no knowledge of how heating and cooling works for a commercial building know that the machines that keep the rooms throughout the structure comfortable are located on the roof.
When you’ve had the same air conditioner working to cool down your home for many years, you will eventually reach a decision point regarding it: should you continue to the system it when it malfunctions, or has the time arrive when you should install a new AC?
In the world of commercial HVAC systems, rooftop package units dominate. They are so common that people who know nothing about commercial heating and cooling still automatically know that the devices that perform the job are located on the roof of a building.
If you grew up in the United States, you probably first saw John Trumbull’s painting of the Signing of the Declaration of Independence in an elementary schoolbook. This oil-on-canvas 12’ x 18’ painting hangs in the rotunda of the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C.
If you’re worried about energy efficiency with your new air conditioning installation, looking at SEER ratings is a great place to begin. The SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) determines how energy efficient your cooling system will be throughout the season. This can be an important factor in lowering your summer energy bills.
In principle, commercial HVAC systems don’t differ in any significant way from residential HVAC systems. Both use constantly cycling refrigerant gas to lower the temperature of the air, which can then be blown through the space via a fan and a system of ducts.
Ductless air conditioning systems are just what they sound like: a system without the ducts that run through attics and crawlspaces to spread cool air through your home. Instead, it spaces a number of individual, self-contained air conditioner units in different places throughout your home.
Air conditioners are not designed specifically to combat humidity (although some models have dehumidifiers built into them). However, through their action of absorbing heat from the indoors of a home or building, they also remove some moisture from the air, and this can assist with lowering high humidity levels—and sometimes making a home too dry during periods of low humidity
