Are your heating coils keeping things warm?

Your commercial building’s need for healing coils may change over time, just as its need for cooling coils It’s important to make sure heating coils keep up with demand as updates are made to buildings and new equipment is added. Hot water coils or steam coils that were designed to meet the workload when first installed could be insufficient to heat a building after changes are made, like additional offices or living spaces. Take a look at your own building. Does the building now have more occupants, computer equipment, and lighting? Has new equipment been added that impacts how much heat is needed?

Emergent Coils can design more efficient heating coils to meet your building’s current needs. For example, if newly added manufacturing equipment puts moisture into the air, heating coils with humidity control may be needed. If solvent or other corrosive products are being used in your building, heating coils may need to be replaced with coils containing tubes and fins made of different materials to prevent corrosion.

Another reason to look at your heating system is energy efficiency. A low-cost solution to increase energy efficiency could be as simple as cleaning and maintaining your current equipment. For some older HVAC systems, upgrading to new equipment may be the only way to improve energy efficiency. Making the right choice involves research into your current and future needs and a thorough assessment of your current equipment. Of course, how much you have in the budget is a key consideration! Over the long-term, having energy-efficient HVAC systems will pay off in terms of performance, cost and air quality.
