There are several types of commercial HVAC heat pumps that are commonly used in commercial buildings, including air-source heat pumps, water-source heat pumps, and geothermal heat pumps.

Air-source heat pumps use the outside air to heat and cool a building. They work by absorbing heat from the outside air and transferring it into the building during the winter, and releasing heat from the building into the outside air during the summer. These systems are relatively inexpensive to install and maintain, but they may not be as efficient in extreme weather conditions.

Water-source heat pumps use a water loop to transfer heat between the inside and outside of a building. They work by absorbing heat from the water loop and transferring it into the building during the winter, and releasing heat from the building into the water loop during the summer. These systems are more efficient than air-source heat pumps, but they may be more expensive to install and maintain due to the need for a water loop.

Geothermal heat pumps use the ground or a body of water as a heat source or heat sink. They work by absorbing heat from the ground or water during the winter and releasing it into the building, and absorbing heat from the building during the summer and releasing it back into the ground or water. These systems are extremely efficient, but they may be more expensive to install and maintain due to the need for underground piping or a well.

To ensure that your commercial heat pump system is operating efficiently and effectively, it is important to maintain it on a regular basis. This may include tasks such as cleaning and replacing filters, checking refrigerant levels, and inspecting the system for any signs of wear or damage. It is generally recommended to have heat pumps inspected and maintained at least once a year, although more frequent maintenance may be needed depending on the age and condition of the system.

A flushometer is a type of toilet flushing system that uses a mechanical valve to release water from the tank and into the toilet bowl to flush waste. It is commonly found in commercial and public restrooms, as well as in some residential settings.

Flushometers are typically more efficient and reliable than traditional gravity-fed toilet flushing systems, which use a tank to store water and rely on the weight of the water to push waste through the pipes. Flushometers are also more water efficient, as they use a precise amount of water for each flush, rather than the larger volume of water used in a traditional toilet tank.

There are two main types of flushometers: manual and automatic. Manual flushometers are operated by pressing a button or lever, while automatic flushometers are activated by sensors that detect when a user has finished using the toilet.

It is important for commercial HVAC units to have their coils cleaned at least once a year for several reasons. First, dirty coils can reduce the efficiency of the system by making it more difficult for the unit to transfer heat. This can result in higher energy costs and reduced comfort for the building occupants. In addition, dirty coils can cause the unit to work harder than it needs to, which can lead to increased wear and tear and the need for more frequent repairs.

There are several ways to clean the coils on a commercial HVAC unit, including using a brush or a vacuum to remove dirt and debris, and using a coil cleaner to loosen and remove more stubborn deposits. Sometimes high-pressure air or water may be used to blast away dirt and grime.

Here at Century Commercial Service, we offer a range of services for the maintenance and repair of commercial HVAC units, including coil cleaning. Our team of experienced technicians are trained to safely and effectively clean the coils on a variety of HVAC systems, and we have the tools and expertise to get the job done right.

The Electrical Team at Century Commercial Service recently solved a unique challenge for one of our amazing Service Partners. This customer had a monument sign located in a remote area with no existing power source nearby. Being a large Retail Center, the sign was crucial for the tenant’s business but remained un-powered due to the lack of electricity in the area. Slot cutting or boring to bring power to the sign was not an option, but Century Commercial Service was determined to find a solution for the customer and came up with a creative and innovative solution – a custom-designed dedicated solar array to power the monument sign.

The first step was to assess the electrical requirements of the monument sign and determine the necessary components for the solar array. Century Commercial Service’s team of experienced electricians conducted a thorough analysis and determined that a solar panel system, battery, inverter, and a charge controller were necessary.

The next step was to design and build the custom solar array. Century Commercial Service’s team designed and built a solar panel array that was tailored specifically to the electrical requirements of the monument sign. The array was designed to maximize the energy output while being aesthetically pleasing to the customer. The team also took into account the surrounding environment, including wind and weather patterns, to ensure that the solar array was secure and durable.

Once the custom solar array was installed, it was connected to the battery and charge controller to ensure a consistent and reliable source of power for the monument sign. Our Service Partner was thrilled with the results, as the sign is now powered and visible from a great distance.

The installation of the custom solar array by the Electrical Team at Century Commercial Service not only solved the customer’s problem but also served as a unique and innovative solution for a common challenge faced by many Commercial Properties; how to get power to an area where there is no power supply currently. The use of renewable energy sources, such as solar power, not only benefits the environment but also helps businesses save money on energy costs in the long run.

Hydro Jetting is a method of cleaning pipes that involves the use of high-pressure water jets to blast away debris and blockages. It is a powerful and effective way to clear pipes of all types of contaminants, including grease, sludge, sand, and tree roots. Hydro-jetting is often used as a preventive measure to keep pipes in good working order and to prevent future blockages.

One of the main advantages of of this is its versatility. It can be used on a wide range of pipes, including those made of concrete, clay, steel, and PVC. It can also be used on pipes of various sizes, from small residential pipes to large commercial and industrial pipes.

