Summer HVAC Tips for Commercial Buildings

When the summer heat hits, a well-functioning HVAC system is critical for maintaining comfort and productivity in your commercial space. Whether you’re running a busy office, retail store, or industrial facility, your HVAC system works harder in the summer months — and without proper maintenance, that extra workload can lead to breakdowns, higher energy bills, and uncomfortable indoor temperatures. Below are some essential summer HVAC tips for commercial buildings — and why businesses across the region trust Level One HVAC to keep their systems running at peak performance

1. Schedule Preventive Maintenance

Your HVAC system should be inspected and tuned up before the summer heat reaches its peak. Preventive maintenance helps identify small issues before they become big (and expensive) problems. During a maintenance visit, a technician will check refrigerant levels, clean coils, inspect ductwork, and test the thermostat for accuracy. Below are our favorite

2. Change Air Filters Regularly

Clogged filters restrict airflow, forcing your system to work harder — and use more energy. Replace filters every 1–3 months, depending on usage and your environment (especially if you’re in a dusty or high-traffic area).

3. Upgrade to Smart Thermostats

Smart or programmable thermostats allow you to automate temperature settings based on occupancy and time of day, saving energy without sacrificing comfort. Many systems can be managed remotely, giving facility managers full control even off-site.

4. Seal & Insulate

Leaks in ductwork or poor insulation can lead to significant energy loss. Sealing and insulating your HVAC system ensures that cool air stays where it’s supposed to — inside your building.

5. Check for Odd Noises or Odors

Unusual sounds or smells coming from your HVAC system could indicate mechanical issues or mold. Don’t ignore them — catching problems early is key.
