Commercial Chiller Installation in Los Angeles (Air‑Cooled & Water‑Cooled)

Engineered Chiller Installations for Complex Commercial Facilities

When uptime, comfort, and energy performance matter, #1 AC Guys delivers. Our fourth‑generation family business brings 80+ years in engineering to air‑cooled and water‑cooled chiller projects across Los Angeles. We specialize in large, complicated installs for high‑rises, healthcare and labs, data centers, hotels, education, manufacturing, and mixed‑use properties.

We are factory‑trained by Fujitsu (Japan), Mitsubishi Electric (Thailand), Midea (China), Gree (China), and Haier (China). From upfront engineering through commissioning, we build systems that are reliable, efficient, and easy to maintain.

Air‑Cooled vs. Water‑Cooled: What Fits Your Building

• Air‑Cooled Chillers: Faster installs, no cooling tower, lower water use, ideal for roof or grade—strong choice for retrofits and space‑limited sites.
• Water‑Cooled Chillers: Highest efficiency at scale with cooling towers, excellent for large loads and 24/7 facilities; best‑in‑class lifecycle costs when properly maintained.

We design for your load profile, space, acoustics, and energy goals—centrifugal, screw, scroll, and magnetic‑bearing options; heat‑recovery and free‑cooling where feasible.

Our Turnkey Process

• Assessment & Strategy: Site survey, load analysis, sequence of operations, and budget alignment.
• Engineering & Compliance: Hydronic design, pump head calculations, VFD selection, seismic bracing, Title 24 and local permitting documentation.
• Rigging & Installation: Crane planning, pad and housekeeping, piping and valves, strainers, expansion tanks, water treatment, insulation, and vibration isolation.
• Controls & Integration: BAS/BMS integration, sensors, staging, safeties, and remote monitoring for proactive maintenance.
• Commissioning: Factory start‑up coordination, TAB support, operator training, O&M documentation, and performance verification.

Energy, Reliability, and Healthy Air

We prioritize healthy indoor air and productivity with precise temperature and humidity control. Expect optimized part‑load efficiency, smart staging, and demand‑response readiness to help lower operating costs.

We also offer heat‑recovery configurations to reclaim waste heat for reheat or domestic hot water—improving comfort and reducing utility spend.
