The Challenge
A prominent tech company in La Mesa approached Jackson & Foster with a pressing issue. Their 10-story office building was experiencing frequent AC breakdowns, causing discomfort for employees and disrupting productivity. The existing system was over 15 years old and struggled to maintain consistent temperatures throughout the building. The client needed a solution that would:

1. Installation of a state-of-the-art variable refrigerant flow (VRF) system
2. Replacement of outdated ductwork
3. Implementation of a smart building management system
4. Regular maintenance plan to ensure optimal performance
The team developed a phased installation approach to minimize disruption to the client’s operations. They worked nights and weekends to complete the project within the agreed timeline.
Implementation
The Jackson & Foster team executed the plan with precision:
1. They began by installing the new VRF system, which allowed for individual temperature control in different zones of the building.
2. Next, they replaced the old ductwork with a more efficient design, improving airflow throughout the structure.
3. The smart building management system was integrated, allowing for remote monitoring and control of the HVAC system.
4. Finally, they conducted thorough testing and commissioning to ensure all components were functioning optimally.
