Attention Property Managers! Save Costs with More Efficient HVAC Systems!

Property manager and building owners know that one of the largest sources of energy use within a commercial facility in the heating and air conditioning system. So if you are looking to meet your financial goals and find places to cut costs, it makes sense to ensure your HVAC systems are running efficiently. When was the last time you had your HVAC equipment maintained? When it’s running without issues, it’s easy to forget about checking it or preparing it for the upcoming cooling weather.

Reducing Utility Costs with HVAC Preventive Maintenance

Making minor adjustments, checking for proper performance, replacing worn parts all add up to better performance, fewer issues later on, and reduced energy usage. Preventive maintenance upfront before your HVAC equipment fails will save you money in the long run, and help to ensure your tenants are satisfied with comfortable indoor temperatures. Here are just a few things that our qualified service technicians inspect to identify potential problems with HVAC systems, motors and generators.

1. Ductwork: With the use of infrared technology, our HVAC technician can locate areas of thermal escape.
2. Fans and Blowers: Check for misalignment of the fans and blowers, which can lead to overheating.
3. Airflow: Check for restricted airflow which hinders HVAC efficiency and can cause overheating.
4. Insulation: Check for high housing temperatures.
5. Electrical Connections: Inspect for corroded or loose connections.
6. Bearings: Identify bearing failures with thermal imaging.
