Negative air pressure inside a building creates problems for both homes and commercial/industrial facilities. The simple description of negative air pressure is that it is when the air pressure inside a building is lower than the air pressure outside it.
This may not sound like a huge problem, but for a commercial or industrial building, negative air pressure can create several major issues that need to be addressed with proper ventilation and air pressure balancing.
Residential homes have standard maintenance program calendars: maintenance for the air conditioner in spring and for the heater in fall. It’s not so cut-and-dried for industrial facilities where cooling and heating systems often work year-round and handle more jobs than simply providing indoor comfort for customers and employees. The heating systems in an industrial facility serve numerous functions and must operate during all seasons, making their regular maintenance essential in periods when everyone else is scheduling service for their air conditioning systems.
A winter in Toronto can be tremendously stressful on the heating systems for homes, let alone commercial facilities. Almost any commercial or industrial building requires extensive heating systems with proper ventilation to maintain an environment that protects equipment and keeps any employees, customers, or other people in the building from freezing.
Maintenance is the best way to help your facility’s heating equipment soldiering through the winters, and our experts in commercial heating in Oshawa, ON will see you have the check-ups and inspections necessary during the year. We provide a customized maintenance program, not a generic check-list, for each of our customers, along with a dedicated account manager to ensure all facilities have the exact maintenance work necessary.
Air conditioning is a word that’s often misunderstood when it comes to the industrial and commercial world. People think of ACs as small systems sending out cool air to provide comfort. But the job of conditioning industrial and commercial spaces often involves systems far different from the air conditioning systems people are used to. For many large facilities, it takes the combined work of chiller and cooling towers to deliver the consistent lower temperatures that make work even possible in the first place.
We’ll look at the partnership of the chiller and the cooling tower in industrial/commercial buildings.
February is never too early when it comes to making plans for the middle of the year. It’s a good strategy if you own and operate a commercial or industrial facility always to be ready for the warm shift in weather that will change the stresses placed on your staff, customers, equipment, and process. The first hot day could arrive in early spring—the readiness is all!
This is a long way of saying that right now in February is not too early to schedule your regular commercial HVAC inspection and maintenance work for summer. In fact, we strongly recommend having it done now. Your AC and cooling equipment not only be ready for the first warm days, but they will perform at peak condition and prevent money wasted on running inefficient equipment. Plus, you’ll beat out the rush to have this work done later and take advantage of the easy availability of our technicians.
You took time during the fall to have new heaters installed for your commercial building or industrial facility. It could be new rooftop units, boilers, radiant heaters, or unit heaters. Whatever it was, you depended on the equipment working correctly during another rough Toronto Winter.
And here it is… and the heating system isn’t doing what it should. Perhaps it isn’t doing anything at all. Why would new equipment fail so rapidly after it was installed?
Before we look into what’s behind the trouble, make sure you know where to go to get it fixed. Whenever you require commercial heating repair in Oshawa, ON or elsewhere in the Greater Toronto Area, call on us. We have the skill and experience to see the best job gets done every time.
