Commercial heating and cooling in Spokane, WA

Commercial service

When the building is uncomfortable, business suffers

A home without heat is a hard night. A business without heat or cooling is lost sales, unhappy staff and sometimes a closed sign on the door. Customers leave a hot store. Employees can't focus in a freezing office. A kitchen that can't shed heat in July becomes a tough place to work.

We service and install heating and cooling equipment for small and mid-sized commercial buildings around Spokane. That includes offices, retail storefronts, restaurants, shops, warehouses, churches and multi-tenant buildings. We also work with property managers who need one dependable call for several locations.

One crew for the whole building

Commercial buildings rarely have just one kind of equipment. You might have rooftop units over the sales floor, a split system in the back office, a mini split in the server closet and a gas unit heater in the warehouse. We handle all of it, so you're not juggling three different contractors and three different invoices.

We work around your hours

We know you can't shut down for a service call. Whenever it's possible, we schedule maintenance and planned work before opening, after closing or on your slow days. For larger replacements, we plan the swap so the building is without heat or cooling for as short a time as we can manage, and we tell you ahead of time exactly when that will be.

Rooftop units

Out of sight, but working hard

Rooftop units live a rough life in Spokane. They sit through snow loads and freezing wind all winter, then bake on a hot roof through summer stretches in the 90s. Because nobody sees them day to day, small problems like a loose belt, a clogged filter or a dirty coil can go on for months until the unit finally quits.

When we service a rooftop unit, we look at it the way you'd look at a work truck. Is it running as it should? What's wearing out? What's likely to fail next season? You get a straight answer on whether it's worth repairing or whether it's time to budget for a replacement, so a failure doesn't catch you off guard in the middle of a heat wave.

Repair or replace?

If a unit is older, needs repeated repairs or can't keep the space comfortable anymore, replacement is often the better use of your money. We'll give you repair and replacement prices side by side and help you plan. Replacing a rooftop unit on your schedule is a lot easier than replacing it in an emergency.

New construction and tenant improvement

Ductwork and equipment for new and remodeled spaces

We install ductwork in commercial buildings, from main supply trunks to the branch runs that feed each room. On new construction we work with the builder or general contractor to get equipment and ducts in at the right stage, before walls and ceilings close up.

Tenant improvements have their own challenges. A space built as one open retail floor might become three offices and a break room. That means the old duct layout, thermostat locations and equipment size may no longer fit. We look at the new floor plan, figure out what can be reused, and design the changes so every room gets the air it needs. More about our ductwork service.

Indoor air quality

Cleaner air for staff and customers

People spend a full workday breathing the air in your building. Poor filtration, too little fresh air and dry winter air all add up to headaches, stuffy rooms and more sick days. Late summer wildfire smoke makes it worse, and most of the Spokane area deals with it in August and September.

We can upgrade filtration on your existing equipment, check that outside air dampers are working, add air cleaners and help with humidity. Small changes to a rooftop unit or air handler can make a big difference in how a building feels. Learn about air quality options.
