If it is time to replace your commercial HVAC system, it is important to be aware of the three primary types of HVAC systems that you can install on your business. You want to install a commercial HVAC system that will take care of your business's unique needs. The three primary types of commercial HVAC systems are packaged systems, heat pumps, and ductless systems.

Packaged System

The first type of system that you can install is a packaged system. A packaged system is where you install a heating and a cooling system that are two different systems; however, they are installed together in one cabinet or area.

Installing a heating and cooling system side-by-side is an easy way to save money. Installing a system together will also help improve the energy efficiency of each unit. The units will work together to help keep your commercial building at the right temperature. Packaged systems are also designed to provide you with the capacity for de-humidification, which is great if you live in an area with a lot of humidity in the summer.

Ductless System

Conventional HVAC systems can take up a lot of space, especially when it comes to laying all the ductwork necessary for a commercial HVAC system. If your building is a little short on space, or you don't want to modify your building in order to install or upgrade your HVAC system, a ductless system may be a good choice.

With a ductless system, you can set up zone heating, so you can cool and heat different areas of your commercial building differently. With zone heating, you can keep your showroom, for example, at room temperature, and your storage area cooler. Ductless heating systems are great if you don't have a lot of space for ductwork or if you are looking for more of a zone heating solution.

Heat Pumps

Finally, you can go with a heat pump system. Heat pumps are really effective at heating and cooling large buildings. You can put your heat pump in the basement or even up on the roof.

A heat pump can be extremely effective at keeping the same consistent temperature throughout your commercial building. A heat pump can do more than heat; it can move hot air outside and bring hot air into your building as well.

Get a consultation with a local commercial HVAC contractor. They will be able to help you choose the right commercial system for your commercial business's specific heating, cooling, and energy usage needs.
