Commercial Ventilation Design in Calabasas

When clean, correctly balanced air matters, Calabasas property owners turn to #1 AC Guys. We are a fourth‑generation, family‑owned team of HVAC engineers with 80+ years of engineering heritage, specializing in Commercial Ventilation Design for complex and large-scale projects across Los Angeles County and surrounding areas.

What We Design

• Outside air and exhaust strategies that meet ASHRAE 62.1 for diverse occupancies
• Make-up air and pressure zoning to control cross-contamination and odors
• DOAS integration, demand control ventilation, and economizers for energy savings
• Ductwork, shafts, louvers, and terminal selections sized for low noise and low static
• Kitchen grease, restroom, and general exhaust with proper separation and discharge
• Filtration solutions (MERV/HEPA), UV options, and IAQ monitoring provisions
• Controls sequences for BAS, CO2/VOC sensors, and occupancy-based ventilation
• Commissioning scope and TAB requirements for verifiable performance

Our mission is simple: healthy air for a healthy life—delivered at scale for modern commercial spaces.

Local Codes, Real Compliance

We design to California Title 24, CALGreen, the California Mechanical Code (CMC), ASHRAE 62.1/55/90.1, and NFPA 90A, aligning ventilation rates, energy budgets, and comfort targets. Expect permit‑ready documents, plan‑check coordination, and practical details the field team can build and balance.

Industries We Serve

• Offices and coworking: steady IAQ, quiet operation, flexible zoning
• Retail and mixed‑use: odor control, tenant turnover readiness
• Restaurants and kitchens: grease exhaust, make‑up air, hood capture and containment
• Studios and creative spaces: acoustics, heat gain control, fresh air delivery
• Warehouses and light industrial: stratification control, spot exhaust, ventilation rates
• Labs and wellness: directional airflow, filtration, dilution ventilation

Engineering Process You Can Trust

Every project starts with discovery: occupancy profiles, pollutant sources, existing equipment, and envelope conditions. We perform load and ventilation calculations, develop schematic airflow concepts, then refine duct routing, equipment schedules, and control sequences. We also define commissioning and TAB points so performance is measurable and repeatable.

For airflow-critical spaces, we can provision CFD airflow modeling and smoke control coordination where required. The result is a clear, coordinated set—ready for pricing, permitting, and construction.

Factory-Trained Insight

Our engineers are factory‑trained at Fujitsu (Japan), Mitsubishi Elektrik (Thailand), Midea (China), Gree (China), and Hier (China). That insight helps us right‑size fans and coils, tune economizer logic, and integrate DOAS/VRF combinations where appropriate to your program and budget.
