An HVAC system can either run up the energy bill or help improve efficiencies. It’s all in the HVAC design and installation that will determine whether your system will work well for you or not.

Understanding how your commercial HVAC system works is critical to deciding if it’s time to update and replace the system. Commercial establishments that improve energy efficiencies by as little as 5% can boost revenue exponentially.

So let’s crawl into your HVAC system and see how it works:

• Your system design is based on the floor plan layout – allowing for ductwork and ventilation to hit every area.
• Duct registers and air flow vents are strategically placed in each room for optimal air flow.
• Air is pulled from the outside environment and is filtered through the ERV/HRVs, which essentially disinfects and cleans the air.
• The air blows through evaporator coils, which removes humidity and cools the temperature.
• The blower and wheel propel the air through the HVAC.

Energy Saving HVAC Systems and HVAC Units

While understanding how your commercial HVAC unit works may help you decide whether to revise and update it, determining which energy saving HVAC unit is right for you is also critical.

Property administrators should understand the important factors that contribute to a quality HVAC unit:

• The system or unit must be properly sized and designed to accommodate your specific building.
• The system must have sealed supply ductwork for efficient and proper energy flow.
• The system must have balanced air flow between supply and return system.
• The system must be filled with proper refrigerant, plus an efficiently working burner operation and draft.

HVAC Contractors and Maintenance Plans

How can you determine which HVAC contractor to hire when you have a specific maintenance plan and specially designed system? While many HVAC contractors say they specialize in commercial HVAC, most don’t understand the complexities and specifics required on a larger, commercial scale. When it comes to your system HVAC, trust only the leading commercial HVAC contractor.
