Commercial HVAC

Alexandria Heating and Air - Commercial HVAC 2

Commercial heating and air takes the same standard of residential heating services and translates it to accommodate larger properties. If your HVAC units are not thoroughly maintained throughout the year with excessive use, your building and the guests inside of it can become prone to sick building syndrome, airborne illness, or inconvenience from overheating or lack of warm water. Commercial HVAC services are designed especially for office buildings where guests work daily and interact with one another regularly, or other spaces where residents live such as nursing homes or condos, as well as schools, shopping malls, and medical offices.

Heating

We provide commercial heating services for large-scale properties and buildings. Often times, if the space available is of a greater scale, we’ll recommend using more than one heating unit to heat the entire building. Multiple heaters can be installed throughout the building to heat different parts of it but can still be controlled using a centralized system. This makes it easier to adjust and regulate the temperatures throughout the building, especially for multilevel buildings.

Air Conditioning

The Summers can sometimes be brutal and without air conditioning, how do you expect your employees to work or guests to feel comfortable? Air conditioning units are installed into commercial properties for the same reason they’re needed everywhere else – to keep people cool! Overheating in the warmth can reduce motivation and even lead to illness for some. Air conditioning units can be installed in one of two ways, either centralized or individually. Centralized air conditioning evenly distributes cool air throughout the building but may be less noticeable unless lowered to reduced temperatures, while individual air conditioning units are installed to cool a single space or room. These units give more control to one specific area of a space, but centralized air typically performs just as well when given time to disperse, working better for larger spaces.

Installation and Maintenance

The installation and maintenance of commercial heating and air units are similar to standard residential ones but will often require more space to accommodate larger heaters, water tanks, and more ventilation systems to circulate the heating, air conditioning, and water throughout the whole building evenly. We’re here to help keep HVAC units in their best condition and provide regular maintenance, when needed. Maintenance should be performed on the units annually to ensure that they continually meet code standard and are functioning to their highest ability.

Code Standards

As with any installation of an HVAC system, we work around local codes and regulations to ensure that all of your equipment is efficiently secure. Commercial properties have more code regulations to meet, given the size of the space and the number of visitors or guests anticipated in the building at once. Not only do heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems need to be safely installed to meet the needs of multiple people throughout a large space, but they need to be secure enough to function simultaneously. All of our commercial HVAC services are highly durable and equally efficient.
