3 Things That Commonly Go Wrong with Commercial HVAC Systems

Commercial heating and cooling systems are made to last for a long time, but as time goes by it’s inevitable that their components will eventually break down. When this happens, indoor comfort is reduced — which can affect the productivity of employees or even drive customers away. In short, a malfunctioning commercial HVAC system is bad for business.

3 Things That Commonly Go Wrong with Commercial HVAC Systems

In this article, Stone Heating and Air, a top-rated HVAC repair specialist, discusses some of the most common problems encountered by commercial HVAC systems.

Dirty Filters and Condensers

Commercial HVAC filters should be replaced regularly. The frequency depends on the type of business you have, but it can be done as often as once per month. Remember that dirty filters can impede airflow and cause overheating.

Don’t forget to check the evaporator coils too. Make sure they’re not dirty or clogged, as dirt buildup can reduce the efficiency of your HVAC system.

Thermostat Problems

Before concluding that you’re in need of an HVAC replacement, you’d better check your thermostats. A common reason why commercial thermostats fail is quite simple — drained batteries. Manufacturers typically recommend changing the batteries out once a year, or as soon as the low battery indicator shows up on the digital display.

Neglect

It’s true that HVAC maintenance can sometimes disrupt business. However, this is a minor inconvenience compared to the hassle of replacing a broken HVAC component, something which can often be prevented just by keeping the system well-maintained. Experts say a bi-annual maintenance check is ideal, so make sure to have your technician inspect and test your HVAC system when a new season approaches.

We had our AC go out on one of the hottest days of the year. We called as soon as they opened and they came out so quickly and offered us some loaner units to keep our babies and animals cool in the meantime. Matt was so helpful and fixed the problem quickly. He went above and beyond to help us and we will be using Stone Heating and Air to replace our unit when it’s time. They’ll be our first call in the future!
