Commercial and Specialty Services

What commercial and specialty services do we provide?

Your Comfort Heating & Air repairs and installs commercial HVAC, new construction HVAC, thermostats, gas lines and gas fireplaces for businesses and homes across Northern Utah. A dead rooftop unit, a rotten-egg smell near a gas line, or a thermostat that will not respond all call for a trained technician. If you smell gas, leave the building and call your gas company first, then contact us for the repair.

Commercial HVAC

When a rooftop unit goes down, your business loses money, customers, and productivity by the minute. Commercial systems take a massive beating compared to standard residential units, running longer hours under much heavier loads. We frequently see economizers stuck wide open pulling in unconditioned outside air, massive blower motors failing under high static pressure, or burnt-out contactors stopping the cooling process entirely. Sometimes it is a slow refrigerant leak in a large-tonnage system causing the equipment to constantly short-cycle and drive up your utility bills.

Uneven temperatures across different zones of the building or strange mechanical smells coming from the vents are your first warning signs. We get up on the roof or into the mechanical room and immediately start tracing voltage. We check the amp draw on the compressors, inspect the massive heat exchangers for stress cracks, and test the economizer logic boards to see where the communication is failing. Our priority is getting your doors open and your employees comfortable fast.

What we check during a commercial call:

• Voltage and amp draw on all 3-phase compressors
• Heat exchangers for stress cracks and carbon monoxide risks
• Economizer logic boards and fresh-air damper operation
• Refrigerant pressures and overall airflow delivery

Catch a struggling compressor early, and we might just be replacing a contactor or capacitor for a fraction of the cost of a new unit. Let it grind itself to death, and you are looking at a crane lift and a massive bill for a whole new rooftop setup. When a system is too far gone to repair economically, property owners often pivot to Commercial & Specialty New Construction HVAC to design a much more efficient replacement. If you need quick troubleshooting or a planned system overhaul, our Commercial & Specialty Commercial HVAC team handles every call across Northern Utah.

New Construction HVAC

A flawless building design means absolutely nothing if the ductwork is undersized and the finished rooms never reach a comfortable temperature. Builders and property owners often deal with poor airflow in finished spaces, units failing to keep up with the square footage, or ductwork sweating in unconditioned attics. The root cause is almost always skipped steps in the initial design phase. Rushed jobs lead to improper heat load calculations, restrictive duct design causing high static pressure, or wildly inadequate return air pathways.

We do not guess when laying out the mechanical footprint for a new property. We look directly at the blueprints, run the actual heat load calculations based on the building envelope, windows, and insulation, and design a custom duct layout that breathes properly. We install high-efficiency Goodman or Amana systems designed to last the life of the building. We also integrate proper Commercial & Specialty Thermostats from day one so you have total control over the newly established zones.

Doing It Right The First Time

Do the ductwork and sizing right the first time while the walls are still open and the framing is exposed. Trying to fix a bottlenecked trunk line or upsize a system after the drywall is mudded, taped, and painted will cost you ten times as much in labor and demolition.

Thermostats

A blank screen or an unresponsive control unit can easily mimic a catastrophic, multi-thousand-dollar system failure. Property owners often panic when the air conditioner or furnace runs non-stop without satisfying the set point, or when wild temperature swings take over the building. It is rarely just dead batteries causing the issue. We routinely find blown C-wire fuses on the control board, outdated mercury switches losing calibration, or faulty relays in the sub-base that fail to send the 24-volt signal.

Smart thermostats frequently drop Wi-Fi connectivity due to poor low-voltage power delivery from the main equipment. We test the low-voltage wiring right at the wall and trace it all the way back to the main control board. If the wire is compromised or chewed by pests, we pull new thermostat wire through the walls. If you are upgrading to a smart thermostat, we ensure the system's control board can actually handle the power draw and set up the staging parameters correctly.

Common thermostat problems we fix:

• Blank screens and zero system response to temperature changes
• Short-cycling equipment due to faulty ambient temperature readings
• Smart thermostats lacking a dedicated C-wire for constant power
• Broken communication between the sub-base and the primary equipment

A minor thermostat issue can easily look like a massive equipment failure. Do not let a fly-by-night technician condemn your whole HVAC system without putting a multimeter on the low-voltage controls first. If your heating or cooling system is acting up, a quick check of the controls might prevent an unnecessary call for extensive Commercial HVAC repair.

Gas Lines

A hissing sound behind a stove or the faint smell of rotten eggs is a serious safety hazard that requires immediate professional intervention. Gas leaks usually stem from aging, corroded black iron pipes, loose flare fittings, or degraded thread sealant that finally gives way. Appliance starvation is another major issue, which happens when someone installs a massive tankless water heater or commercial range on an undersized half-inch gas line. You might notice dead patches of grass in the yard over a buried line or new high-BTU appliances failing to ignite properly because they are starved for fuel.

Safety is always our absolute first priority on these calls. We shut off the main supply to secure the property, then pressure test the entire system with a highly sensitive manometer to pinpoint the exact pressure drop. We locate the leak using electronic gas sniffers and specialized bubble solutions that reveal even the smallest micro-leaks. Once the hazard is identified, we thread or weld new pipe strictly to local code, ensuring the system can handle the required capacity safely.

How we handle gas line diagnostics:

• Shut off the main supply to secure the property from combustion risks
• Pressure test the entire system with a manometer to verify integrity
• Pinpoint pressure drops using electronic gas sniffers and leak solution
• Thread or weld new iron pipe strictly to current local code requirements

Gas lines are never a weekend DIY project for an enthusiastic homeowner. A tiny leak behind a wall is a ticking time bomb, so you must pay a licensed, insured professional to pressure test the system and fix it right the first time. Ensuring proper fuel delivery is also the very first step before installing Commercial & Specialty Gas Fireplaces in a property. Protect your property and ensure safe appliance operation through our dedicated Gas Lines team.

Gas Fireplaces

A gas fireplace should provide instant, safe warmth, not delayed ignition that sounds like a small explosion in your living room. We get calls constantly for pilot lights that refuse to stay lit, heavy soot buildup blackening the glass, or strange chemical odors when the unit is running. The usual suspects are dirty thermopiles or thermocouples not generating enough millivolts to hold the main gas valve open. We also frequently see clogged burner ports, failing main gas valves, or blocked venting assemblies that restrict proper airflow.

We strip the unit down, clean the pilot assembly, test the millivolt output of the thermopile, and verify the gas pressure at the manifold. A routine cleaning and thermocouple replacement is cheap, highly effective maintenance. Letting delayed ignition persist will eventually crack the expensive glass front or damage the firebox, turning a simple repair into a total unit replacement.

The Danger of Delayed Ignition

Crucially, we ensure the venting is drafting properly so dangerous carbon monoxide is not spilling back into your living space. A poorly venting fireplace can ruin your indoor air quality and pose a severe health risk to anyone inside. If we find the main supply pressure is the root issue, we will transition to inspecting the Gas Lines feeding the unit to ensure adequate volume. Keep your home safe and warm all winter with our Gas Fireplaces expertise.
