Green Commercial Interior Heating – Minneapolis St. Paul, MN
Environmental concerns are not just an outside issue. For commercial buildings, the interior environment of a building also has a large impact on building profitability and desirability. From office buildings and public buildings to workshops, warehouses and shipping centers, the interior environment makes a difference you can see on your bottom line. Your HVAC system is key to maintaining a comfortable environment that attracts tenants and customers, and promotes productivity for occupants. Today’s HVAC equipment makes controlling interior conditions easier than ever.
Some of the factors that influence the quality of a building’s interior environment are:
- Temperature Control – People have a very narrow comfort range when it comes to temperature. We feel and work our best in that narrow range. Maintaining comfortable temperatures in occupied areas of your commercial building is a main function of your HVAC system. This control includes managing temperatures in every zone of a building, so that there are no hot or chilly areas. Modern HVAC systems make control easier than ever, with multiple zone controls and unit heating and cooling. Controls and monitoring can now be done from a single location in most systems. One size can’t fit all when it comes to temperature control in most buildings.
- Humidity Control – Controlling humidity in building interiors is also a serious concern. In Minnesota, with its cold, dry winters, and hot, humid summers, presents a challenge to any HVAC system. Today, humidity control is much easier, with new state-of-the-art sensors, controls, and equipment.
- Ventilation – Stale, stagnant air is a comfort killer. Every occupied building needs a constant circulation of fresh air to remain comfortable for occupants. In some cases, make up air must be supplied to insure adequate air in the building. Every HVAC system decision must take proper ventilation into consideration.
- Air Quality – In too many buildings, interior air quality is an afterthought. Keeping dust, mold spores, odors and other contaminants out of your buildings air is an important concern. Today’s air filtration and purification systems are far superior to older technology, and are part of an overall HVAC system. Regular filter changes and cleaning of air ducts is another ongoing need. Bad air quality leads to poor productivity, discomfort, and even illness in buildings.
A Quality Interior Environment Means Profitability
In the current economic climate, building occupancy rates are down across the board. Competing for tenants and keeping your current tenants happy means paying special attention to the environmental quality inside any building, from motels and office buildings to apartments and even workshops and warehouses. Old, tired, or balky HVAC systems just don’t make the cut when it comes to attracting occupants, customers, and clients. In a competitive commercial property market, poor interior comfort conditions can put you out of the market, while a modern, efficient, comfortable HVAC system can be a real incentive for potential tenants.
