Reviving Comfort: How We Transformed a Broken Rooftop HVAC System
At AirGreen, we pride ourselves on being Montréal’s trusted experts in commercial HVAC services. Our recent project—a YORK Rooftop Unit repair—demonstrates our commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction. This isn’t just about fixing machines; it’s about restoring comfort, enhancing efficiency, and ensuring long-term reliability. Let us take you through the fascinating story of how we tackled a challenging repair and brought life back to a rooftop unit.
The Problem: A Rooftop Unit in Despair
Nestled atop a bustling commercial property in Montréal, the YORK rooftop HVAC system was struggling. The customer reported inconsistent cooling, strange noises, and a complete shutdown during peak hours—an absolute nightmare for any business. Upon inspection, we found a host of issues:
- Burnt wiring: Likely caused by overheating and lack of regular maintenance.
- Faulty compressors: These critical components had given up after years of hard work.
- Clogged drainage system: Water pooling within the unit was creating inefficiencies and potential damage.
- Wear on electrical controls: The unit’s brain was no longer functioning optimally.
With such a list of problems, most contractors would suggest a replacement. But at AirGreen, we see challenges as opportunities to showcase our expertise.
Our Diagnosis: Leaving No Stone Unturned
Our skilled technicians approached the repair systematically. Armed with specialized tools and extensive knowledge, we performed a thorough diagnosis. We believe that understanding the root cause is key to delivering long-lasting solutions. Here’s how we proceeded:
- Thermal imaging diagnostics: Identifying hotspots to pinpoint overheating areas.
- Electrical testing: Verifying the integrity of circuits and identifying short circuits.
- Component assessment: Examining the compressors, capacitors, and fan motors for operational issues.
- Airflow evaluation: Ensuring proper ventilation within the system.
This meticulous approach allowed us to identify not only the visible problems but also underlying issues that could lead to future breakdowns.
The Solution: A Combination of Expertise and Precision
Repairing a commercial rooftop unit requires more than just replacing parts. It’s about ensuring the entire system operates cohesively. Here’s what we did to restore this YORK unit:
1. Electrical Overhaul
We replaced all damaged wiring and upgraded the electrical controls to a more robust system. This ensured that the unit’s operations would be smooth and safe for years to come.
2. Compressor Replacement
Two new compressors were installed to reinstate the unit’s cooling capabilities. We calibrated these components to match the building’s cooling requirements, ensuring energy efficiency.
3. Drainage System Repair
Clogged drains can wreak havoc on any HVAC system. We cleared the blockage, installed a new condensate pump, and applied anti-corrosion treatments to prevent future issues.
4. Preventive Maintenance
We didn’t just stop at repairs. Our technicians performed a full preventive maintenance service, including cleaning the coils, lubricating moving parts, and tightening connections.
5. Performance Testing
Before declaring the job complete, we ran the unit through a series of performance tests, ensuring optimal airflow, cooling efficiency, and energy consumption.
