Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC)

We Provide Superior Commercial Heating and Cooling Systems in Nashville and Middle Tennessee

Your commercial building is a big investment, with more complex needs and systems than a residential structure. It requires a commercial HVAC ( Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning) system that can meet the heavier workload, helping your employees stay comfortable and productive while encouraging your customers to keep coming back. Additionally, an inefficient or poorly maintained HVAC system can cost you money in energy bills and directly impact your bottom line.

That’s why it’s so important to choose a commercial HVAC contractor with experience across all types of commercial HVAC systems. At Maynard Select, our technicians have decades of installation, repair and maintenance experience with all types of commercial HVAC systems — including packaged rooftop and ground-mounted units. We also offer a tailored commercial preventive maintenance plan that keeps your system operating at peak form.

To complement your commercial HVAC system, we can install a range of indoor air quality products to help ensure the health and well-being of your employees and customers. Our flexible financing programs help you manage your company’s cash flow.

Filtering Your Air

Another issue that every business should be considering these days when replacing their HVAC system is air filtration systems. Keeping your staff and your customers safe and healthy is more important than ever. Adding the right indoor air quality equipment to your system can potentially go a long way towards keeping the air clean and healthy. HVAC systems, especially those that use forced air, can spread viruses and pathogens across a room at blinding speeds.

It’s also important to adjust your system. This allows you to constantly circulate fresh air from the outside to replace the stale air inside, to make sure the air stays clean. There are tons of options to filter and clean your air. From small portable single-room systems which may not be that effective in your business due to the size of your facility, to whole-building indoor air quality equipment — which are far more efficient at cleaning your air.

R-32 Refrigerant

A few years ago, the industry moved away from freon as a refrigerant to improve the environmental impact of HVAC systems. This reduced greenhouse gasses that contribute to global warming. While almost every non-heat pump HVAC system uses hydrofluorocarbons (or HFCs) for coolant, newer systems are turning towards a refrigerant called R-32 (or difluoromethane).

R-32 has less than one-half to one-third of the GWP (Global Warming Potential) rating of other kinds of refrigerants — which means that it’s also far more green than traditional refrigerants. Asking us about a system that uses this kind of refrigerant can also be a good option if you’re looking to reduce your carbon footprint.

Preventive Maintenance Plan

Your best insurance for reliable comfort!

Has your business been without air conditioning on a hot Tennessee day? Or without heat on a cold Tennessee night? Then you know how frustrating unexpected HVAC problems can be! When not properly maintained, the equipment works harder than it should, which wastes energy and also shortens your system’s life expectancy.

Preventive maintenance is more than just changing filters — it includes checking the safety components built into each system. It also includes efficiency testing to ensure controls are set properly, thus ensuring peak performance. Maynard Select offers a comprehensive preventive maintenance plan to cover your business’s heating and cooling equipment. As a preventive maintenance customer, you will receive priority service and a special discount on our flat-rate pricing

Most HVAC systems have energy wasting problems. Well-documented studies show:

  • Each 1/100th of an inch of dirt on an evaporator coil can increase system operating costs by 5%.
  • Dirty blower wheels can reduce airflow by over 30% and drastically increase system energy consumption.
  • A 20% refrigerant undercharge can result in HVAC system efficiency losses exceeding 50%.
  • A 10% reduction in air flow can increase system energy consumption by more than 10%.
  • A 15% return air leak from a 120-degree attic can double system operating costs.
  • Annual operating cost savings of more than $100 per rated-ton are possible with proper system maintenance.

Things To Consider When Hiring A Commercial HVAC contractor

Professional Skills

Commercial HVAC systems are much more complex than residential systems, and it takes seasoned professionals to understand the complexities, laws, and logistics that go into building and maintaining these systems. Hiring the wrong company can cost you thousands in lost profits and set your business back. Before calling a commercial HVAC company, consider these crucial characteristics when conducting your search.

Experience

Not only do you want to get a HVAC technician with commercial HVAC experience, look for one experienced in your particular area. For example, if you’re running a restaurant, you don’t want to hire a HVAC technician -- even an experienced one -- that’s never done restaurant heaitng and cooling before. Also, beware of companies that exaggerate their commercial experience. Ask for references so you are sure you are making the best decision for you and your business.
