Project Overview

For this project, we installed a Daikin rooftop HVAC unit and designed a custom ductwork system to improve cooling and airflow inside a busy automotive shop in Pittsburgh, PA. With high indoor temperatures from daily operations, maintaining a comfortable environment was essential for both employee productivity and customer satisfaction.

Our team ensured the HVAC unit was properly sized for the space, optimizing energy efficiency and cooling performance. According to Energy Star, properly installed HVAC systems can reduce energy consumption by up to 30%, leading to long-term cost savings and improved system longevity.

Challenges

  1. Designing custom ductwork for optimal airflow distribution.
  2. Ensuring the HVAC unit size matched the cooling demands of a large industrial space.
  3. Minimizing installation downtime to keep the business operational.
  4. Addressing airflow restrictions caused by workspace layout constraints.

Results

  1. Effective cooling for a high-heat work environment.
  2. Improved air circulation to prevent stagnant air buildup.
  3. Optimized energy efficiency with a well-balanced airflow system.
  4. Better working conditions for employees by reducing indoor heat levels.

Why Proper Ventilation Matters in Industrial Spaces

In large industrial settings like automotive shops, poor airflow can lead to overheating, air stagnation, and increased HVAC strain. This is why businesses must invest in properly designed ductwork to maintain cooling efficiency and extend system lifespan.
