Common Commercial AC Systems:

  • VRF / VRV AC System
  • Ducted Split AC
  • Packaged AC Units
  • Rooftop AC Units (RTU)

For each project, the system selection is done separately based on site conditions and heat load.

Step 1: Professional Site Survey & Inspection

Before installation, we thoroughly check the site to prevent any issues in the future.

The following things are checked during a site survey:

  • Total area (sq ft / sq meter)
  • Ceiling height & insulation
  • Occupancy & usage type
  • Electrical load & power availability
  • Outdoor / rooftop space
  • Ventilation & fresh air requirement

A proper site survey helps avoid incorrect sizing and unnecessary costs.

Step 2: Heat Load Calculation (TR Calculation)

Heat load calculation is very important for every commercial space.

The heat load includes:

  • Number of people
  • Lighting & electrical equipment
  • Window & sunlight exposure
  • Building orientation
  • Application type (office, hospital, showroom, etc.)

Based on this, the correct tonnage (tons of refrigeration) is determined.

Step 3: Right Commercial AC System Selection

The best HVAC system is recommended based on the heat load and budget.

Popular Commercial AC Options:

  • VRF/VRV System – Best for energy efficiency and zoning.
  • Ducted system – suitable for offices and showrooms.
  • Packaged AC Unit – large halls and industrial areas
  • Rooftop air conditioning unit (RTU) – Malls and warehouses

Step 4: HVAC Design & Layout Drawings

Before installation, we prepare professional HVAC drawings:

  • Indoor unit location plan
  • Outdoor unit placement
  • Refrigerant piping route
  • Drain piping
  • Ducting layout (if required)
  • Electrical wiring diagram

These drawings are essential for smooth installation and easy maintenance.
