Our dedicated team of reactive support experts can help reduce unplanned downtime, increase asset life and reliability, and ensure productive environments are a major part of our planned maintenance and predictive and diagnostic services.
We are engineers specialising in the repair, refurbishment and replacement of ventilation systems. We have considerable experience in solving ventilation problems. These might include too hot, too cold, too much air, too little air, noise problems, reliability problems, as well as problems with the ventilation
equipment itself.
Ventilation Problem Solving
Ventilation and air conditioning are an essential part of the building fabric, and are covered in legislation by the Building Regulations Part F – Ventilation and Part L – Conservation of Fuel and Power.
There are further standards for particular products, building types and industries which need to be considered. Beyond the regulations, the reality is that ventilation systems become unfit for purpose for a variety of reasons.
AHS Specialist Services are experts at ventilation problem solving and offer practical solutions to the following:
-
Change of use of the ventilated area, for example – big increase in room occupancy, the addition of equipment giving off heat, steam, noise, odours etc.
-
Water leaking from air handling units. This is a major reason for corrosion and deterioration in air handling units and can be caused by leaking heating and cooling coils, water carry-over from cooling coils, and incorrectly trapped cooling coil drains.
-
Flood damage, including moisture surveys with specialist measurement of moisture in AHU panels, and refurbishment of water damaged components.
-
Black dust around supply air ceiling grilles is unsightly and a sign of faulty filtration in the air handling unit. This can be caused by low grade filters, air bypassing the filters, filter collapse due to high pressure, or AHU design fault.
-
Low airflow can be caused by lack of maintenance, such as stretched fan drive belts, blocked inlet louvres, closed dampers, blocked coils or filters, incorrect inverter settings.
-
Too hot, too cold, high or low humidity may be a problem with the controls or incorrectly sized equipment. Draughts are a common problem caused by ventilation systems.
We are happy to work with other experts and trades to provide a successful outcome to complex issues in building services. Based in Ringwood in Hampshire, we work throughout the UK on commercial, public and industrial building ventilation systems. Our people have a wide range of skills including electrical, mechanical, controls, commissioning.
We manage all works to ensure work is completed on time to customer satisfaction. All works are done by in-house AHS engineers.
