The heating, ventilating and air conditioning system (HVAC) in your building is designed to control individual floors independent of the rest of the building.
HVAC on each floor is provided by an array of variable-air-volume (VAV) boxes. Each VAV is controlled independently by a thermostat to allow for maximum comfort. The air to the VAV boxes is supplied by a separate air handling unit on each floor.
The HVAC system is automatically controlled by a computerized energy management system, which is interfaced with a central computer that is monitored and controlled by Akridge engineers. Besides monitoring normal hours of operation, certain integral functions such as condenser water temperature, condenser water flow, night set-back thermostats and cooling tower temperatures are monitored by our company during the day and Kastle Systems during off hours.
These safeguards have been incorporated into our management practice to ensure a comfortable workplace expected by our Clients in a superior office building.
The HVAC system is serviced regularly for preventive maintenance. To minimize distraction to our Clients, we schedule filter changing and maintenance at night and on weekends. But from time to time an emergency situation may require maintenance or repairs during normal working hours. We try to keep this work to a minimum and, in most instances, advise our Clients prior to commencing service. We appreciate your cooperation in the event we are unable to notify you.
Normal heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) system hours are Monday through Friday (except legal holidays) from 8:00 AM until 6:00 PM. As our Client, you are entitled to heating or cooling Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM and (by request) on Saturdays between the hours of 8:00 AM and 1:00 PM without any additional expense.
Off Hour, Weekend and Holiday Heating and Cooling Requests. When you require heating or cooling prior to 8:00 AM or after 6:00 PM weekdays, or after 1:00 PM on Saturdays, please submit a request through the service request portal.
Please be reminded that HVAC is complimentary 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM, Monday through Friday and (by request) 8:00 AM - 1:00 PM on Saturdays. If you request HVAC outside of those hours, please contact your Property Manager for the current billable rate.
Should you have any questions or concerns or would like to set up long term after hours HVAC usage please contact your Property Manager.
