Historic and older commercial buildings add charm and character to a neighborhood, but their heating and cooling systems often struggle to keep up. Outdated equipment, leaky ducts, and poor insulation can lead to high energy costs and uncomfortable indoor conditions.

AirBoss Heating & Air specializes in upgrading HVAC systems for older properties—improving efficiency while protecting architectural details.

Challenges of Aging HVAC Systems

  • High Energy Bills-Old equipment uses more power and lacks modern efficiency.

  • Poor Airflow and Uneven Temperatures-Ducts may be undersized, leaky, or poorly placed.

  • Frequent Breakdowns-Worn-out components lead to costly repairs and unexpected downtime.

  • Limited Space for Modern Equipment-Retrofitting newer systems often requires creative design.

Smart Upgrade Options

  • High-Efficiency Heating and Cooling Units-ENERGY STAR® equipment reduces energy use and qualifies for rebates.

  • Ductless Mini-Splits-Perfect for buildings where traditional ductwork won’t fit or would disturb historic interiors.

  • Zoning and Smart Controls-Improve comfort and reduce waste by customizing temperature for different areas.

  • Duct Sealing and Insulation-Improves airflow and lowers energy costs.
