Sheet Metal Licensed for Custom Ductwork Fabrication

When you’re a small business owner, every dollar counts. A common source of wasted money is inferior ventilation systems and ductwork in light commercial properties. Did you know that as much as 30% of the conditioned air your commercial HVAC system generates gets lost to ductwork inefficiencies? That means that up to 30% of the money you spend to heat and cool your business is wasted. This is partly due to the sub-par craftsmanship of sheet metal ductwork, which can lead to inefficiencies and energy wastage in businesses.

To rectify this, Massachusetts instituted licensing requirements for individuals working with sheet metal. This regulatory step aimed to elevate standards, curb energy squandering, and ensure the delivery of high-quality ductwork to businesses across the state.

At Obie Comfort Solutions, we hold the necessary licensing for sheet metal and ductwork fabrication. We provide comprehensive duct services including upgrading and replacing existing ductwork and installing new ductwork in light commercial properties. We offer high-quality, well-insulated ductwork that will properly heat and cool your business for years to come.

The Importance of Ductwork and Your HVAC System

As ductwork ages, it becomes less efficient. Holes, leaks, and tears can result in the loss of conditioned air. The seamless operation of ductwork hinges upon meticulous design, robust insulation, and an airtight structure. A well-installed ductwork system is not merely a convenience, it’s a wise investment that can yield substantial savings over time.

If you’re concerned about the inefficiency of your business’s ductwork system, our sheet metal professionals can upgrade it. We offer an upfront estimate and guarantee our superior craftsmanship. We also offer financing options to help you finance ductwork services.

Why EPA and NATE Certifications Matter for Commercial HVAC

When you’re deciding which local contractor to hire for your commercial HVAC services, choose the team of experts who hold certifications from the EPA and NATE. That’s us! With our advanced certifications, you can rest assured that we are highly trained and ready to pass on our knowledge about commercial HVAC systems. Not only that, but our continued certification training requires our Obie Service Technicians to stay abreast of the latest innovations in commercial HVAC services.

What Is EPA Certification?

EPA stands for the Environmental Protection Agency and this certification has to do with the environment and adherence to eco-friendly HVAC practices. To become EPA-certified, a technician must demonstrate knowledge about the laws, rules, and regulations surrounding the use and handling of HVAC chemicals such as refrigerants and ozone-depleting chemicals.

What Is NATE Certification?

NATE stands for North American Technician Excellence. NATE is the largest non-profit heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration (HVACR) organization in the US. When you hire a contractor who is NATE-certified, you can feel confident that you are working with someone who is highly trained and experienced. Continued NATE certification requires additional training and continuing education. This means that our technicians stay abreast of commercial HVAC technology and possess a demonstrated knowledge of today’s HVAC systems.

With the needs of small business owners first and foremost, we are dedicated to ensuring a seamless and stress-free journey toward a better-performing commercial HVAC system.

We can help local business owners take advantage of financial incentives at the state and national level to help pay for upgrades to energy-efficient HVAC equipment such as heat pumps. When you work with Obie Comfort Solutions, you’re working with a full-service department that handles everything for you from Mass Save® paperwork to equipment registrations.

Don’t Jeopardize Commercial HVAC Equipment With Amateur Service

We know that as a small business owner, the temptation to go with a well-meaning relative or a local amateur who isn’t familiar with commercial HVAC equipment can be tempting. However, doing so will almost always involve paying more in the long run.

Sup-par HVAC service that isn’t performed by highly trained technicians involves many risks. The first is that it will void the warranty on a brand-new system installation. Warranties for commercial HVAC equipment will only apply to systems that are professionally installed by licensed and insured contractors.

That means if there’s a problem with the installation job that was done by someone who didn’t know what they were doing, you run the risk of your new system not being covered and having to pay out of pocket for repairs right from the start. That’s an expense that no small business owner can afford. That’s why it pays to choose a professional HVAC contractor with experience in light commercial HVAC installations.

In addition to installations, even a repair or tune-up attempt by someone unqualified poses a risk to your commercial space’s occupants and customers. You also run the risk of incurring additional damage to the HVAC system. Only licensed and experienced professionals like our Obie Service Technicians should attempt to repair or maintain a light commercial HVAC system.
