HVAC Maintenance For Your Commercial Property

2/18/2020 (Permalink)

Maintenance is something you are always concerned about when you own a commercial property of any kind. Equipment and machinery need to be cared for properly so that you don’t lose business, time, or money. One important maintenance aspect of your business is the interior environmental climate you provide for your staff and clientele, so HVAC maintenance is going to be high on your list of projects to complete thoroughly and regularly.

Depending on the total square footage of your enterprise, you may want to consider setting up a contract with a professional HVAC company. The owner of a smaller business might be able to maintain their system themselves, while larger companies are going to need professional assistance.

A professional that handles large-scale maintenance of this kind will have a predetermined schedule that will include tune-ups, clean-and-checks, and other services whose purpose will be to keep your HVAC system and units performing at their best. 

Changing all the filters and humidifier pads on a regular basis will go a long way to prolong the life of your system, and your HVAC company will include that in your contract. 

Your HVAC company will be able to test your natural gas heating system to see if carbon monoxide is being released into spaces in your building due to gas not burning completely. This is a project that would be difficult for anyone without the necessary training. With the right equipment, they can determine oxygen levels, as well as carbon monoxide levels and flue temperature, allowing your furnaces to be adjusted for optimum performance. 

You will want to calculate costs and benefits before you engage a professional on a maintenance contract. Some companies will provide priority service at reduced rates for service calls to customers who have maintenance contracts, and you will have the peace of mind that comes from knowing there is an experienced eye doing regular inspections, alleviating any guesswork.
