Your business can't run hot. When the rooftop unit quits on a 90-degree July afternoon, customers leave, work stops, and the repair bill always lands at the worst time. That's the cost of waiting for something to break.

Here in the Piedmont, commercial equipment takes a beating. Long humid summers mean your units run for hours without a rest, pulling moisture out of the air. That run-time wears parts down, clogs condensate drains, and rusts outdoor coils. Skip maintenance and small problems turn into shutdowns.

EM Contractors has kept Mount Gilead businesses, offices, and churches comfortable since 2005. We're a family-owned local crew, not a call center. We check your system before it fails, tell you the honest truth about its condition, and charge a fair price. Scheduled maintenance is the cheapest insurance you can buy for your building.

Common Problems We See

  • A rooftop unit that quit during business hours and cost you a day of work
  • High summer power bills creeping up month after month for the same usage
  • Warm spots, cold spots, and rooms that never feel comfortable for staff or customers
  • Musty smells or sticky humidity from clogged condensate drains and overworked equipment
  • Rust and corrosion forming on outdoor units exposed to Piedmont heat and moisture
  • Surprise breakdowns that always seem to hit on the hottest or coldest day
  • No record of when filters, coils, or belts were last serviced
  • One aging unit limping along while you put off a decision you keep dreading

How EM Contractors Helps

We build a simple maintenance schedule around your building and your equipment. On every visit we clean the coils, change or check filters, flush the condensate drain, test refrigerant levels, tighten and inspect electrical connections, check belts and motors, and run a full performance test. Then we tell you plainly what we found and what, if anything, needs attention. No scare tactics, no upselling parts you don't need. We service rooftop units, split systems, and light-commercial equipment of every major make and model, including the Heil systems we've installed. The goal is straightforward: catch the small stuff early so you never lose a day to a breakdown, keep your power bills in line, and stretch the life of equipment you already paid for.

From Our Techs

Local Tips for Commercial Maintenance

Honest, practical advice from the EM Contractors crew — the same things we'd tell a neighbor.

Flush condensate drains before summer

Long humid Piedmont summers pour water through your condensate lines, and a clogged drain backs up fast, triggers safety switches, and shuts a unit down mid-day. Have us flush the drains every spring, and keep the area around rooftop drain pans clear so water has somewhere to go.

Keep rooftop and ground units clear of grass and debris

Outdoor commercial coils rust and choke on the dust, cottonwood, and grass clippings our working town kicks up. Trim back brush, keep a couple feet clear around every unit, and hose loose debris off the coil fins so the system can shed heat instead of working harder.

Change filters on a calendar, not a guess

Commercial units run for hours in our 90-degree summers, and a dirty filter chokes airflow, spikes your power bill, and ices the coil. Write the change date on the filter, check it monthly during cooling season, and swap it before it loads up rather than after.

FAQ

Commercial Maintenance Questions, Answered

For most local businesses, twice a year is the right rhythm. We service in spring before the long Piedmont cooling season and again in fall before the cold snaps. Buildings with heavy run-times, rooftop units, or restaurant and kitchen loads sometimes need more frequent visits, and we'll tell you honestly if yours does.

We clean the coils, check or change filters, flush the condensate drain, test refrigerant levels, inspect and tighten electrical connections, check belts and motors, and run a full performance test. Then we walk you through what we found in plain language. No surprises and no upselling.

Yes. We handle rooftop packaged units, split systems, and light-commercial equipment for shops, offices, churches, and similar properties. We work on all major makes and models, including the Heil systems we install.

It helps. A unit with clean coils, good airflow, and correct refrigerant runs more efficiently, which keeps power bills in line during our long cooling season. Just as important, catching a worn part early is far cheaper than an emergency repair and a day of lost business.

We do our best to schedule maintenance when it causes the least disruption to your operation. We're a small local crew, so we're responsive and flexible. Tell us your busy times and we'll plan around them.

We can set up a simple seasonal schedule so your visits are planned out and your equipment is ready before each season, or you can call when you need us. Either way, we keep it honest and straightforward, with fair pricing and no long-term pressure.

Call us if you notice longer run times with weaker cooling, water pooling near a unit or inside the building, musty or sticky air, a unit that short-cycles on and off, or a power bill creeping up for the same usage. Those are early signs of a clogged drain, low refrigerant, or a dirty coil. Catching them early is a small fix instead of a hot-afternoon shutdown.

Mostly the number of units, the type of equipment, and how easy they are to reach. A single rooftop package unit takes less time than four split systems spread across a building, and rooftop access adds a bit. We look at your setup first and give you a fair, flat price before we start, so there are no surprises on the invoice.

A single unit usually takes under an hour, and a building with several units takes a few hours. We work cleanly and quietly, and most of it happens at the equipment, not in your customer areas. Tell us your busy windows and we'll plan the visit so your shop, office, or church keeps running while we work.
