Air conditioning is used to manage (or condition) the air in a given space. This may mean heating, dehumidifying or, cooling air. Commercial air conditioning is a system that is used in any commercial property.

HVAC stands for heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems. This system is responsible for heating and cooling your home and includes products like furnaces, air conditioners, heat pumps as well as ductwork, thermostats and other home comfort controls.

Commercial HVAC systems in buildings contain interconnected systems that provide heating, ventilation, and cooling to individual floors or other areas within the structure. Commercial HVAC systems usually include heat pumps that extract heat from the air or water for heating purposes.

The first major difference is the size. Residential HVAC units are much smaller compared to commercial systems. Commercial HVAC systems are larger because they are generally employed to cool much larger spaces. Spaces like warehouses, department stores, and even medium-size businesses benefit from these larger systems.

5 HVAC Maintenance Steps To Complete Every Quarter

• Change Your Filters. No matter your filter type, the fact is this: A regular changing of your filter is essential to effective HVAC performance.
• Check for Debris.
• Clean Coils.
• Clean Blowers.
• Do Your Duct Research.

The 6 Most Important Parts of Your HVAC System

• Heat Exchanger.
• Blower Motor.
• Combustion Chamber.
• Condenser Coil or Compressor.
• Evaporator Coil.
• Thermostat.

The key parts of the commercial HVAC system include:

• Air Conditioner. The air conditioner in a commercial HVAC system is very similar to a residential unit.
• Compressor.
• Condenser.
• Thermal Expansion Valve.
• Air Handler (including Evaporator Coil and Blower)
• Terminal Units.
• Chiller.
• Duct System.

All three types of commercial HVAC systems can benefit almost any commercial property type including office spaces, distribution facilities, schools, storage facilities and hotels. The three types of systems include: single-split, multi-split and VRF or VRV. Keep reading to learn more about each.

Cassette-type air conditioning: Since they are frequently installed as ceiling-mounted units, a baffle shield or a typical suspended ceiling might be used to conceal them. When space is at a premium yet a high-performance conditioning system is needed, cassette air conditioning systems are the best option.

What are the Different Types of Air Conditioning Systems? While there are a whole host of variations and slightly different versions out there, AC systems generally fall under three main categories – Single Split Systems, Multi Split Systems and VRF/VRV Systems.

The 4 Main Refrigeration Cycle Components

• The compressor.
• The condenser.
• The expansion device.
• The evaporator.

Some of the most important parts of your HVAC system are your heat exchanger, blower motor, combustion chamber, condenser, evaporator, and thermostat.

• Heat Exchanger.
• Blower Motor.
• Combustion Chamber.
• Condenser Coil or Compressor.
• Evaporator Coil.
• Thermostat.
