When Late Summer Weather Is Too Much for Your Commercial AC

Monday, August 20th, 2018

thermometer-going-redWe’ve experienced a hot summer here in Toronto, and we can expect the temperatures to remain high for the foreseeable future. These conditions place a huge workload on any type of cooling system—but especially for the air conditioning system for a commercial or industrial facility. An air conditioner is not only doing the work of cooling off personnel, clients, and customers in a facility, it also must manage climate control to protect equipment and process. This is one of the reasons commercial and industrial ACs are more complex than residential air conditioning: a commercial AC handles multiple jobs, and the risk of a loss of cooling puts more in jeopardy than just stopping people indoors from sweating.

But what happens when all this summertime pressure overwhelms an AC, and suddenly you’ve not only got sweat but the threat of failing equipment and an operational shutdown?

Arrange to Service Your Rooftop AC Units Before Summer

Monday, April 30th, 2018

thermometer-going-redMaintaining the proper climate inside a commercial facility with cooling units isn’t only something to worry about during the hot weather of summer. The heat created in facilities from the equipment inside them often requires cooling systems. For example, server room cooling is essential for most businesses, even small ones, and it’s necessary around the year.

However, summer brings extra challenges for facilities where air conditioning is an essential part of comfort for employees, clients, customers, tenants, etc. This makes it essential to have maintenance service for rooftop air conditioning units before the hot weather arrives. The weather in Toronto is still cool, but it won’t remain that way for much longer—and you don’t want to get caught with any non-working air conditioning equipment when the summer weather strikes.

Arrange for Personalized HVAC Maintenance

Monday, July 24th, 2017

corssed-wrenchesMaintenance. It’s a standard word everyone knows in the commercial world, and everyone knows it’s important. But not everybody knows how important it is, or that not all maintenance is equal. When you arrange to have regular maintenance for the vital equipment that controls the environment in your commercial building, industrial building, or other facility, do you know exactly what you’re paying for? If it’s a random technician sent from a contractor that doesn’t work closely with you, you’ll probably get a maintenance inspection and check-up that consists of going down a list of items and checking them off one by one, without much regard for the numerous differences between different types of air conditioning, heating, and other environmental systems.

What your business needs is personalized maintenance through a contractor who customizes the service to meet your specific needs and who works closely with you. That’s what you’ll get when you arrange for commercial HVAC maintenance in Toronto, ON with us.
