Tips from your Commercial HVAC Contractor to Keep a Cool Factory Floor

-

Many industries operate 24/7 with machinery running constantly. Much of this equipment generates heat, both internal to the machine, and to the surrounding factory floor, generating elevated temperatures within the facility. These higher temperatures can contribute to machinery overheating, lubricants breaking down, not to mention affecting the comfort and safety of employees. Every industry has different problems in this regard as their machines and processes all vary. While many require custom solutions, there are a few general practices that operation managers should keep in mind when setting up or running their floor.
  • Install ceiling-mounted fans: Facilitating air flow within the building is a critical part of effective cooling. Ceiling-mounted fans will break up pockets of hot air trapped in the roof area and can lower temperature by around 7%. High volume, low speed fans are best for this application, especially if they’re programmable and working in tandem with your commercial HVAC system. This takes load pressure off your HVAC system and can help you achieve more energy-efficient cooling.
  • Zoned cooling: Very few commercial and industrial buildings require the same, intense level of cooling throughout. For example, a factory floor has different requirements to your factory office space. By regulating cooling by setting different temperatures for different zones by using programmable thermostats and controls, you can maximize energy-efficiency and comfort, reducing operating costs and boosting productivity. An experienced commercial heating/cooling contractor like Tri-Tech has a wealth of techniques and custom designed solutions for these operating challenges.

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

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.

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

Looking for a  commercial HVAC contractor  to maintain, repair, design or install a new HVAC system for your building? Here’s some advice to help you find the right team for the job. Don’t Make These Mistakes When Hiring a Commercial Contractor  You don’t know what you need:  Of course, your HVAC contractor should be able to do a full assessment of your system and advise you on repairs or upgrades, but it’s important that you have an informed idea of the services you are seeking. Are you making energy-efficiency a priority? Is your system making strange noises and emitting unpleasant smells? What is your budget? You don’t get multiple quotes:  Unless you have industry experience, it’s very difficult to tell when a quote is reasonable or not, which makes getting multiple quotes essential. Call in at least three contractors and have them assess the situation and see what they offer before you accept an estimate. You don’t ask for references:  The best way to find out if your
