DEFECTIVE BUILDING PERFORMANCE: If the HVAC system in your new construction or aging building is defective, here are five trends most people experience:
1) Lack of temperature control – temperature keeps rising?
2) Strange noises – hearing erratic sounds, clanging, or rattling?
3) Lack of ventilation – air feeling stagnant?
4) Temperature keeps rising – thermostat issues?
5) Varying temperatures in different spaces – while this could be due to drafts coming in from windows (and may be par for the course in an older buildings), such problems are unexpected in new constructions. A defect in the system could be preventing it from heating and cooling properly, and it should be examined immediately—not only because of issues with discomfort due to irregular temperature control, but also because efficiency may be affected.
We see these issues regularly in the commercial, industrial, and healthcare facilities that partner with us at Total Comfort Solutions. Our clients value uptime and reliability.
