Your commercial HVAC system is the unsung hero of your team. Keeping everyone comfortable and your products in a favorable environment is essential for seamless operations. Many companies seem to think that HVAC systems will last forever – until a sudden breakdown causes havoc with their business. Preventive Maintenance can spot minor issues before they become significant problems and keep your system operating optimally.
As the hot Georgia summer draws to a close and the weather begins to cool down, it’s essential to start thinking about getting your commercial HVAC system ready for fall. Ensuring that your heating system is in good working order will not only keep you and your employees comfortable during the colder months but also help you save money on energy bills and prevent costly repairs down the line.
Here are some steps you can take to get your commercial HVAC system ready for fall.
Schedule a Maintenance Check
It’s a good idea to schedule a professional maintenance check for your HVAC system before the fall season starts. A qualified technician from Aeras Building Solutions in Atlanta can inspect your system for any issues, clean your ducts and filters, and make any necessary repairs or adjustments.

Replace Air Filters
This is an often-overlooked step of routine maintenance your team can perform. Air filters can become clogged with dirt and debris over time, reducing your HVAC system’s efficiency. Replace your air filters regularly to keep your system running smoothly. Aeras Building Solutions can help supply you with the proper size and quality filters regardless of your commercial HVAC system.
Check Thermostat Settings
Your commercial building’s thermostats can be abused if not appropriately monitored. Some team members may like it warmer, and some cooler – and the raging battle keeps your HVAC working overtime and keeping no one comfortable. Ensure your thermostat is set to the appropriate temperature for fall, and keep them secured so only authorized personnel can access it. You may need to adjust your settings for cooler weather, especially if your building gets chilly.
Clean Outdoor Units
If you have outdoor HVAC units, make sure to clear away any debris or leaves that may have accumulated around the unit. This can help prevent damage and ensure your system runs at peak efficiency. This is often overlooked if your units are mounted in difficult locations like the building’s roof.
Consider Upgrading
If your HVAC system is old or outdated, you may want to consider upgrading to a newer, more energy-efficient system. This can help you save money on energy bills in the long run and improve the overall comfort of your building. Aeras Building Solutions can help you choose and install the best solution quickly and efficiently.
Don’t wait until the last minute to prepare your system – schedule a maintenance check and make necessary adjustments as soon as possible. Your employees and customers will thank you for it!
