What Are the Signs My Commercial HVAC System Needs Repairs?

A: In a commercial building the early signs usually reach you as complaints rather than symptoms, so it helps to know what each complaint tends to mean.

  • "The back office is always hot" — a zone problem: a failed damper, a dead zone motor, or one rooftop unit down while the others mask it
  • "There's a smell when the heat comes on" — stop and call. Combustion issues are not a wait-and-see item.
  • "It's loud out there now" — bearings, a failing blower wheel, or a fan motor on its way out
  • Utility cost up with no change in occupancy or hours — often a refrigerant charge problem or coils fouled with red dirt
  • Water staining on ceiling tile below a rooftop unit — a blocked condensate drain, which becomes a building-damage problem quickly

Commercial repair pricing is quoted per system, not from our residential list. We work Monday through Friday, 8:00am to 6:00pm, and take after-hours and weekend calls at the after-hours rate; our target is to begin response within about four hours, though we won't promise a clock.
