Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems play a vital role in regulating indoor air quality for offices, commercial spaces and industrial environments. A well-operating HVAC system not only maintains a comfortable temperature but also circulates clean air, free from harmful pollutants and microorganisms. Teoma’s commercial air conditioning maintenance services not only ensure compliance with workplace health and safety standards but also contribute to increased productivity, reduced energy and repair costs, improved energy efficiency and protection against airborne diseases.
Why it’s important to regularly service your commercial HVAC system
Spread of illness and disease
Indoor air quality directly affects the health of occupants. When air quality is poor, it can lead to symptoms such as dizziness and respiratory difficulties, especially for individuals with underlying conditions like asthma. Long-term exposure to pollutants in under-maintained HVAC systems can pose serious health risks. Bacteria such as legionella can thrive in water cooling towers connected to HVAC systems, while contaminants like mould and mildew may contribute to serious respiratory diseases. Regular HVAC maintenance is essential to safeguard the health of both workers and the business environment.
Energy Efficiency
A key benefit of regular servicing of commercial HVAC systems is reduced energy bills. A well-maintained system operates at peak efficiency, with clean filters and coils ensuring smooth airflow and lower energy consumption. Energy efficiency is further enhanced as well-maintained systems do not have to work as hard to maintain the desired temperature. Routine checks identify and address minor issues before they escalate, preventing increased energy consumption due to system malfunctions. Investing in HVAC maintenance leads to long-term savings on energy bills, contributing to both financial savings and environmental sustainability.
