Air Handling Unit services & upgrades

Regular servicing of Air Handling Units (AHUs) is crucial for maintaining indoor air quality, energy efficiency, and overall system performance. AHUs are integral components of HVAC systems responsible for circulating and regulating air within buildings. Here's why AHU servicing is important:

  • Energy Efficiency: A well-maintained AHU consumes less energy to operate, resulting in lower utility bills. Routine servicing can  lead to a reduction of the system's workload and energy consumption.
  • Optimal Performance: Regular servicing ensures that AHUs operate at peak efficiency, which helps in maintaining stable conditions. This not only enhances production but also improves the overall performance of the HVAC system.

  • Improved Air Quality: AHUs play a significant role in filtering and distributing air throughout the controlled environment. Routine servicing involves cleaning or replacing filters, removing dust, debris, and contaminants, thereby improving air quality and creating a healthier environment for occupants.

  • Preventive Maintenance: Regular servicing helps identify and address potential issues before they escalate into costly repairs or system failures. By detecting and rectifying minor problems early on, servicing extends the lifespan of AHUs and reduces the likelihood of unexpected breakdowns.

 

Filter inspection and replacement 

Filter changes are critical in preventing product contamination in various industries, especially those where air quality plays a crucial role, such as pharmaceutical manufacturing, food processing, electronics manufacturing, and cleanroom environments. Here are a number of reasons why regular filter maintenance is crucial to keeping your company operating at its peak:

  • Preventing Cross-Contamination: In facilities where multiple products are manufactured or processed, preventing cross-contamination is crucial. Regular filter changes help minimize the risk of cross-contamination by maintaining proper air quality and preventing the spread of contaminants between different production areas.
  • Particle Removal: Filters in air handling systems remove particles such as dust, product migration, microorganisms, and other contaminants from the air. In industries like pharmaceuticals and electronics manufacturing, even tiny particles can lead to product defects or failures. 

Air validation testing 

Air validation is important for ensuring that air handling systems and controlled environments meet specified standards of air quality, particulate control and desired temperature & humidity levels. The below testing procedures we provide ensure stable environment conditions these processes help identify any potential issues or deviations from required standards.

  • HEPA filter integrity test (DOP testing)
  • Temperature measurement validation
  • Humidity measurement validation
  • Airflow readings / air curtain setup 
  • Continuous air monitoring
  • Particulate count

Decontamination services

Regular decontamination of AHUs is essential for maintaining low energy costs and clean pollutant free process air, particularly in settings such as pharmaceutical, food manufacturing, aerospace and research laboratories. 

  • Coil cleaning is crucial for maintaining the efficiency and performance of Air Handling Units. soiled coil fins can can increase energy consumption by 30-40% during times of peak cooling and heating usage. 
  • Contaminants present in the air can compromise the integrity and purity of products, leading to defects, spoilage, or recalls. AHU decontamination ensures that products are manufactured or processed in controlled environments free from airborne contaminants.
