What Does Industrial HVAC Services Include?

No matter where you go, you will find that HVAC systems are used everywhere, from small buildings like homes and shops to large-scale appliances used in commercial and industrial buildings. Nevertheless, there exists a clear difference between residential and industrial HVACs. Even with that, the industrial HVAC services are mostly the same as the residential ones, with a few differences here and there.

Typically, industrial HVAC services include a broad range of the following categories.

Installation Of Industrial HVAC Systems:

Just like Industrial HVAC services, industrial HVAC services also include installing the appliance and the related components. The main difference is in the installation process itself. The residential ACs are typically split systems, which require their components to be installed in different places. In comparison, industrial HVAC systems are modular, meaning that everything is packed in one single unit that can be installed. For more efficiency, more units could be installed later on.

Maintenance:

Unlike residential HVAC systems, which do not need as much maintenance as companies claim, industrial HVAC has to be maintained constantly. The reason for that is that the system is not in the use of one single person. Instead, there is a large group of people in addition to machinery and other objects, etc., in the building dependent on the system.

If anything goes wrong due to improper maintenance, the whole system will grind to a halt, and numerous people will be stranded without it. Another reason why maintenance is essential is that it prolongs the system’s life, requiring fewer repairs and replacements.

Repair:

Again, just like in normal HVACs, industrial HVAC services also include the diagnostic test and repair of the system. Although the technician has to be experienced, knowledgeable, and a specialist in that specific technology where repair is required.

Replacement:

Sometimes, repair and maintenance are not enough, so the specific components have to be replaced to run the system.

Inspection:

The whole system, vents, filters, ducts, machinery, etc., need a proper inspection every few months to ensure the smooth running of the system. This also includes checking the filters, evaporator coils, cooling and heating levels, energy loss, pipes, machinery, etc., to learn where repair and replacement are necessary and where maintenance is enough.

Cleaning:

There are many parts of the HVAC system that require proper cleaning, including filters, coils, refrigerant lines, drain pans, vents, pipes, tanks, boiler, etc., which, if left unclean, can decrease the air quality of the building. Especially cleaning tubes is one of the most common services provided in this category, as mold and other bacteria and allergens festering in hidden corners can be pretty dangerous.

Providing And Installing Related Equipment:

It is not just an air conditioner or heater that comprises the HVAC system. It includes various components that have to be integrated into the system for it to work to its maximum potential. Many industrial HVAC services provide the customers with necessary equipment like thermostats, boilers, chillers, VRF units, dehumidifiers, VAV systems, make-up air handlers, balancing, and building automation systems, to name a few.