Another advantage is its ability to remove blockages that other methods may not be able to handle. For example, traditional methods like snaking or auguring may not be effective at removing tree roots or large pieces of debris. Hydro-jetting, on the other hand, can easily remove these types of blockages thanks to its high-pressure water jets.

Hydro-Jetting is a safe and environmentally friendly method of cleaning pipes. The high-pressure water jets used in Hydro-jetting are able to remove blockages without damaging the pipes themselves. Additionally, the water used in Hydro-jetting is typically recycled and reused, making it a more sustainable option than other methods that may require the use of harsh chemicals.

To start, a professional plumbing company will first assess the pipes to determine the appropriate amount of pressure and flow rate needed. They will then insert a hose with a specialized nozzle into the pipe. The nozzle is designed to create a powerful jet of water that can blast away blockages and debris.

The process typically takes a few hours to complete, depending on the size and condition of the pipes. Once completed, the pipes should be clear and functioning properly.

Overall, Hydro-Jetting is a highly effective method of cleaning pipes that can save time and money in the long run. It is a safe and environmentally friendly option that can help prevent future blockages and keep pipes in good working order.

Century Commercial Service offers several Hydro-Jetting options on either a schedule Proactive Service Maintenance Program or on an On-Call or Emergency basis.

Contact Us

A commercial rooftop package unit (RTU) is a type of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system that is typically installed on the roof of a commercial building. These units are designed to provide comfortable indoor temperatures and good air quality for the occupants of the building. RTUs come in a variety of sizes to accommodate different types and sizes of buildings, and they can be used for both heating and cooling applications.

One of the main advantages of RTUs is that they can be easily installed on the roof of a building, which frees up valuable floor space that can be used for other purposes. They are also relatively easy to maintain, as all of the components are contained within a single, self-contained unit. However, it is still important to maintain RTUs on a regular basis to ensure that they are functioning properly and efficiently.

Preventative scheduled maintenance is important for RTUs because it can help to identify and fix potential problems before they become major issues. This can save you time and money in the long run, as the cost of repairs and downtime can be significantly reduced. Regular maintenance can also help to increase the lifespan of your RTU and improve its energy efficiency, which can save you money on your energy bills.

Here at Century Commercial Service, we offer a range of solutions for the maintenance and repair of commercial RTUs.

Commercial Leak Detection

Underground leak detection is the process of identifying and locating leaks in underground pipes, whether they are carrying water, gas, or other substances. These leaks can be difficult to detect because they are not visible, and they can cause damage to surrounding soil, vegetation, and structures. Below are some common methods used for underground leak detection:

  1. Acoustic leak detection: This method involves using specialized sensors or equipment to listen for the sound of a leak. These sounds can be very faint, so the sensors may need to be placed very close to the pipe to detect them.
  2. Pressure testing: This method involves pressurizing the pipe and measuring the pressure at various points along its length. If there is a leak, the pressure will drop, indicating the location of the leak.
  3. Infrared imaging: This method involves using thermal imaging cameras to detect changes in temperature caused by a leak. The camera can detect these temperature changes even if the leak is small or well-hidden.
  4. Tracer gas testing: This method involves introducing a gas that is detectable by specialized equipment into the pipe. If there is a leak, the gas will escape and be detected by the equipment, indicating the location of the leak.
  5. Ground-penetrating radar: This method involves using radar technology to create a detailed map of the underground area surrounding the pipe. This map can help to identify any areas where the soil has been disturbed, which could indicate the presence of a leak.

It is important to use the appropriate method for the specific type of pipe and substance being carried, as well as the specific conditions of the leak. For example, some methods may not be effective for detecting leaks in pipes that are very deep underground, or for identifying small or slow leaks.

Daylight harvesting is a technique that involves using sensors and controls to adjust the amount of artificial light used in a building based on the amount of natural light available. This can be used in commercial applications to save energy and reduce lighting costs.

There are several types of sensors that can be used for daylight harvesting in commercial buildings. One type is a photosensor, which measures the amount of light in an area and sends a signal to the lighting control system to turn on or off the artificial lights as needed. Another type is a lux sensor, which measures the amount of light on a surface, such as a desk or floor, and can be used to control the lights in a specific area.

In addition to sensors, daylight harvesting systems also typically include controls, such as dimming controls or occupancy sensors, which can turn off the lights when an area is not in use. These controls can be programmed to take into account factors such as the time of day, the position of the sun, and the weather.

There are several benefits to using daylight harvesting in commercial buildings. In addition to energy savings, daylight harvesting can improve the quality of light in a space and increase occupant comfort by providing a more natural light source. It can also reduce the need for maintenance and replacement of lighting fixtures, as the artificial lights will not need to be used as frequently.

Overall, daylight harvesting is a simple and effective way to save energy and reduce lighting costs in commercial buildings. By using sensors and controls to adjust the amount of artificial light used based on the amount of natural light available, businesses can save energy and improve the quality of light in their spaces.

Century Commercial Service is dedicated to offering tailored lighting solutions for your commercial property requirements. With our team of skilled technicians, you can rest assured that your property’s lighting control system is in capable hands.
