How to choose the right capacity of HVAC for my restaurant size?

Navigating the Intricacies of HVAC Capacity for Your Restaurant

In the bustling world of restaurants, where every detail from the ambiance to the menu plays a pivotal role in the overall experience, there's an often overlooked hero working tirelessly in the background: the HVAC system. This unsung champion ensures that every patron, from the couple on their first date to the large family celebrating a birthday, enjoys their meal in utmost comfort. At AirGreen, we've dedicated ourselves to ensuring that restaurants across Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, North Shore, and South Shore have the perfect HVAC system tailored to their unique needs. Let's explore the art of choosing the right HVAC capacity for your restaurant size.

Understanding the Role of HVAC in Restaurants

  • Temperature Control: Ensuring the dining area remains at a comfortable temperature, regardless of external weather conditions.

  • Air Quality: Filtering out contaminants and ensuring a continuous supply of fresh air.

  • Odor Management: Efficiently venting out cooking smells and preventing them from overwhelming the dining area.

Factors to Consider When Choosing HVAC Capacity

1. Size of the Dining Area

The larger the area, the greater the capacity required. It's not just about square footage but also the volume, considering ceiling height.

2. Kitchen Heat

Kitchens, with their grills, ovens, and stoves, generate significant heat. The HVAC system must compensate for this additional heat load.

3. Number of Occupants

More people mean more body heat and more fresh air requirements. A packed restaurant on a Saturday night will have different HVAC needs compared to a quiet Tuesday afternoon.

4. Insulation and Building Materials

Well-insulated buildings retain heat more efficiently, potentially requiring a smaller HVAC system. The type of construction material can also influence heat retention.

5. Local Climate

A restaurant in the heart of Montreal, with its cold winters, will have different heating requirements than one on the South Shore.
