Understanding Commercial Boilers and Why Preventative Maintenance is a Must

30 June 2020

Boilers are generally closed vessels that heat the liquid, usually water, for various heating applications or processes like water heating, central heating, boiler-based power generation, cooking, and sanitation. Commercial facilities like office buildings, schools, hospitals, and other similar buildings often utilise commercial boilers for their heating needs and requirements. Principles behind Commercial Boilers A commercial boiler usually uses electricity or burn combustible fuel to heat water, which will be utilised for a building’s heating purposes. The generation of heat inside the commercial boiler will start with the electric coils or burners. The heat exchanger, on the other hand, transfers the […]

The Importance of HVAC Cleaning and Maintenance When Restarting After Covid19 Shutdown

15 June 2020

The COVID-19 pandemic has temporarily ceased the operations of different businesses across the country. The halt in business operations only means that office spaces and various commercial buildings must be closed as well. All systems but security systems are turned off during these times. One of the systems that are affected during the COVID-19 shutdown is the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system. As we all know, this specific system helps in maintaining the optimal temperature of a whole building. It is also maximised to remove harmful contaminants in the air. As various businesses are now allowed to be […]

The 5 Basic Components of an Effective Air Conditioning System

27 May 2020

An effective, fully functional air conditioning system can readily remove warm air and replace it with much cooler air. It is usually a part of a complete system of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning that is also known as HVAC. The ability of an air conditioning system to cool and dehumidify rooms or spaces is important to achieve a comfortable interior environment. Additionally, this cooling capability is vital in maintaining the optimal performance and temperature of heat-producing electronic devices like computer servers and power amplifiers. For it to be effective in cooling or even heating, your air conditioning system must […]

Understanding the Differences Between Air Cooled and Water Cooled Air Conditioning System

12 May 2020

The use of an air conditioning system is important in making our lives comfortable. It enables the removal of heat and moisture from our room or occupied space. This system can also cool and dehumidify rooms filled with heat-producing electronic devices. To date, two of the most popular types of air conditioning systems in both residential and commercial areas are air cooled and water cooled. To better understand them, below are some factors that you may want to consider in choosing between air cooled and water cooled air conditioning systems. Parts and Components Both air cooled and water cooled air […]

What are the Advantages of Building Automation Systems?

28 April 2020

Most commercial, industrial, and institutional buildings have electrical, security, and heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems that supply all their utility and security needs. While these systems are easily manageable, controlling them individually can be quite hassle for the assigned personnel. Fortunately, there is a solution to this staggering problem. Controlling all the systems on a building can now be done with a building automation system (BAS). This system offers enhanced and centralised control of the various systems of a building. To save money, it can automatically monitor and adapt to various elements like time, date, room usage, and environmental […]

Lowering Energy Costs with HVAC Maintenance

08 April 2020

The heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems are extremely important since they can maintain the comfort and safety of the people inside the building. The components found on these systems can effectively control the indoor climate and proper airflow. They can also make sure that the people neither freeze nor sweat due to drastic changes in outside temperature. Maintaining the HVAC system of your building can give you numerous benefits. It can help you improve the system’s overall performance, efficiency, and service life. Any expensive repairs and replacements are also eliminated when you subject your HVAC system under regular […]

Guidelines in Chiller Safety Controls: Things You Need to Know About

27 March 2020

Chillers are essentially a part of the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems that dehumidify and cool an entire building. This system has the sole purpose of creating a comfortable interior environment regardless of the conditions external to the building. The use of chillers may enhance human comfort, but they can still become a hazard if operated in the wrong way. Believe it or not, some people are still unaware of the safety controls and procedures that should be followed when operating and working around the chillers. The Fundamentals of a Chiller System Most cooling systems rely on refrigerants […]

Chiller Services, Annuals, Rebuilds and Replacements: Contact Protector Air Care

13 March 2020

Huge buildings and facilities obtain chillers to perform some important functionality. As an introduction, a chiller is an equipment that removes heat from a liquid through a heat exchanger. Chilled water or liquid are circulated through this heat exchanger, which can be helpful in different applications such as food and beverage, tool and die-cutting, chemicals, lasers, machine tool, semiconductors, and many more. The use of water is very common as a requirement in transferring heat to and from the chiller. A chiller can also use hermetic scroll, semi-hermetic screw, or centrifugal compressor. It can also be water-cooled, air-cooled, or cooled […]

Issues in Cooling Towers Due to Poor Care and Maintenance

28 February 2020

Cooling towers are designed to remove heat from a building. Most of the time, commercial buildings utilise these cooling towers since they can effectively keep a low temperature of the whole building. Industries that maximise the use of cooling towers include power plants, petroleum refineries, and manufacturing facilities. Cooling towers can give various benefits to business owners. They can save you tons of energy and even money since their cooling process doesn’t draw too much power. These towers can also be maintained easily since they don’t leave any harmful residues behind while the cooling process is initiated. By design, cooling […]

How Do Businesses Benefit from of HVAC Retrofits

14 February 2020

Business owners know the importance of HVAC systems to their respective buildings. These systems provide thermal comfort for all occupants of the building. Moreover, they can also significantly improve the indoor air quality and maintain recommended temperatures. After all, HVAC systems ensure a stable working environment and conditions for all employers and employees. Since HVAC systems are comprised of different equipment, it is expected that some of the equipment may encounter problems along the way. And even if some HVAC equipment is still doing fine, there might be a time that they must be replaced according to various factors such […]
