Commercial Hospital & Lab Ventilation in Anaheim, CA

Your facility’s ventilation is mission‑critical. A small imbalance can disrupt procedures, compromise sterility, or shut down research. That is why #1 AC Guys leads with engineering—calculating air change rates, verifying pressure cascades, and validating controls—before we ever install a single bolt. We combine this rigor with AC PRO equipment and components to provide dependable, maintainable systems tailored to Anaheim’s hospitals, clinics, and laboratories.

Engineering‑first design

Our process starts with a detailed assessment: occupancy and process loads, required air changes per space type, hazard classifications, and existing mechanical capacity. We model supply, return, and exhaust paths; develop pressure maps; and specify filtration (MERV 13+ to HEPA) appropriate to the application. Sequences of operation define normal, setback, purge, alarm, and emergency modes. We then select AC PRO‑supplied air handlers, fans, coils, and controls to match performance targets, energy budgets, and serviceability. Submittals, stamped drawings, and coordination with your GC, facilities, and infection prevention team are included.

What we deliver

• Hospital spaces: isolation rooms (AIIR), anterooms, ORs, procedure rooms, ICUs, pharmacies (USP 797/800), central sterile, imaging suites.
• Laboratories: chemistry, microbiology, BSL spaces, vivariums, cleanrooms, and environmental chambers.
• Exhaust systems: fume hoods, biosafety cabinets, canopy and snorkel exhaust, energy recovery where appropriate.
• Air handlers and distribution: AC PRO‑sourced AHUs, VAV/VVT boxes, ECM/variable speed fans, low‑leak ductwork, sound and vibration control.
• Filtration and air quality: MERV 13–16, HEPA H14, carbon media, UV‑C options, humidity control, and decontamination sequences.
• Controls and monitoring: DDC/BAS integration, room pressure and ACH monitoring, alarm points, trend logs, and remote visibility.
• Seismic and safety: California seismic anchorage, access and service clearances, lockout/tagout plans, and safe maintenance protocols.

Validated performance

We do not stop at installation. Our team performs testing, adjusting, and balancing (TAB); duct leakage testing; filter integrity checks for HEPA systems; and pressure relationship verification for each room. We document air change rates, differential pressures, and pressurization stability over time. Controls are commissioned to ensure alarms, modes, and interlocks behave as designed. You receive a clear close‑out package with as‑builts, O&M manuals, and trend reports that support audits and ongoing accreditation.

Service and maintenance

Healthcare and lab operations cannot wait. We set up proactive maintenance plans that include scheduled MERV/HEPA filter changes, coil cleaning, fan and belt service, bearing lubrication, and sensor calibration. For critical spaces, we coordinate after‑hours work, perform containment where needed, and restore spaces to validated setpoints when service is complete. Our Anaheim‑based team understands healthcare infection control requirements and works to minimize downtime while protecting patients, staff, and assets.

Safety and compliance

Our designs are engineered to meet applicable standards and guidelines such as ASHRAE 170 for healthcare ventilation, ASHRAE 62.1 for IAQ, California Title 24 energy code, and relevant NFPA and laboratory safety standards (e.g., NFPA 45) as adopted by your jurisdiction. We coordinate with facility stakeholders and local authorities to support permitting and inspections, including California HCAI/OSHPD requirements where applicable. While compliance approval rests with authorities having jurisdiction, our documentation and commissioning streamline review and help avoid surprises.

Energy and resilience

Ventilation is energy‑intensive. We balance safety with efficiency using variable airflow strategies, energy recovery, intelligent setbacks, and high‑efficiency AC PRO components. Where operations demand uptime, we design for N+1 redundancy, bypass paths, quick‑change filter racks, and maintainable layouts that reduce service interruptions and life‑cycle cost.

Areas we serve

Based in Los Angeles and active across Southern California, we serve Anaheim and all of Orange County, plus Los Angeles County, Ventura County, and Western Riverside County. Whether you operate a hospital campus, specialty clinic, university lab, or private research facility, our team can mobilize quickly and scale to multi‑site programs.

Brands and training

We implement solutions using AC PRO equipment and parts for dependable lead times and support. Our engineers have trained at the factories of Fujitsu (Japan), Mitsubishi Elektrik (Thailand), Midea (China), Gree (China), and Hier (China). This manufacturer‑level understanding, combined with four generations of engineering experience, helps us solve complex airflow problems other contractors avoid.

Our mission: healthy air for healthy lives

Clean, correctly pressurized air protects patients, clinicians, and researchers. It also protects your schedule, reputation, and results. From new construction to renovations and retro‑commissioning, #1 AC Guys provides the design depth, installation quality, and documentation discipline your facility deserves—backed by responsive local service.
