Design Tips for an Effective Commercial HVAC System

-


Heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) accounts for 39% of the energy usage of commercial buildings in the USA. This means that it’s a crucial area of focus for any business looking to optimize their energy-efficiency, make significant cost-savings, and develop a more earth-friendly organization. Here are some tips and insights from leaders in the commercial HVAC industry in New Jersey.

How the Right HVAC Design can Impact your Building’s Performance 

 There are many things that go into designing a high-performance commercial building, whether you are building from the ground up or retro-fitting an older building. HVAC systems present a great opportunity for realizing these goals.

According to studies by the National Institute of Building Sciences, incorporating high-performance HVAC equipment into a whole building design can result in typical savings of 30% on annual energy costs – which can pay off your investment in just 3-5 years.

What to Consider when Designing Commercial HVAC Systems 
  • Know your design goals: HVAC systems are one important part of reaching energy-efficiency goals, and setting these performance objectives out at the very beginning is key to selecting the right systems and equipment with the right AFUE ratings needed for the design.
  • Consider the building as a whole: HVAC systems cannot be looked at in isolation if you want the best results, and should be considered along with architectural and engineering concerns like daylighting and cooling loads early on.
  • Size is everything: The HVAC system must be designed according to the buildings exact needs – there is no one-size-fits-all solutions that can be bought off the shelf. Having the right size system will ensure optimal results in terms of savings, air quality and comfort, and a system that is too large or too small will prevent these goals from being reached. This is especially important in refurbishments, where retrofitting must be done by an HVAC contractor who is experienced in creating custom solutions to overcome the challenges of old buildings.

A good commercial HVAC contractor is more than a company that you call when things start going wrong in your building – they’re a partner who works with you to ensure a healthy, comfortable environment for employees, clients and tenants. Here are some tips on finding a HVAC contractor that can be relied on for professional, expert service and advice. Essential paperwork:  One of the very first steps in this process is ensuring that the company has the correct permits and licensing from the state or municipality, and that they are in possession of a contract license surety bond. This ensures that the contractor is qualified and protects you against unfair dealings or if something goes wrong. It’s also important that your contractor has worker’s compensation insurance in case a worker is injured while working on your property. Don’t accept a quote over the phone:  Every building and HVAC system is unique, and there is simply no way to get an accurate grasp on what needs to be do

A proper heating system is essential for every commercial building, including factories and industrial sites, and having the correct  boiler system installed  and maintained by specialists is key to operational efficiency and minimal downtime. But all commercial Boiler service companies are not created equal. Levels of expertise, experience, access to specialized equipment, responsiveness, and integrity when considering repair or replace, are also critical. What to look for in your commercial boiler contractors  Commercial and industrial experience:  If you need an existing system maintained, repaired or upgraded, or a new system built from the ground up, residential boiler specialists simply won’t be able to help you – you need a partner who understands the demands of commercial heating systems. This is because scale isn’t the only factor at play – commercial systems have to work harder, have a role beyond just heating in many businesses, and often require advanced facilit
