DENVER, CO
Commercial HVAC tenant improvement contractor in Denver
LOCAL MARKET
Tenant improvement HVAC across metro Denver
Denver’s altitude affects equipment performance, and gas-fired equipment and fans are selected with it in mind. Winters are cold, summers are hot and dry, and systems need to handle both.
Cannabis cultivation facilities are a distinct part of the market, with heavy dehumidification and cooling loads created by grow lighting and plant transpiration.
Converted historic buildings in LoDo and RiNo often limit where new equipment and duct can go.
Areas we serve around Denver
- Downtown and LoDo
- RiNo and the River North District
- Cherry Creek
- Denver Tech Center
- Lakewood and the West Corridor

WHAT WE BUILD OUT
Build-out work we take on in Denver
Office and corporate suites
Zoning a floor plan so perimeter offices, interior open areas and conference rooms each get the air they need, with VAV boxes, diffuser layout and controls tied to the building system.
Grow, processing and production
Dehumidification and cooling sized for grow-light heat and transpiration, tight humidity control, and odor-control exhaust and filtration for processing rooms.
Restaurants and food service
Kitchen hood exhaust, makeup air matched to it, dining-room cooling sized for the heat the cook line throws, and restroom and dish exhaust that keeps odors where they belong.
Retail and in-line space
A dedicated rooftop or split system for the suite, ductwork laid out to the store plan, and outside air and exhaust set for the occupant load the space is permitted for.
Medical and dental clinics
Higher air change rates and pressure relationships in procedure and sterilization rooms, dedicated exhaust where the occupancy requires it, and filtration a step above office standard.
Industrial, flex and warehouse office
Conditioned office cores inside warehouse shells, make-up air and exhaust for process areas, destratification and unit heaters, and spot cooling where people work.

PERMITS AND CODE
Permits, code and climate in Denver
The City and County of Denver runs its own permitting, as do Aurora, Lakewood and the other metro cities, each adopting the mechanical and energy codes with local amendments.
Equipment is selected for Denver’s altitude, which affects combustion and airflow performance.
Cultivation facilities need dehumidification sized for the grow load, not just cooling.
What we confirm before pricing in Denver
- Denver or a surrounding jurisdiction
- Altitude adjustments for equipment
- Dehumidification loads for cultivation
- Equipment space in historic buildings
- Energy code requirements
- Current review and inspection lead times
