Warmth is essential for our health and comfort, especially in areas with low outdoor temperatures. Both residential and commercial indoor heating systems are vital in combating the cold weather keeping our environment warm, comfortable, and safe. There are various ways to maintain warmth within a building, and no single heating system is the perfect fit for all commercial buildings, considering factors like maintenance, reliability, and costs. Below are some common types of heating systems used in commercial buildings.
Boilers
Boilers are a highly sought-after heating system extensively used in commercial properties. These systems are advantageous in heating large buildings and essential to commercial HVAC systems. Boilers utilize oil, gas, or electricity to heat water or produce steam, which is then circulated through pipes to distribute heat to different areas within the building. They provide an efficient and reliable heating solution for commercial properties, ensuring the indoor temperature remains comfortable and warm throughout the year.
Heat Pumps
Heat pumps are a heating system that extracts heat from the air and circulates it back into the property. Unlike boilers, which require a fuel source like oil or gas to operate, heat pumps rely solely on the heat in the outside air. While heat pump systems may not work as efficiently in freezing temperatures, they are typically very energy-efficient and cost-effective for commercial buildings, making them an ideal choice for maintaining a consistent indoor temperature.
Furnaces
Furnaces are heating systems powered by electricity, gas, or oil. With proper maintenance, these systems can be dependable and efficient tools for heating a building. Furnaces operate by circulating hot air through ducts, delivering warmth to every room within the property.
