When the rooftop unit quits
A dead rooftop unit in July is a building problem, not a comfort complaint. Tenants call the manager, the manager calls us. The usual causes are worn belts, dirty coils, low refrigerant, a clogged drain line or an electrical fault, and each one gets found by inspecting the unit rather than swapping parts.
New York Mechanical delivers Commercial A/C installations, repairs and maintenance for buildings in Staten Island and the nearby boroughs, with 24/7 emergency response. The same family-owned shop that handles a house boiler handles the roof, so the person who answers is the person who knows the building.
The maintenance program, line by line
Keeping a commercial system efficient and reliable is a checklist, and we work through all of it: system inspections, filter maintenance, coil cleaning, refrigerant management, performance testing, electrical system checks, thermostat calibration, drain line cleaning, belt replacement and lubrication.
The payoff is the one every building owner wants: lower energy use, longer equipment life, greater reliability, improved indoor air quality and reduced operating costs. We cover buildings in Brooklyn, Staten Island and Manhattan.
Gino found us cold, on a reference, and his condo board has since adopted New York Mechanical for the building's maintenance.
Agreements, upgrades and Energy Audits
Customized maintenance agreements come as Quarterly, bi-annual, or annual plans, so a building picks the cadence that fits its load. Agreements include priority scheduling and emergency service, and long-term contracts carry discounted rates.
Beyond maintenance, we do duct cleaning with advanced duct cleaning technology, energy-efficient system upgrades, and Energy Audits, a comprehensive analysis of how much the building consumes. The audit shows where the next upgrade pays back first.
