We put together a quick list of the main differences between most residential and commercial HVAC systems:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Equipment Needed<\/strong> &#8211; Generally, a residential unit has two components: indoor and outdoor. In contrast, a commercial HVAC unit can have a range of different equipment such as dampers, blowers, and multiple thermostats; these work together to alter the temperature of different zones in a commercial setting.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Power Consumption<\/strong> &#8211; A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/commercial-heating-cooling-tips\/\">commercial heating and cooling<\/a> system will use a great deal more power than its residential counterpart. While size is a big factor here, other aspects such as peak usage times can greatly influence power consumption. Square footage is another factor that eats up power, generally, the lower the square footage, the less power a system will use.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Drainage Requirements<\/strong> &#8211; Drainage for a residential unit usually consists of a single pan placed near the system to collect condensation runoff. This is not the case for commercial HVAC systems, which require significantly more complex drainage systems to accommodate larger instances of evaporation and condensation.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Maintenance Requirements<\/strong> &#8211; Generally, residential HVAC units are easy to maintain. They need limited maintenance, which consists of changing filters and a yearly checkup. A commercial system requires more attention due the complex nature of its systems and the physical size of the unit. Unsurprisingly, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/commercial-hvac.html\">commercial HVAC<\/a> units cost a good deal more to maintain compared to residential units.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/difference-between-residential-commercial-hvac-2.jpg\" alt=\"Commercial HVAC Systems\" width=\"600\" height=\"234\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8264\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/difference-between-residential-commercial-hvac-2.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/difference-between-residential-commercial-hvac-2-300x117.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Speak_with_an_HVAC_Contractor_to_Determine_the_Best_System_for_You\"><\/span>Speak with an HVAC Contractor to Determine the Best System for You<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Sometimes it is obvious what type of HVAC system will work best for you.
