Expertise

Indoor Air Quality

At Century, ensuring well-filtered and well-ventilated indoor air is a top priority. Our systems meet or exceed ASHRAE standards, focusing on enhancing building wellness through improved air quality and boosted efficiency.

Ventilation

We design systems that bring in more fresh air from the outside, reducing airborne contaminants and enhancing indoor air quality.

Humidity

We install humidifiers/dehumidifiers to improve comfort and prevent respiratory issues, static electricity, and mold growth.

Filtration

We thoroughly cleaning coils to ensure they're unobstructed. Plus, we fit systems with higher-rated MERV filters like MERV 11 or MERV 13 for efficient air movement and filtration.

Purification

For an added layer of protection, we offer the installation of ionization and irradiation units. These systems effectively remove bacteria, viruses, and other particles from virtually any forced-air system.

Expertise

Sustainability

Efficient HVAC systems make buildings more affordable and comfortable while being eco-friendly.

Proper Ventilation

Proper ventilation improves air quality, reduces moisture problems, and reduces how long your HVAC system needs to run.

System Zoning

Dividing your space into HVAC zones lets you control temperatures separately, using only the energy needed for each zone.

Heat Pump Technology

Heat pumps move heat in or out as needed for heating or cooling a space.

Properly Sealed Ductwork

Sealing ducts reduces energy waste, boosting HVAC efficiency by 20% or more.

LEARN ABOUT AEROSEAL

Variable-speed Systems

Unlike regular HVACs, variable-speed systems adjust speeds for better energy efficiency.

Expertise

Worksite Safety

Safety is our top priority at Century, and we take comprehensive measures to ensure everyone stays safe on the job.

OSHA Training

Each team member holds OSHA certification, with 10 hours of safety training, while forepersons receive an additional 20 hours.

ABC Gold

We've attained Gold status in ABC's STEP Safety Management System, marking us as 655% safer than the industry average.

Site-Specific Planning

We implement tailored Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) programs for each project, addressing unique job site risks and project goals.

Independent Inspections

Our job sites undergo third-party inspections to validate the effectiveness of our safety plans.

Site Supervision

Each project has a dedicated health and safety representative overseeing the safety program.

Accountability

Employees are responsible for complying with Health, Safety, and Environment Management (HSE) standards.

Toolbox Talks

Weekly safety meetings keep our team informed about potential hazards and updates on OSHA regulations.

COVID Protocols

We strictly maintain on-site protocols like providing necessary PPE, hand-sanitizing stations, encouraging social distancing, and minimizing physical contact.

Expertise

Prefabrication

We shift time-consuming building tasks from the job site to our streamlined prefab shop, making installation quicker and simpler. Our in-house assembly slashes waste, boosts system quality, and speeds up delivery.

Saves Time

With in-house assembly, our supply chain gets super efficient. That means a 4-month project might wrap up in just 6 weeks.

Quality Assurance

We're confident our components match our top-notch standards.

Tailor Made

Each piece is crafted precisely to fit your unique needs.

Less Waste

By overseeing the entire fabrication process, we cut waste, save cash, and lessen our environmental impact.

Expertise

Retrofitting

We move slow and expensive building tasks to our prefab shop for quick and easy installation.

Our in-house assembly cuts waste, increases system quality, and speeds delivery. A 4-month job might wrap in 6 weeks.

​​Efficiency

New commercial heating and cooling gear can slash up to 40% of monthly energy costs.

Comfort

A top-notch HVAC system means better indoor air, humidity control, and steadier temps for folks in the building.

ROI

Retrofitting costs less than a whole new system, giving you a return on investment in as little as a year.

Lifespan

Replacing worn parts and making smart upgrades can extend the life of your entire system.

ASHRAE says 75% of buildings leak 10% – 25% of air through ducts.

Signs your ducts might be leaking:

Higher Energy Bills

Leaks increase fan use, but sealing can save energy and cash.

Unhealthy Air Quality

Leaks bring in dust and nasties like viruses, hurting air quality.

Hot and Cold Spots

Uneven airflow? Aeroseal gives better temperature control.

Back-Drafting

Leaks can draw harmful gasses back indoors instead of expelling them.

Expertise
