Heating Basics For Commercial Facilities in Ottawa

Commercial heating in Ottawa operates the same as a residential heating system, with the goal of keeping the facility at a comfortable temperature with humidity around 50%. The cooling part of the system extracts hot air from outside and cools it through a refrigeration system. Proper ventilation is also necessary to prevent too much CO2 from entering the air inside. A properly maintained and updated system will allow each room to feel the same and ensure proper air circulation. Climate Works Heating, Cooling & Plumbing offers a variety of commercial heating systems in Ottawa, such as Oil or Gas Steam, Oil or Gas Water, and Heat Pump Systems.

Steam is outdated, slow, and not the most efficient way to heat commercial buildings, while Water is more efficient and requires a backup heat source when temperatures get too cold. Heat Pump Systems are the most efficient way to heat commercial operations, but require a backup heat source when temperatures get too cold.
