Avoid Water Damage and Save Money at Your Tolland Business by Maintaining Your HVAC Systems

6/1/2021 (Permalink)

A commercial HVAC system—which heats, cools, humidifies/dehumidifies, filters and circulates the air throughout your facility in Tolland—is easy to forget about when it’s working as it should. However, a system that leaks or allows too much humidity can create water or mold damage in your building.

Even a system that’s performing adequately can lose efficiency over time, costing you extra money in energy expenses. In fact, HVAC systems, combined with your lighting, are the biggest energy consumers in the average commercial building.

That’s why it’s important that you regularly maintain your HVAC system. With a little routine preventive service, your HVAC will be more efficient and will last longer. It’ll also be less likely to break down or leak—and that can save you lots of time, money and hassle.

Schedule Preventive HVAC Maintenance Twice a Year

Get into a routine of scheduling preventive HVAC maintenance in the spring for cooling systems and in the fall for heating systems. The idea is to tune up the systems to run efficiently throughout the subsequent heating or cooling season.

Choose a commercial HVAC professional such as SERVPRO of Manchester/Mansfield to perform preventive maintenance. If the HVAC pro discovers that repairs are necessary, it can be done immediately without losing any time.

During the maintenance visit, the professional should inspect, clean, lubricate, adjust or replace (if necessary) these parts of the HVAC system:

Outdoor

  • Coil and cabinet
  • Drain pans and condensate lines
  • Compressor
  • Fan motor and blades
  • Control box, switches, wiring and safety controls
  • Refrigerant

Indoor

  • Blower assembly and housing
  • Evaporator coil, drip pan and condensate lines
  • Belts
  • Burner assembly
  • Ignition system
  • Safety controls
  • Heat exchanger
  • Flue system
  • Control box, wiring and connections
  • Air filter
  • Duct system

Check Your HVAC System Throughout the Year

In addition to the twice-a-year maintenance visits, you or your maintenance staff should keep an eye on your HVAC system at more frequent intervals throughout the year.

Air Filters

Using clean, high-efficiency, pleated air HVAC filters can lower energy consumption by up to 15%.

  • At least once a month: inspect the air filters to be sure they are not clogged.
  • Every three to six months: replace the air filters.

Programmable Thermostats

  • At the start of the heating and cooling seasons: check and adjust the settings if necessary.
  • Every month: check to be sure that the thermostat is working well.
