Ensuring comfort in places where people spend most of their time is always critical. Aside from your home, the office should maintain excellent airflow to keep everyone working productively with ease. While HVAC issues can be inevitable, prioritizing maintenance is the best thing to do. Here’s how to improve your airflow.
- Check for ventilation blockages. If you notice hotspots and cold spots in your office, employees may suffer from the backup of conditioning vents. What you can do is ensure that all ducts and registers are open and unobstructed by furniture to improve airflow.
- Clean the condenser coil. The unit’s condenser coil aims to remove the heat extracted from the air by dissipating it out of the building. It will not work if the shaft is covered with dirt or debris. Heat transfer is impeded, and as a result, the device has to work harder to do its job. This can easily lead to airflow issues, system failures and even significant increases in billing.
- Check the unit size. Prevent constant cooling and heating repair by purchasing a unit that is just right. An oversized unit may cycle on and off continuously, never running long enough to remove humidity from the air and making the space feel stuffy and uncomfortable.
- Replace the filter regularly. The air conditioner filter removes dust and dirt from the air and prevents damage to the device. And with a clogged filter, fresh air won’t enter the system. If this is neglected, it can lead to significant airflow problems and air blockages. If you are not sure when or how to change the air filters in your HVAC system, call a professional.
