Tenant improvement HVAC across South Florida

In South Florida, humidity is the constant. Systems must remove moisture reliably or buildings develop comfort and mold problems, and equipment sizing and controls matter more than raw cooling capacity.

Salt air is hard on outdoor equipment, especially near the coast, so coil protection and equipment selection affect how long systems last.

Hurricane season brings requirements for how rooftop equipment is secured, and permitting is split between cities and counties.

WHAT WE BUILD OUT

Build-out work we take on in South Florida

The tenant improvement work we most often carry across South Florida.

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.

Hotel and hospitality

Guest-room units, corridor pressurization, kitchen and laundry exhaust, and ballroom and meeting-space systems sized for the full crowd rather than the average day.

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.
