As the temperatures climb and the air conditioners hum across the Mid-Atlantic, facility managers are under pressure to keep buildings cool, operations running, and energy costs under control. But what many don’t realize is that mid-season is actually the perfect time to give your HVAC system a boost.

Tate Engineering’s HVAC Preventative Maintenance (PM) Program offers a strategic and timely solution that not only helps you beat the heat but also boosts energy efficiency and lowers your operational costs. In this blog, we’ll break down why mid-season maintenance matters, what energy-saving opportunities it unlocks, and how Tate can help you get the most out of your HVAC investment.

It’s easy to forget that your HVAC system is one of the largest energy consumers in your facility. In commercial buildings, HVAC accounts for up to 40% of total energy usage. During the summer months, that number can climb even higher. 

Most facility teams prioritize PM in the spring, and rightly so. But mid-season is not too late to intervene. In fact, a mid-season tune-up offers a fresh opportunity to fine-tune performance while your equipment is operating at peak demand.

Think of it like a pit stop during a race: your system is already running hard – a quick tune-up ensures it finishes strong.

Tate’s HVAC Preventative Maintenance Programs are tailored to your facility’s equipment, environment, and operational goals.

Our technicians don’t just check boxes – they uncover performance issues and suggest long-term strategies to optimize your system. If replacement parts are needed, we’ll work with you on budget-conscious solutions.

While PM has a cost, the return on investment is clear. Studies show that a well-maintained HVAC system can:
