Designing Heating and Cooling Systems in Large Buildings

Have you ever wondered what goes into a heating or air conditioning system for a large office building or another large building like a mall or a school? My name is Evelyn, and I am an HVAC architect. I design heating and air conditioning systems for large, corporate buildings. Making sure that a large building with many rooms or offices is efficiently heated and cooled is a very large job and is much more complicated than simply heating or cooling a home. This blog will educate the reader on how heating and cooling jobs this large are designed and completed.

3 Compelling Reasons To Sign Up For AC Maintenance Plans

Nicole Jacobs

With a poorly maintained AC, your home's comfort levels drop, and your wallet suffers due to high energy costs. On the other hand, regular maintenance allows you to address minor issues before they affect your AC's performance or cause system failure.

With an annual or bi-annual maintenance plan, professionals can inspect your unit and service crucial components to enhance smooth system operation.

Here are three compelling reasons you should sign up for an AC maintenance plan. 

Saves You Money

Regular maintenance helps spot issues as soon as they crop up. This way, your HVAC professional can repair any faulty components before they completely break down and need costly replacement parts.

Furthermore, if your AC has dirty filters that restrict airflow, your AC has to work extra hard which makes it draw excess electricity. A maintenance plan gives your system the attention and care it needs to operate at maximum efficiency. 

An efficient unit draws less power, which saves you money on energy costs significantly. To put it simply, a cleaned and tuned air conditioner can handle the brutal summer heat better without unnecessary pricey repairs due to frequent system breakdowns.  

Improves Indoor Comfort

The internal components of your air conditioner (like the air filter and vents) tend to collect a lot of dust during operation. The result is airflow restrictions that lower the comfort levels of your home. 

Moreover, dirty filters and vents affect the indoor air quality, which isn't good if you have household members with respiratory ailments (like asthma) or allergies. If you sign up for a maintenance plan, the HVAC contractors clean and replace the necessary components of your AC to ensure only clean air circulates in your home. 

Gas and refrigerant leaks often happen in poorly maintained systems. If left untreated, the toxic fumes released into your home can adversely affect your health. Luckily, the HVAC technicians tighten all connections to ensure no leaks exist in your system.  

Extends the Life of Your Air Conditioner

A maintenance plan ensures your air conditioner is ready for the heavy lifting it has to do in summer. When well-serviced, your AC experiences fewer effects from wear and tear, which ultimately lengthens its life. 

During AC tune-ups, the expert lubricates all the moving parts of your AC. This way, moving parts run without resistance. This strategy eliminates premature equipment deterioration that calls for new parts and replacements. Your technician also ensures your system has proper coolant levels, clean internal components, and functional motors. These measures ensure your system runs efficiently, for longer.

A maintenance plan helps optimize your system's efficiency through servicing and timely repairs of the faulty AC parts. To sign up for a maintenance plan, reach out to reputable HVAC technicians and learn about the maintenance schedules available.
