Industrial Heating 101: What You Need to Know
No matter the shape or size of your business, your success will depend on your ability to maintain safe, comfortable, and functional temperatures at your commercial site. This is where industrial heating comes in. Industrial heating systems such as commercial HVACs are specifically designed for more intensive use than home HVAC systems.
They are an essential part of your operating costs and knowing the right types of heating systems and how to keep them running smoothly is essential for you, your customers, and your bottom line.
With that in mind, here are the essentials you need to know about industrial heating systems for your business.
Types of Industrial Heating Systems
It’s worth noting that there are several different types of heating and cooling systems that you can use for your commercial property.
The right one for you will depend on your type of property and the needs of your business. One of the most common heating systems is called a “warm air” system. With this, fans are used to draw air across a heat exchanger. This is highly effective for distributing warm air across a large space with very little machinery involved.
There are also destratification, radiant, and air rotation heating systems. Make sure to do your research to find the central heating system that works for your business.
Keeping Your Industrial Heating in Good Shape
Once you have chosen your heating system, you’ll want to make sure it stays in working order. Remember, a broken HVAC system can result in costly downtime for your company. There is also the risk of reputational costs if your customers or products suffer as a result. Luckily, most routine maintenance is straightforward and only takes a couple of minutes.
Changing the air filter on a regular basis will go a long way toward expanding the lifespan of your commercial HVAC system. Meanwhile, regular coil inspections will help you keep on top of dust or debris inside the HVAC before it becomes a problem.
When You Need to Call a Professional
Even the most diligent business owners will experience problems with their industrial heating systems from time to time.
This will require you to call in a professional who can address the problem quickly before it affects your bottom line. If you are experiencing leaky ducts, you should always call a professional. This will ensure the problem is fixed the first time around.
A professional can also help you replace an outdated system and improve your energy STAR rating, which will help drive down costs well into the future. In addition, we recommend that all business owners arrange a professional inspection and preventative maintenance visit at least once a year. This will help keep operations running smoothly.
