University Chiller Plant Services in Calabasas

Universities in Calabasas depend on dependable chilled water for classrooms, labs, residence halls, and event venues. #1 AC Guys designs, modernizes, and maintains commercial university chiller plants that balance uptime, energy performance, acoustics, and indoor air quality. As a 4th‑generation family of engineers with 80+ years in engineering, we approach every central plant like a mission‑critical system—because it is.

What we do for university chiller plants

• Design‑build and retrofits: load profiling, equipment right‑sizing, and hydronic optimization for water‑ and air‑cooled plants.
• Chiller upgrades: high‑efficiency chillers, heat recovery, free cooling strategies, primary‑secondary and variable primary flow.
• Cooling towers and pumps: VFDs, N+1 redundancy, condenser water optimization, and low‑noise solutions for campus settings.
• BAS/BMS integration: sequencing, reset strategies, demand limiting, and analytics for stable Delta‑T and lower kWh/ton.
• Commissioning and retro‑commissioning: verification of controls, sensors, valves, and safeties with documented performance baselines.
• Water treatment and filtration: corrosion control, biocide programs, filtration and side‑stream solutions to protect assets.
• Reliability engineering: vibration analysis, oil/refrigerant testing, leak detection, and predictive maintenance schedules.
• Emergency response: rapid diagnostics, temporary chiller hookups, and parts sourcing through AC PRO to minimize downtime.

Why #1 AC Guys

• 4th‑generation family engineers with 80+ years in engineering, focused on complex commercial systems.
• Factory‑trained by Fujitsu (Japan), Mitsubishi Electric (Thailand), Midea (China), Gree (China), and Haier (China).
• Local AC PRO access for commercial‑grade components, controls, and consumables—faster repairs and shorter outages.
• Campus‑ready safety: hot‑work permits, backgrounded crews, lockout/tagout, confined space readiness, and clear jobsite communication.
• Compliance expertise: Title 24, CALGreen, SCAQMD considerations, seismic restraints, and commissioning documentation.
• Data‑driven outcomes: M&V plans, energy dashboards, and KPI tracking (kW/ton, Delta‑T, WSE hours, and water usage).

AC PRO availability in Calabasas

Downtime costs students and research. Our team leverages the AC PRO distribution network for rapid access to commercial parts, filtration, controls peripherals, valves, and consumables. That means faster turnarounds for maintenance windows, semester breaks, and emergency calls—helping your university chiller plant stay on schedule.

Healthy air for healthy life

Healthy campuses start with healthy air. We align chilled water stability with ventilation and air quality goals through clean coils, correct supply temperatures, and humidity control strategies that support labs, libraries, and lecture halls. Our mission—healthy air for healthy life—shows up in every design decision and service report we deliver.

Built for complex, multi‑building campuses

• Distribution: balance valves, differential pressure control, and smart pump staging for even cooling across campus.
• Controls: chilled water and condenser resets, occupied/unoccupied schedules, and lab‑grade stability where needed.
• Noise and neighbors: tower acoustic treatments and vibration isolation for sensitive academic environments.
• Resilience: N+1 planning, black‑start strategies, and temporary chiller connections for events and heat waves.

Transparent planning and lifecycle results

We begin with a plant assessment and energy model, then present multiple retrofit pathways with lifecycle cost, utility incentives, and phasing that respects the academic calendar. Expect clear drawings, submittals, and commissioning checklists—plus training for facilities teams to keep performance locked in.

Service area

Based in Los Angeles County, we serve Calabasas and nearby communities across Orange County, Ventura County, and Western Riverside County. Whether your central plant is water‑cooled with cooling towers or air‑cooled with modular chillers, our engineers bring campus‑ready expertise to every job.
