Frequently Asked Questions About Commercial HVAC Services
What is the difference between commercial and residential HVAC systems?
There are several key differences between a residential and commercial HVAC system. The first and most obvious difference is size. Since they control temperatures in much larger spaces, commercial HVAC systems are much bigger than residential systems. That’s one reason they’re usually installed on roofs, as opposed to residential systems, which are generally placed on a building’s side.
Due to their larger size, commercial HVAC systems are more powerful than residential HVAC systems. They also feature more complex equipment than residential systems, which makes them more difficult to service and install.

Understanding the Different Types of Commercial HVAC Systems
Single-split HVAC Systems
Single-split HVAC systems feature two primary components — an evaporator and a compressor. The evaporator is installed inside the building, while the compressor and condenser are placed outside the building. Copper pipes are then used to connect the two units, making the system functional.
Single-split HVAC systems are typically smaller and less expensive than multi-split systems, making them a good choice for commercial properties that don’t have a lot of space to heat and cool.
Multi-split HVAC Systems
Multi-split HVAC systems feature a single outdoor compressor unit that connects to two or more indoor air outlets. Each of the air outlets can be controlled separately, giving you advanced control over your HVAC system.
Since they allow for different climate zones throughout your building, multi-split systems make the most sense for larger commercial properties that have multiple rooms to heat and cool.
Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) HVAC Systems
Variable refrigerant flow, or VRF, HVAC systems are a more powerful and complex solution than single- and mini-split systems. They feature an outdoor unit that connects to several indoor units, and allow you to heat and cool different areas of your building simultaneously. This improves the system’s overall efficiency and helps to reduce unnecessary energy consumption.
Though they tend to cost more up front, VRF systems are a great option for commercial properties that routinely need different parts of their building to be at different temperatures. Additionally, VRF systems use a modular design, meaning it’s easy to continue expanding your system and adding additional indoor units.

Frequently Asked Questions About Commercial HVAC Installations
How do you size an HVAC system for a commercial property?
It’s important to determine the proper size for your HVAC system before making your investment. Our team of HVAC installation professionals can also assist you with determining the ideal size and type of HVAC system for your specific property.
How can I tell when my commercial HVAC system needs to be replaced?
The following are signs that your commercial HVAC system is in need of repairs or replacement:
Your utility bills are higher than usual. If your utility bills are costing you more than usual, it’s likely because your HVAC system is experiencing issues and operating inefficiently.
Your system is old or outdated. HVAC systems are generally considered to be at the end of their lifespan at about 15 years. At this point, the technology begins to become outdated and efficiency is often hampered.
The temperature in your building is inconsistent. If your commercial HVAC system is struggling to keep your building at a consistent temperature, it may be time to look into a replacement.
Your system is making odd noises or producing odors. Strange noises or odors coming from your equipment are both telltale signs that your commercial HVAC system is in need of replacement.
The humidity levels in your building are increasing. Higher levels of humidity in your building may indicate issues with your HVAC system that require a system replacement.
What are the benefits of installing a new HVAC system in my business?
There are many reasons to install a new HVAC system in your commercial property, such as:
Improved energy efficiency. Newer commercial HVAC systems are designed to operate more efficiently than older, traditional models.
Reduced energy expenses. Since new HVAC systems are more energy-efficient, they can help you save money on your energy bills. You can also compare commercial energy supply rates to potentially increase your cost savings.
Reliable system performance. A newly installed HVAC system will offer reliable performance and be less prone to breaking down or experiencing issues.
Better air quality. The ventilating and filtering capabilities of newer HVAC models allow them to provide improved air quality.
Enhanced controls and capabilities. Newer models are often equipped with improved controls and smart features, granting you additional control over your HVAC system.
