About This Service
When it comes to maintaining a commercial property, drainage systems are often overlooked until problems arise. Above ground drainage systems play a crucial role in ensuring your building remains free from water damage and structural issues. Proper installation and regular maintenance are essential to keeping these systems efficient and effective.
You might think drainage is a minor detail, but neglecting it can lead to significant and costly problems. From blocked pipes to waterlogged foundations, the risks are too high to ignore. By understanding the basics of commercial above ground drainage installation and maintenance, you can protect your property and ensure its longevity.
How These Systems Work
HEATING SERVICES
Most commercial heating systems use boilers to generate heat, which radiators then distribute. Boilers can run on various fuels, including natural gas, oil, and electricity. Key components include heat exchangers, pumps, and control systems, which regulate temperature and improve operational efficiency.
CHILLED WATER SYSTEMS
Chilled water systems employ chillers to remove heat from the building, cooling the water circulated through air handlers and fan coil units. Essential parts comprise evaporators, condensers, compressors, and expansion valves. These elements work together to absorb and reject heat, maintaining desired indoor temperatures.
Maintaining Your System
REGULAR MAINTENANCE
Scheduled maintenance ensures commercial heating and chilled water systems operate efficiently and extends their lifespan. Maintenance tasks include inspecting boilers and chillers, cleaning air filters, checking refrigerant levels, and verifying system controls. Regular upkeep prevents breakdowns and reduces repair costs.
SYSTEM UPGRADES
Upgrading to modern systems or components can significantly improve performance and efficiency. Consider integrating advanced control systems, high‑efficiency boilers, and variable‑speed pumps. Modernising these elements reduces energy consumption and operational expenses, leading to long‑term savings
