When your HVAC system in your business, commercial building, or multi-family residential building fails, people will get uncomfortable quickly. Your tenants will become upset, your customers and employees will become uncomfortable, and you may have some unhappy folks on your hands. You need a team that can respond right away, and service those HVAC problems to get things back to normal.

You know the old saying, “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure?” Here at South Coast Facility Services, we take that to heart. We have seen over the years that regular maintenance visits can help to prolong the life and extend the efficiency of mechanical systems in commercial buildings, industrial plants, and multi-tenant complexes. Scheduling regular maintenance means you get a skilled technician on site who can test your system, evaluate components, and identify potential issues before they occur.

HVAC systems age and lose efficiency, even if you have thoroughly maintained it through the years. Parts wear and deteriorate, cracks begin to appear, and your tenants and renters may begin to notice problems. A retro-fit, the replacement of an HVAC system and equipment on an existing commercial building, requires superior skill and experience to ensure the proper new equipment in installed in conjunction with existing system components.

The mechanical division of South Coast Facility Services believes in making sure your HVAC is ready to go from day one. This means having the know-how to manage the most demanding new construction and installation projects. You can expect careful planning, real-time estimates, complete project management, cost efficiency, and critical quality assurance measures from our team. New construction projects are from the bottom up, where we take plans developed by your design team and install the new mechanical systems for your building.

The duct work in your HVAC system is like the veins and arteries in your body, with your central mechanical unit being your heart. With your veins, if they are too big or too small, it doesn’t matter how well the heart works, the blood won’t flow like it should. The same goes for your duct work – having the correct duct work, having it cleaned and in good shape, allows your HVAC system to perform as expected.

The nitty gritty of your building’s HVAC and mechanical system, the piping is something that is not often noticed but is absolutely necessary. Duct work, control units – that’s what everyone sees. But it’s the piping that helps to circulate the fluids and refrigerants necessary to heat and cool the system. You can’t skimp on piping and expect your system to perform up to par. Piping will be needed to carry products and byproducts of your HVAC system, including steam, chilled water, and hot water.

HVAC controls form the brain and nerves of your HVAC system. By monitoring interior conditions and responding to load changes in a coordinated fashion, the controls provide comfort as well as energy efficiency. This helps to make sure that your system is running as efficiently as possible, and it is critical to the operational costs of your building.

Design-build commercial HVAC construction projects utilize the decades of engineering experience boasted by the SCFS team. From initial design through the entire construction process, South Coast is responsible for everything. This allows for a streamlined process that expedites the project, while also providing you the customer with rock solid construction plans.
