Commercial & Industrial Exhaust Systems in Calabasas

At #1 AC Guys, our mission is healthy air for healthier lives—and that extends to the safety and performance of your commercial and industrial spaces in Calabasas. We approach exhaust not as a commodity, but as a critical engineering system that must manage contaminants, heat, grease, fumes, and smoke while maintaining comfort and energy efficiency.

What we design, install, and service

• Commercial kitchen exhaust: Type I/II hoods, grease ducts, UL‑rated fans, fire suppression integration, and code‑driven clearances per NFPA 96.
• Make‑up air systems: Tempered and untempered MUA, proper pressurization, and demand‑based control to balance exhaust and prevent negative pressure.
• Process and lab exhaust: Fume hoods, corrosive or high‑temperature exhaust, FRP/PVC duct options, and spark‑resistant fans where required.
• Parking garage ventilation: CO/NO2 sensor networks, demand‑control ventilation, and VFD fan arrays for safety and energy savings.
• General industrial ventilation: Heat and smoke relief, dust capture support, localized source capture, and dilution ventilation strategies.
• Retrofits and upgrades: Replacing undersized fans, adding ERV/heat reclaim, sealing ducts, and optimizing controls for lower operating costs.

We source AC PRO‑supplied components, fans, filtration, controls, and duct materials to fast‑track procurement and maintain high performance standards. Our engineering‑first process ensures airflow is calculated, balanced, and verified—never guessed.

Engineering pedigree you can trust

We are a 4th‑generation family of engineers with 80+ years of engineering experience. Our team has trained at the manufacturing plants of Fujitsu (Japan), Mitsubishi Electric (Thailand), Midea (China), Gree (China), and Haier (China). That factory‑level rigor informs our approach to exhaust, ventilation, and controls integration across complex commercial and industrial environments.

Compliance, safety, and performance

• California Mechanical Code (CMC) and Title 24 energy compliance.
• NFPA 96 for commercial kitchen exhaust and grease‑laden vapor removal.
• Local Calabasas and Los Angeles County permitting requirements, inspections, and commissioning documentation.
• Air filtration and capture efficiency strategies to support indoor air quality (IAQ) and employee well‑being.

We coordinate closely with GCs, architects, fire authorities, and building officials to keep your project moving smoothly from submittals through final approval.

Our process

• Site assessment and airflow modeling: Capture loads, heat/fume sources, duct routes, shaft constraints, and discharge locations.
• Design and equipment selection: Right‑size fans, specify duct materials, add MUA, and integrate smart controls and VFDs.
• Permitting and fabrication: Submittals, stamped drawings (as required), and precise duct/fan fabrication to spec.
• Installation and integration: Safe rigging, tight ductwork, grease/fire clearance detailing, and control wiring.
• Testing, Adjusting, Balancing (TAB): Verify CFM, static pressure, pressurization, and capture velocities—documented for turnover.
• Training and maintenance: Operator training, filter/grease management, and proactive service plans to protect uptime.
