But it\u2019s even more vital for commercial spaces, no matter what size they are or what their function is. Efficient heating, and air conditioning manages the comfort of your customers, employees, clients, and\/or tenants and guests. Plus, it is often vital in protecting equipment from overheating. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While in a residential space you have to worry about the\ncomfort of a few individuals, in a business setting there is a much bigger\nresponsibility. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are business owners too\u2014we get that you\u2019re busy and have plenty to deal with day-to-day. Scheduling a service you don\u2019t see an immediate need for can seem unreasonable, maybe even a waste of your time or money. We definitely encourage you to reconsider this concept though, since maintenance tune-ups are about <em>preventing <\/em>problems so you never have to deal with unpleasant surprises like this! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>What\u2019s Involved in Commercial HVAC Maintenance?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>These types of service appointments generally take around\n1-2 hours for each unit, though this can vary depending on the type of business\nand the type of system you have. Business and commercial space owners will have\nminimum disruption if they\u2019re using rooftop units. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During your commercial maintenance appointment, our\ntechnicians will thoroughly clean and adjust the inside of your system, and\ncomprehensively inspect it for any pending or potential future problems. This inspection\nincludes a number of important steps, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Making sure the air filters aren\u2019t clogged and\ndisrupting airflow. <\/li><li>Lubricating all the moving parts to make sure\nthey\u2019re functioning properly. <\/li><li>Doing a safety check of all electrical and gas\nline components. <\/li><li>Tightening the electrical connections and\nchecking on the refrigerant charge in the case of a heat pump system or\ncommercial central air conditioner. <\/li><li>Checking your rooftop units for any signs of wear\nor corrosion. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If our technicians come across a problem with your\ncommercial HVAC system that needs repair to fend off a worsening problem, we\u2019ll\nlet you know right away so that you can schedule for appropriate repairs at a\ntime that works for your business\u2019s schedule. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And remember, when you are alerted to repair needs, the best\ntime to take care of them is as soon as you can! Ignoring a small repair need\ncan allow it time to have a domino effect in the system, causing other components\nto wear or break down. Ultimately, you could end up with an entire system\nfailure. This can be prevented though, with diligent maintenance and repairs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>At <a href=\"\/contact\/send-a-message\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Hometown Heating and Air Conditioning (opens in a new tab)\">Hometown Heating and Air Conditioning<\/a>, \u201cYour Comfort Is Our Business!\u201d Let us handle <em>your <\/em>business needs with <a href=\"\/service-areas\/pleasanton-ac-heating\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"commercial HVAC service in Pleasanton, CA (opens in a new tab)\">commercial HVAC service in Pleasanton, CA<\/a>.
