Commercial Hospital & Lab Ventilation in Long Beach

Hospitals and laboratories demand ventilation that protects people and processes every hour of every day. In Long Beach, #1 AC Guys designs, installs, and maintains commercial hospital and lab ventilation systems that control pressure, drive proper air changes, capture contaminants, and stabilize temperature and humidity—without sacrificing energy performance or uptime.

Why specialized ventilation matters

Healthcare and lab spaces operate under strict airflow and pressurization rules to prevent cross‑contamination. Isolation rooms need dependable negative pressure; operating and clean spaces require stable positive pressure; labs must exhaust hazardous fumes safely and consistently. Filtration, dilution, and directional airflow work together to reduce risk and protect outcomes.

What we deliver in Long Beach

• Design‑build and plan‑spec ventilation for hospitals, medical offices, clinics, universities, and research labs
• Integration of AC PRO air handlers, fan arrays, ERVs, filtration racks, and accessories to meet project requirements and lead times
• Isolation rooms (AIIR/PE), pressure regimes, anterooms, and pressure monitoring
• High‑efficiency filtration: MERV 13+ and terminal HEPA solutions
• Laboratory exhaust: fume hoods, general lab exhaust, manifolded stacks, dilution strategies
• Dedicated outdoor air systems (DOAS), energy recovery, and demand‑based ventilation
• Cleanroom and procedure spaces with controlled air changes, temperature, and humidity
• Smart controls, BMS integration (BACnet), IAQ sensors (CO2, VOC, PM), and alarm logic
• Commissioning, testing, adjusting and balancing (TAB), pressure mapping, and validation
• Lifecycle service, performance tuning, and operator training

Engineered for compliance and performance

Our designs align with commonly referenced standards and codes, including ASHRAE 170 for healthcare ventilation, ANSI/AIHA Z9.5 for laboratories, the California Mechanical Code, and Title 24 energy requirements. For hospital environments, we coordinate with applicable authority requirements and documentation workflows. We provide clear sequences of operation, resilience strategies (including N+1 where required), and submittals tailored for smooth approvals and predictable performance.

AC PRO integration without compromise

We specify and integrate AC PRO ventilation equipment and components to deliver dependable airflow, filtration, and energy recovery. From air handlers and fan arrays to ERV cores and filtration modules, AC PRO solutions help us meet airflow, acoustical, and efficiency targets while staying on schedule. Our team designs around maintainability—filter access, coil cleanability, and safe service clearances—so your facility operates smoothly day after day.

Our engineering pedigree

#1 AC Guys is a fourth‑generation family business with 80+ years in engineering. Our engineers have factory training from Fujitsu (Japan), Mitsubishi Elektrik (Thailand), Midea (China), Gree (China), and Hier (China). We are built for large and complex projects where details matter—healthcare campuses, specialty clinics, university labs, and research facilities. Our mission is healthy air for healthy lives, delivered through disciplined design, careful installation, and rigorous commissioning.

Proven process for critical spaces

• Assessment & planning: room program review, risk and airflow strategy, load and ACH calculations
• Design & submittals: equipment schedules, duct/pipe layouts, control sequences, and pressure setpoints
• Installation: clean build practices, infection control risk procedures, and documented QA/QC
• Controls & IAQ: BMS integration, trend logs, sensor placement, alarms, and visibility
• Commissioning & TAB: verify air changes, pressure differentials, compliance targets, and functionality
• Validation & handoff: documentation, training, and planned maintenance roadmap
