Compressor Gas

Compressor Gas PM Services in Manhattan and New York City

When your air conditioning stops working, you hope it’s just a small technical issue. In some cases, the problem requires a visit from your air conditioning service, and it’s fixed in no time. Then there are the problems that cause serious interruptions to your business and budget. When compressors fail, it’s one of the most stressful problems for your HVAC system.

Taking care of your compressor and having routine compressor gas maintenance is the best thing you can do to get the most out of your HVAC system. Did you know? The compressor is arguably the most important part of your HVAC system. In New York City, your system cannot operate with a failed compressor. These parts are considered very durable; they ideally always appreciate their maximum lifespans. In the event that a compressor did not meet its lifespan potential, chances are the problem was preventable by having great maintenance.

How Can You Prevent Compressor Failure Through Maintenance?

In order to save your compressors from problems in the future, you have to watch out for signs today. Some of the most common signs your compressor is failing are blocked coils, blocked suction lines, being overloaded with refrigerant, too little refrigerant, sanitation issues in the unit, lack of adequate oil, and more.

When we provide preventative maintenance to your compressor, we pay close attention to all of these signs. Tracking these signs over time and providing solutions is how we get the absolute most out of your compressor.

Frequently Asked Questions About Compressor Gas

Let’s talk

Commercial HVAC systems typically use four main types of compressors: reciprocating, rotary, screw, and centrifugal compressors. Reciprocating compressors, known for their longevity, utilize pistons to compress refrigerant gas. Rotary compressors, which incorporate a rotating mechanism, offer compact size and quieter operation. Screw compressors use two interlocking screws to compress the gas and are valued for their efficiency and ability to handle high cooling loads. Lastly, centrifugal compressors apply a rotating impeller to transfer kinetic energy to the refrigerant, and they excel in applications requiring high refrigerant flow rates.

Refrigerant is the lifeblood of HVAC systems, carrying heat energy between the evaporator and condenser coils. The type of refrigerant determines the system's pressure and temperature characteristics, affecting overall energy efficiency. Refrigerant gas, when compressed by the compressor, absorbs heat from the indoor air through the evaporator coil. Upon reaching the condenser coil, it releases the absorbed heat to the outside air.

When designing commercial HVAC systems, several factors are paramount: the compressor type and size must align with the application's cooling and heating demands, ensuring efficient operation. The choice of refrigerant impacts system design concerning environmental regulations and temperature requirements. The system must balance energy efficiency, cost, and performance. Properly sizing the compressor prevents both excessive wear and unnecessary energy consumption. Additionally, the integration of smart controls and regular maintenance can substantially improve long-term efficiency and reliability.
