Rooftop units, makeup air, split systems, and kitchen ventilation — installed, serviced, and balanced by SBM. Keeping restaurants, hospitals, and large facilities across Western New York at the right temperature and the right pressure.
Restaurants and large facilities don't behave like houses. A 14-ton RTU sitting over a kitchen with 4,000 CFM of exhaust needs makeup air, controls, and a balance plan that residential techs simply aren't trained for. SBM works on commercial systems every day — that's the whole business.
If your kitchen is hot, smoky, or pulling air from the dining room when the hoods kick on, the system is unbalanced. We measure actual exhaust and supply CFM, compare it to design, and adjust hoods, MUA units, and dampers until the kitchen runs at the slight negative the code wants — usually around 0.02 to 0.05 inches of water column.
Lake-effect humidity in summer, sub-zero stretches in winter, and salt-laden air the rest of the year. We spec equipment for the climate, schedule the right PM cadence, and protect rooftop units with the right curbs, hail guards, and corrosion coatings.
Yes — install, replacement, and seasonal service on commercial RTUs from all major manufacturers, including makeup-air units feeding commercial kitchens.
That's almost always a makeup-air or hood-balance problem. We measure exhaust CFM against MUA CFM, rebalance the system, and adjust controls so the kitchen runs at the correct slight negative without starving the dining room.
Yes. Quarterly and bi-annual PM plans for restaurants, hospitals, schools, and multi-tenant facilities. Filter changes, coil cleaning, belt and refrigerant checks, and full reports each visit.
Same-day in most of Western New York during business hours, and emergency response for restaurants and healthcare clients on contract.
Yes — EPA 608 certified technicians for all commercial refrigerants, including the new low-GWP A2L systems.
