As a trusted air conditioning and water heater repair company, we understand the important role commercial HVAC systems play in keeping commercial buildings and properties comfortable during the winter months. If your system isn’t managed properly, unexpected problems can occur, and you may end up having to pay more in repairs.
To understand why your system needs proper maintenance, you need to know what can happen to it in the winter:
Unexpected shutdowns. Winter weather can put additional strain and wear on your HVAC system if it’s not regularly maintained. This can lead to a sudden system shutdown and cause discomfort for the customers, employees or tenants of your commercial property. A regular preventive maintenance program will lessen the likelihood of this happening, as it ensures that all the system components are clean and in good repair.
Temperature inconsistencies. During the winter, your system may operate in heating mode for a few hours, then switch over to cooling mode to adjust to your comfort settings. This isn’t always consistent, as there are several factors at play, such as the changing outdoor temperature, the number of occupants on your property and other machinery and equipment. Temperature inconsistencies can be reduced with the right thermostat, so consult with a trusted technician to verify whether you need to upgrade the one currently installed in your system.
How You Can Prevent HVAC Problems
- Preventive maintenance – As we mentioned earlier, creating a preventive maintenance program with a professional AC repair company is a great way to keep your system running at peak efficiency. Not only will a maintenance agreement ensure that seasonal checkups are done on schedule, but having an HVAC maintenance agreement means you’ll receive priority service in the event of equipment failure or other problems. This will also help you identify issues early in the winter season, enabling you to prevent problems from occurring later on.
- Get the best settings for your thermostat – Hire a professional HVAC technician to calibrate all the thermostats on your commercial property. This will aid in keeping your system running efficiently; if the thermostats are too far off from each other, they won’t not be as efficient as they should be, and you’ll end up paying more on your monthly energy bill.
