Commercial HVAC for Contra Costa Businesses

Mostly the light commercial buildings common in Contra Costa: offices, retail shops and strip centers, restaurants, small warehouses and light industrial spaces, churches, and apartment buildings. These usually run rooftop package units or split systems, and that equipment is our focus. Large central plants with chillers and cooling towers are a different specialty, and we will tell you plainly if a building is outside what we do.

Yes. Rooftop package units, including gas-electric packs and heat pump packages, make up a large share of the commercial equipment in our area. We diagnose and repair them, maintain them, and replace them, including curb adapters when a new unit's footprint doesn't match the old curb. Larger units may need a crane, which we schedule and coordinate with you and, when required, the city.

Usually. Most rooftop and split system repairs happen on the roof or in a mechanical closet, so customers and staff keep working. For replacements, we plan the swap to keep the heating or cooling outage short, and where a building has several units we replace them one at a time so part of the space stays conditioned. If a job needs a specific day, we sort that out when we quote.

Yes. Commercial units run long hours and sit in sun and dust, so they need more regular attention than a home system. We set up maintenance on a schedule that fits your equipment and budget, usually covering filters, belts, coils, drains, refrigerant pressures and the heating section, with notes on each unit after every visit. Our commercial maintenance page has the details.

Yes. A commercial equipment replacement generally needs a mechanical permit from the city, or from Contra Costa County for unincorporated areas like Bay Point and Discovery Bay. California's Energy Code also sets requirements for economizers and controls, and it can require heat pump equipment on some replacements. We handle the permit and inspection so you aren't left sorting out code questions on your own.
