Commercial HVAC installation
Waywest Mechanical Service Ltd., Waywest's service division, installs and maintains commercial HVAC systems for businesses from Nanaimo to Campbell River. Whether a building needs ductless split systems installed, a rooftop air conditioning or heating unit serviced, or a boiler replaced, we plan the work around the business so it keeps operating.
For new systems, we look at the building's real loads, the ventilation it needs and how the space is used, and we fabricate custom ductwork in our own sheet metal shop so the installation fits the building.
Equipment and systems
- Rooftop units — heating, cooling and ventilation for retail, office and restaurant buildings
- Ductless and split systems — offices, server rooms and zones the main system does not serve
- Variable refrigerant flow — zoned comfort in multi-tenant and office buildings
- Chilled water systems — larger commercial and industrial cooling
- Commercial boilers and heating — hydronic, warehouse and unit heaters
- Ventilation, make-up air and heat recovery
- Geothermal and hydronic options for facilities looking for lower operating costs
24/7 emergency HVAC repair
Time is money, and a failed rooftop unit or boiler costs a business every hour it is down. Waywest's 24/7 line at 250-616-1446 handles commercial heating and cooling emergencies, answered by our own technicians.
Maintenance that prevents downtime
Scheduled commercial HVAC maintenance — coils, belts, filters, refrigerant checks, burners and controls — is far cheaper than an emergency in a heat wave or cold snap. WayWest PropertyCare keeps commercial equipment on a schedule, with a technician report after every visit.
