Climate Control Engineered for Working Environments
Warehouses and light manufacturing facilities present unique HVAC challenges—high ceilings, large open spaces, equipment heat loads, and varying occupancy patterns all demand specialized approaches to heating, cooling, and ventilation.
HVAC Solutions We Provide
- Destratification Fans – Circulating trapped ceiling heat back to floor level in winter
- High-Velocity Directional Heating – Targeted warmth for work stations and assembly areas
- Evaporative Cooling – Cost-effective cooling for suitable climates and applications
- Spot Cooling Systems – Focused comfort for specific work zones without conditioning entire spaces
Understanding Industrial Space Needs
- Temperature Stratification
Heat rises. In 20-30 foot ceilings, warm air collects overhead while workers freeze at floor level. We design systems that address this challenge directly. - Spot vs. General Conditioning
Heating or cooling entire warehouses wastes energy. Strategic equipment placement conditions work areas efficiently while managing overall space economically. - Process Heat Management
Manufacturing equipment generates substantial heat. We calculate these loads and design cooling systems that maintain comfortable working conditions. - Dust and Contaminant Control
Industrial operations create airborne particles. Proper ventilation and filtration protect equipment while maintaining air quality for workers.
Seasonal Challenges
- Winter Heating – Maintaining working temperatures without excessive costs in large volumes
- Summer Cooling – Managing solar gain through metal roofs and large door openings
- Shoulder Seasons – Economizer strategies using outside air for free cooling
Energy Efficiency Approaches
- Occupancy Sensors – Reducing conditioning in unoccupied areas automatically
- Programmable Controls – Matching operation to production schedules and shift patterns
- High-Efficiency Equipment – Reducing operating costs in facilities running extended hours
- Natural Ventilation Integration – Using operable doors and windows when conditions permit
Ceiling Height Considerations
Standard equipment struggles in industrial spaces. We select and position units specifically rated for high-bay applications with throw distances reaching floor level effectively.
Mezzanine and Office Integration
Climate-controlled office spaces within larger warehouses need independent systems coordinating with overall facility ventilation and temperature management.
Zoning for Mixed-Use Spaces
Warehouses often combine storage, office areas, production zones, and shipping—each needing different climate control. We design integrated systems serving diverse space requirements.
Rapid Installation Options
Production facilities can't shut down for extended periods. We plan installations minimizing disruption and can work around operational schedules when necessary.
Existing Facility Improvements
Upgrading inadequate systems or expanding conditioning to new areas? We assess current infrastructure and design solutions that integrate seamlessly while improving performance.
Maintenance Accessibility
Industrial equipment locations must allow service access. We position units and ductwork considering maintenance requirements and safety for technicians.
Where we are essential
Ventilation Requirements
Industrial HVAC involves specific codes for gas-fired equipment, electrical installations, exhaust requirements, and makeup air provisions. We handle all regulatory requirements.
General Air Exchange
Meeting code requirements for occupied industrial spaces
Process Exhaust
Removing welding fumes, chemical vapors, or manufacturing byproducts
Makeup Air Provision
Replacing exhausted air to maintain building pressure
Loading Dock Air Curtains
Managing outside air when doors open frequently
