Your lease says inspect and clean the AC every six months. We put it on the calendar and do it.
The twice-a-year inspect and clean your commercial lease requires, on a schedule we track, documented for your lease file. Call (214) 676-0357.
Most commercial leases put HVAC maintenance on the tenant, usually an inspect-and-clean twice a year. Miss it and you're on the hook twice: once when the unit quits, and again when the landlord asks for service records you don't have.
Flag what we find before it turns into a dead compressor in July
Leave you a dated, line-item record for your lease file
That's it. No contract language you need a lawyer for.
Why it slides, and what it costs you
Nobody gets excited about maintenance. It's a clause on page 14 of the lease, and you've got an actual job to do. So it slides.
Then the unit on the roof quits on a 105° afternoon, you're paying for a repair instead of a checkup, and the landlord wants to know when it was last serviced. A lot of the older DFW stock we work in has rooftop units well past their easy years. They give you warning signs. Somebody has to be up there to see them.
In it for the long haul
We're not a maintenance company that hands you off when something breaks. Same number, same crew, for the big three: HVAC, electrical, and plumbing. If the inspection turns something up, you already know who's fixing it. And if it's already down, we handle the repair too.
No surprise billing.
Any work beyond the original quote gets approved by you, in writing, before we start. And you get a line-item invoice you can hand straight to your landlord.
HVAC Maintenance: common questions
How often should a commercial HVAC system be serviced?+
Twice a year for most commercial tenants. That is the interval written into most commercial leases: an inspect-and-clean every six months, usually before cooling season and before heating season. Your lease is the final word on the interval and on who has to arrange it, so read the HVAC clause. We put the schedule on the calendar and track it so it does not slide.
What should be included in a commercial HVAC maintenance visit?+
Four things: we inspect the rooftop unit or split system, clean it, flag what we find before it turns into a dead compressor in July, and leave you a dated, line-item record for your lease file. The record matters as much as the wrench work. It is what you hand the landlord when they ask when the unit was last serviced.
Is a commercial HVAC maintenance plan worth it?+
It is the difference between paying for a checkup and paying for a repair. Nobody gets excited about maintenance. It is a clause on page 14 of the lease and you have an actual job to do, so it slides. Then the unit quits on a 105° afternoon, and the landlord wants service records you do not have. A lot of the older DFW stock we work in has rooftop units well past their easy years. They give you warning signs, but somebody has to be up there to see them.
How much does commercial HVAC maintenance cost?+
We quote it per building after we see the equipment. The number depends on how many units are on the roof, what condition they are in, and how much access the building gives us, which is why we do not publish a flat rate or a per-hour figure. Call and we will come look, then send a written quote. Any work beyond the original quote gets approved by you, in writing, before we start.
Who is responsible for HVAC maintenance under a triple-net lease?+
Usually the tenant. Under a typical Texas triple-net lease the landlord has the roof and the building envelope, and everything under it, including the HVAC serving your space, is yours to maintain. That normally covers the scheduled maintenance, not just the repair when it breaks. Check your lease for the specific language, and keep the line-item records either way so a CAM conversation is easier.
