Commercial Chiller Maintenance in Glendale, CA

What’s included in professional chiller maintenance

Our commercial chiller maintenance in Glendale is engineered to reduce risk, lower kWh per ton, and protect your capital equipment. Each visit follows a detailed, repeatable procedure tailored to your asset list, site conditions, and operational priorities.

• Performance baseline: entering/leaving water temps, condenser approach, ambient, delta‑T, flow verification, and kW per ton to trend efficiency.
• Refrigeration circuit: superheat/subcooling checks, leak inspection, sight glass condition, filter-drier assessment, oil level/quality observations, and component integrity.
• Electrical system: terminal torque, contactor/relay condition, megger tests where applicable, VFD checks, sensor calibration, and control logic verification.
• Mechanical system: compressor health, bearings and vibration, belts and couplings, piping supports, insulation condition, and drain pan hygiene.
• Water-side care: condenser/evaporator inspection, tube fouling assessment, brushing/descaling as needed, cooling tower checks, and water treatment coordination.
• BAS and controls: setpoints, schedules, resets, alarms, trend logs, and staging optimization for part-load efficiency.
• Safety and compliance: refrigerant recordkeeping, EPA requirements, local code alignment (including California Title 24 considerations), and lockout/tagout procedures.
• Reporting and recommendations: prioritized actions, lifecycle planning, and budget-ready estimates—delivered with clear data and photos.

This disciplined approach helps catch small deviations before they become unplanned downtime, keeping your Glendale operations safe, comfortable, and productive.

Predictive care and energy optimization

Beyond routine PM, we apply predictive strategies to protect uptime and control costs.
• Trend analysis: We monitor key performance indicators to spot efficiency drift before it impacts tenants or processes.
• Vibration, thermal, and electrical checks: Identify imbalance, hot spots, and electrical stress that shorten equipment life.
• Water treatment coordination: We align maintenance with chemical programs to minimize scale, corrosion, and biofilm—critical for condenser performance.
• Control optimization: Staging, condenser fan strategies, reset schedules, and VFD tuning to unlock part‑load savings.
• Seasonal readiness: Start-up/shutdown procedures that protect compressors and water-side components.

These measures consistently improve reliability and can materially reduce energy intensity, especially during Glendale’s hot, dry months.
