Maintaining the proper condition of your company’s heating and air-conditioning unit is nothing to laugh about. It is also something you cannot leave to chance. Properly maintained systems will help to reduce costs, downtime and ensure the comfort of your workers. When you are looking for a commercial HVAC service, it is crucial that you only hire professionals that have a good track record and a complete understanding of your particular system.
1. Do some homework
Find out about any license, insurance and bonding requirements for your region, and before you contact any contractors know the specifics of your system and any maintenance history it may have. This helps the contractor to better understand your heating and cooling needs.
2. Referrals
Ask other building and facility colleagues if they can recommend anyone. You should be better off doing this, as it will save you time and money contacting other company’s.
3. References
Ask contractors for references from previous customers and make sure to contact each one. A commercial HVAC service should have a list of clients it can give you.
4. Written estimates
The contractor should take time to conduct a thorough analysis of your system, assess your needs and put a good faith estimate in writing. (Star Service provides estimates free of charge.)
