As the ‘dog days’ of summer approach and temperatures soar during extreme heatwaves, maintaining a comfortable indoor environment for your tenants is essential. Your HVAC system is your tenants’ best defense against the sweltering heat, but the increased demand during this season can significantly strain its components.
Without proper maintenance, your buildings’ HVAC system might not only fail to keep your building cool but could also break down when your tenants need it the most. Don’t risk discomfort, health hazards, upset tenants and costly emergency repairs!
During a heatwave, your buildings’ HVAC system is under increased stress to create a comfortable environment, so it is important to recognize signs that your system may be overworked. A good example of this is unusual noises, such as banging, clanking, or buzzing, which could mean your buildings’ system has some parts coming loose or unbalanced.
Reduced airflow is another common indicator of a problem. If the airflow is weaker than usual, it could be a sign of a clogged filter or ductwork issue. Plus, if some rooms are significantly cooler or warmer than others, this may mean there is an issue with your system's balance. Addressing these problems promptly can prevent more significant issues and help you get your system back on track for optimal efficiency.
Maintaining your HVAC system during an extreme heatwave is essential for comfort and efficiency. Contact BCS Service Pros today for proactive maintenance services that can prevent unexpected breakdowns and costly repairs, keeping your building comfortable & cool all summer long.
