What Are the Signs My Commercial HVAC System Needs Repairs?

A: In a commercial building the early warnings usually show up as complaints before they show up as a breakdown. Take these seriously:

• One end of the building comfortable and the other end not, or a zone that never reaches setpoint
• Rattling, grinding, or a hard clunk on startup from a rooftop or air handler
• Airflow that has gone weak at the registers with no change to the filter schedule
• A utility bill climbing while occupancy and hours stayed flat
• Ice on the line set, or water where the condensate drain should be handling it
• A breaker that has begun tripping on hot afternoons

Small electrical failures are cheap to fix and expensive to ignore. A failing capacitor or contactor takes the compressor with it if it runs long enough that way.
