While it may cost a few more pennies initially, properly maintaining a rooftop unit will help ensure the device continues to provide peak performance, saving a consumer a collection of pennies in the long run. What could you be doing for your customer?
Over the last few decades, rooftop units have moved ahead with numerous technological advances. Both light (3- to 25-ton units) and large commercial packaged rooftop systems (25 tons and up) have matured in style and substance, now offering cleaner air, lower operating costs, more efficient performance, and more.
Boasting better efficiency, cleaner air, stronger structures, and more, the industry’s newest rooftop units (RTUs) and air handling units (AHUs) offer numerous benefits for both commercial and residential facilities.
U.S. commercial building owners could save an average of 38 percent on their heating and cooling bills if they installed a handful of controls to make their HVAC systems more energy efficient, according to a recent report.
It’s time again for the annual Commercial Cooling Showcase. The NEWS’ annual issues have traditionally introduced the latest air conditioning units available for the upcoming summer season. The intent is to help contractors prepare for this busy period by doing the research that will help them to distinguish between brands.
The light commercial WeatherMaker® Series rooftops unit sizes have been expanded up to 27.5 tons. With an AHRI-certified rating of up to 10.4 EER, the new WeatherMaker® 48/50TC unit offers highly efficient indoor fan motors and handled access doors.
New technology in the HVAC industry stretches past equipment breakthroughs and component enhancements. Ancillary software and communication elements are often keys to making advanced heating and cooling solutions run correctly.
Every year The NEWS introduces the latest heating equipment available for the upcoming winter season. This Heating Showcase issue covers the commercial market.
One thing that contractors can agree on is ease of installation and servicing makes their work life better and simpler. That’s something that the winners of the 2011 Dealer Design Awards in the Light Commercial category have in common.
