Why Do Companies Need Commercial HVAC?

10 / 25 / 2022

Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) are systems that deal with moving air throughout a building. These systems are responsible for providing cool or hot air to a building depending on what the area needs. When it comes to providing ventilation to buildings, Commercial HVAC is often overlooked by companies in favor of cheaper, easy-to-install air conditioning and heating systems. Peterson Mechanical is here to tell you why Commercial HVAC is the best choice for your company’s buildings.

 

Commercial HVAC and Energy Efficiency

The development and installation of new Commercial HVAC systems for buildings are now primarily focused on energy efficiency. This means that replacing larger, more advanced systems that were previously in use is a good move, due to the fact that older equipment will cost more to operate and be less effective at cooling or heating a space than newer equipment. Additionally, installing updated systems can protect everyone from potential risks, like a fire or system failure.

 

How Commercial HVAC Helps With Productivity

Commercial HVAC installation is a need, not an option, for certain companies. These companies require specific HVAC systems to function, often integrated with specialized windows for proper ventilation and temperature control. This can include businesses that rely on refrigeration, ice machines, hot and cold water systems, and gas stoves and ovens. In these cases, windows become a crucial part of the overall HVAC system, ensuring proper air circulation and exhaust for optimal performance

 

As such, installing an HVAC system may increase everyone’s productivity, depending on the facility in question and the size of your workforce. When the office building is too hot or cold to work in, it can be difficult for workers to concentrate on the task at hand. Your employees may also become moody and lazy when they are affected by unpleasant working conditions.

It is also important to consider that employees are only able to perform at their best under specific temperatures for health reasons. 

 

The use of Commercial HVAC technology may keep indoor spaces at a reasonable temperature, keep people happy, and even improve morale. In order to limit the quantity of dust and other allergy triggers that can pass through ventilation, many systems are now additionally fitted with filters. Therefore, installing HVAC systems can both improve interior air quality and prevent these staff members from sneezing, allowing them to concentrate at work if they have allergies to certain airborne triggers.

 

Improved Building Humidity and Air Conditions

Offices may feel hotter than they actually are due to increased humidity. Mold and mildew can grow in humid environments, which increases the risk of respiratory problems and issues with employees who wear things like glasses or contact lenses. An office’s ideal humidity level can be maintained by a good air conditioning system. Additionally, because air conditioning systems can filter out dust, allergens, and other pollutants while also removing odors, the air quality in an office can be enhanced. This may lessen allergic reactions, colds, and respiratory issues.

 

Preserving Equipment

Computers, servers, and other crucial business equipment are present in every office in most cases. The bulk of this sort of equipment produces heat, so it is important to keep it cold to prevent breakdowns or misbehavior. In order for office equipment to operate at its best, it can be helpful to regulate the office’s temperature. Air conditioning can remove heat and humidity from places like server rooms and disperse it, protecting your business-critical equipment. Additionally, regular cleaning of equipment vents and fans can ensure optimal airflow, further preventing overheating and extending the lifespan of your devices. Companies that deal with food preparation in particular can preserve the condition of their equipment with the right Commercial HVAC systems.
