How To Prepare Your Commercial HVAC System for Winter

-


It’s Fall, and that means that icy New Jersey winters are on their way. Just like homes, commercial properties should be prepared for the coldest months to ensure that their heating and ventilation systems run smoothly. Here are some tips from your commercial HVAC contractor.

  • Replace air filters: Your system will work hard through the winter – and clogged or dirty air filters will only make it work harder, making your energy bills increase significantly. The additional stress on your system will also lead to greater wear-and-tear on the system components which can lead to poor heating and repairs. New filters mean lower stress on your system, better heating results and healthy, clean air for everyone inside.
  • Seal your building: This is important for reducing cooling as well as heating costs, leading to year-round savings. Check for air leaks around doors and windows, install entrance doors that minimize air leakage and drafts, and invest in insulation from head to toe. People indoors will be more comfortable and productive while your system saves money.
  • Check your thermostat: Even the most advanced thermostat can fail and a simple check of this piece of equipment can save thousands in heating costs. Make sure that the sensors are in good working order and make sure your heating configurations are properly set.
  • Don’t wait: The busiest time of the year for commercial HVAC contractors is the first snow fall and everyone realizes that their system isn’t coping – this means that wait times for service, parts and repairs gets longer. Instead, have your system professionally checked early in the Fall so that you may not have to suffer any downtime or chilly emergency situations.

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.

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
