Commercial DDC (Direct Digital Controls) in Burbank

In Burbank’s fast-paced commercial environment, dependable Direct Digital Controls (DDC) are essential for comfort, air quality, and energy performance. #1 AC Guys designs and services open, data-driven control systems that integrate AC PRO-supplied equipment and accessories with modern sensors and sequences—so your facility runs efficiently and your occupants breathe healthier air.

What We Control and Integrate

We engineer complete DDC architectures for single buildings and multi-site portfolios: rooftop and air-handling units, VAV/VVT systems, VRF heat recovery, boilers, chillers, pumps, exhaust, make-up air, ERV/HRV, demand-control ventilation, economizers, and advanced IAQ strategies.

• DDC design, submittals, and sequence of operations (SOO)
• Retrofit and new-construction controls, panel build, and wiring
• Programming, graphics, trending, and alarm strategies
• Functional testing, commissioning, and M&V to Title 24
• Integration of AC PRO-supplied equipment, sensors, and accessories
• Energy analytics, scheduling, setback, and optimum start/stop
• IAQ optimization: CO2, VOC, PM2.5 sensors; ventilation and filtration tuning
• Remote monitoring, alerts, and performance reporting
• Preventive maintenance, calibration, and lifecycle planning

Why #1 AC Guys

We are a fourth-generation family of engineers with 80+ years in engineering. Our commercial controls team specializes in large and complex projects across Los Angeles County and beyond. Our engineers have been trained at the factories of Fujitsu (Japan), Mitsubishi Elektrik (Thailand), Midea (China), Gree (China), and Hier (China). That foundation helps us integrate VRF/mini-split systems with DDC via gateways while keeping an open, serviceable architecture.

• Complex-project expertise: studios, campuses, offices, retail, hospitality, and healthcare clinics
• Code and standards fluency: Title 24, ASHRAE 62.1/55, and local AHJ requirements
• Data-first approach: trend logs, KPI dashboards, and FDD to prevent downtime
• Transparent documentation: as-builts, point lists, graphics, and SOPs for your team
• Reliable parts and logistics through AC PRO supply channels
• Local, responsive service in Burbank with prioritized dispatch when you need it

Our Proven Process

• Discovery & site survey: goals, constraints, and existing system assessment
• Engineering & submittals: SOO, point list, panel schedules, and network design
• Panel build & prewire: quality control, labeling, and factory testing
• Installation & integration: BACnet/IP, BACnet MS/TP, and Modbus TCP/RTU
• Point-to-point checkout: validation of every input, output, alarm, and trend
• Commissioning & verification: sequences tuned to comfort and energy targets
• Training & handoff: user-friendly graphics and operations playbooks
• Ongoing service: monitoring, maintenance, and continuous optimization

Smart Sequences That Deliver

We build control logic that balances IAQ, comfort, and cost:

• Demand-control ventilation with CO2/VOC and outdoor air quality logic
• Economizer with IAQ lockouts and enthalpy verification
• VAV static pressure and supply air reset for fan energy reduction
• Hot-water and chilled-water reset with weather compensation
• Chiller and boiler staging with runtime balancing
• Optimum start/stop and night purge for fast morning recovery

For mixed systems, we integrate VRF from Fujitsu, Mitsubishi Elektrik, Midea, Gree, and Hier via approved gateways, aligning manufacturer best practices with open DDC supervision to maintain flexibility and serviceability.

Healthy Air, Lower Costs

Our mission is healthy indoor air for a healthy life. That is why we verify ventilation rates, filtration performance, humidity control, and outdoor air strategies—then trend and report them, so you can prove compliance and comfort while managing energy spend.

Service Area

Headquartered in Los Angeles County, we serve Burbank, Glendale, Pasadena, and surrounding cities, as well as Orange County, Ventura County, and Western Riverside County. Whether you manage a single facility or a multi-site portfolio, our commercial controls team can standardize your approach and support your operations locally.
