Commercial HVAC is responsible for providing businesses with cool, clean, and comfortable indoor air. With such a critical role, it is vital to make sure that your commercial HVAC systems are always running at optimal performance. A properly maintained and performing HVAC system will allow your business to run smoothly and comfortably. Here are five things you should do and shouldn’t do for your commercial refrigeration maintenance needs.
Do This
- Replace HVAC filters quarterly. (Monthly for medical and pet care facilities).
- Write the date on the HVAC filter when replacing it to ensure it is changed in a timely manner.
- Check and remove any debris from the drain line when servicing.
- Ensure that the fan motor is operating properly and isn’t causing any excessive noise.
- Have preventative maintenance services performed quarterly.
Don’t Do This
- Leave items/tools in the HVAC unit during servicing.
- Wait for equipment breakdown to replace equipment.
- Use high-rated MERV filters on older HVAC systems.
- Skip quarterly maintenance services. This can cause the HVAC equipment to deteriorate and wear out much quicker than a properly serviced HVAC system.
- Attempt to fix or inspect an HVAC system if you are not a trained and certified HVAC/R professional.
Following these guidelines will ensure that your HVAC systems are being properly maintained and help you avoid costly mistakes.
