Calabasas Commercial University Chiller Plant Services

Your campus depends on chilled water—labs, classrooms, residences, athletics, and events all need dependable cooling and clean indoor air. #1 AC Guys brings deep commercial central plant expertise to Calabasas universities and academic institutions, with an engineering-first approach that cuts lifecycle costs while elevating performance and IAQ.

Design-Build and Retrofits for Central Utility Plants

From right-sizing air- and water-cooled chillers to optimizing cooling towers, pumps, and distribution, we design and modernize commercial university chiller plants that fit your load profile today—and scale for tomorrow. We deliver clear scopes, accurate budgets, and phased execution to keep campus operations running.

Calabasas-Focused Energy Efficiency and Title 24 Compliance

Our upgrades align with California Title 24, campus standards, and sustainability targets. Expect strategies like variable primary flow, VFDs on pumps and tower fans, waterside economizers where feasible, condenser water optimization, and high-efficiency magnetic bearing or oil-free chillers to maximize kW/ton and reduce demand charges.

BAS Integration and Advanced Controls

We integrate with your Building Automation System to deliver stable supply temperatures, smart staging, and demand-limiting during peak periods. Our control sequences focus on reliability first, then energy optimization—so your plant stays resilient while saving energy. We document sequences of operation and provide operator training for seamless adoption.

Commissioning, Re-Commissioning, and Continuous Optimization

Commissioning verifies that every component—chillers, towers, pumps, valves, VFDs, sensors—performs to spec. Our re-commissioning services uncover drift and inefficiencies, restoring design intent and often paying for themselves through energy savings. We validate delta-T, flow balance, and setpoints for real-world campus conditions.

Water-Side and Air-Side Expertise

We manage the details that matter: condenser water quality, tower approach, chilled water differential pressure, coil performance, and distribution balancing. Properly tuned hydronics and clean heat exchange surfaces mean lower lift, improved capacity, and better indoor air quality across your buildings.

Preventive Maintenance and Reliability Planning

Our maintenance programs for university chiller plants include seasonal start-ups and shutdowns, oil analysis (when applicable), tube cleaning, vibration checks, refrigerant charge verification, and controls calibration. We create asset plans that prioritize risk, budget visibility, and lifecycle extension—reducing unplanned downtime.

Safety, Compliance, and Documentation

We deliver code-compliant installations with complete submittals, O&M manuals, and training. Our team understands California requirements, seismic anchorage needs, and local AHJ processes within Los Angeles County and surrounding regions. You get transparent QA/QC and closeout documentation your facilities team can trust.

Manufacturer-Trained, Multi-Brand Proficiency

Our engineers are factory-trained by Fujitsu (Japan), Mitsubishi Electric (Thailand), Midea (China), Gree (China), and Haier (China). That breadth helps us evaluate equipment options objectively and service diverse plant configurations—with an emphasis on reliability, parts availability, and long-term serviceability.

Large, Complex Projects—Handled with Care

We specialize in large and complex commercial projects, including central plant replacements, capacity expansions, and complex phasing around live campus operations. Our team sequences work to minimize disruptions, maintains safety zones, and communicates clearly with facilities and stakeholders.

Sustainability, Funding, and Reporting

We help identify utility incentives, craft energy models, and quantify savings that support funding approvals. Whether you’re targeting greenhouse gas reductions or LEED goals, we translate sustainability into actionable plant strategies with measurable results and facility-friendly reporting.
