Commercial Variable Air Volume (VAV) Box Repair in Orange

Commercial Variable Air Volume (VAV) systems demand more than quick fixes. They require disciplined engineering, accurate measurements, and control logic that matches your building’s sequence of operations. #1 AC Guys brings 4th‑generation expertise and 80+ years of engineering experience to every VAV box repair in Orange, CA—restoring stable temperatures, quiet operation, and energy‑efficient airflow.

What we repair and optimize

• Damper and blade issues: stuck, binding, leaking, or noisy operation
• Actuators: failed motors, linkages, spring return problems, and calibration
• Sensors and controllers: temperature, pressure, flow, and space sensors (drift, wiring, placement)
• Reheat problems: electric/hydronic reheat not engaging, short‑cycling, or overshooting
• Airflow accuracy: k‑factor errors, pitot/flow ring issues, and balancing
• Controls: pneumatic leaks, failing thermostats, DDC/BAS integration, BACnet points mapping
• Comfort and IAQ: hot/cold complaints, drafts, poor ventilation, and noise mitigation

Our diagnostic approach

We start with complaint‑driven interviews and a visual assessment, then verify airflow and temperature with calibrated instruments. We check damper travel, actuator torque, and sensor accuracy; review control sequences; and analyze BAS trends to pinpoint root causes—not just symptoms. After repairs, we balance airflow, validate setpoints, and document performance so facility teams can see measurable results.

Controls expertise you can trust

Whether your building uses legacy pneumatic controls or modern DDC with BACnet, we diagnose logic, tune PID loops, and correct scheduling to match your load profile. We also perform pneumatic‑to‑DDC conversions, optimize ventilation for ASHRAE 62.1 targets, and align sequences with Title 24 expectations for energy savings and code compliance.

We also support Los Angeles County, Ventura County, and Western Riverside County for multi‑site portfolios and specialized projects.

Our process

• Assessment: Interview stakeholders, review complaints and trends
• Testing: Measure airflow, temperatures, pressures; check actuators and sensors
• Repair: Replace or recalibrate actuators and sensors, correct wiring and leaks
• Controls: Tune setpoints/logic, map BAS points, validate alarms
• Balance: Set minimums/maximums, confirm k‑factors, and verify comfort
• Report: Provide documentation, recommendations, and maintenance tips

Proactive maintenance and energy wins

Small VAV issues become big costs. We offer preventative maintenance that catches drift and wear early, updates sequences for seasonal changes, and identifies opportunities for demand reduction. Many buildings see fewer complaints, lower utility spend, and a longer equipment life after optimization.
