Commercial HVAC Services for TV Broadcasting Studios

As a leader at a busy NYC TV broadcasting studio, you’ve got plenty to worry about. From production schedules to getting the perfect shot to keeping costs within budget, you have more than enough to keep your days full. At the same time, there are many components to your studio which likely fall out of your areas of expertise, one of those being your studio’s commercial HVAC system. To ensure you can focus on the things that truly matter, you can trust us to handle all the HVAC needs of your broadcast studio.

Time is of the Essence

Broadcasting studios like yours are always busy. More than being busy, though, they are always on strict time deadlines which must be met. You’ve got talent, many of whom may have contractual obligations elsewhere, you’ve got crew, whose hourly pay isn’t getting any cheaper, and you’ve got network expectations that are basically immovable. Any interruption in the schedule is likely to cost you immensely in both money and prestige. That’s why our commercial HVAC services are ready to come to you on a moment’s notice to provide you with the service you need to get back up and running.

We understand that, without the commercial AC systems your building utilizes, shooting can’t continue. Not that it shouldn’t continue but you press on anyway, but that it can’t continue due to serious safety concerns. With a multitude of hot-running lights and equipment, body heat from cast, crew, and audience, plus large spaces that aren’t always the most well-insulated, any interruption in air conditioning services will necessitate immediate stoppage and likely evacuation from the building. When we arrive, we’ll put our best efforts toward fixing your system’s problems as soon as possible.

One reason we’re able to work so quickly is the multitude of experience our technicians possess. In the case of complex commercial AC systems, there are literally hundreds of components, any one of which could be causing the problem. Our training and experience help ensure that we’re able to find and fix the problem quickly and completely. After all, the only thing worse than being delayed because of a broken air conditioner is having to be delayed again because the system wasn’t repaired correctly the first time.

See What Our Customers Say

Rugged and Quiet

Of course, sometimes a broken HVAC system truly is broken and will need to be replaced. If that’s the case, our experience and attention-to-detail will ensure you get exactly the system you need to help your studio continue to find success. We understand that an HVAC system in a TV studio has to be whisper quiet to avoid being detected by the microphones.

Part of this silence for broadcasting studios is due to a well-maintained system. The other aspect, however, is how the system is routed throughout the building. If air is routed incorrectly, it could create unnecessary noise as it’s pushed through the ductwork. That’s why we perform a thorough inspection on all parts of your system to ensure it’s operating as efficiently and quietly as possible. Plus, we only use the most rugged and durable components to ensure you won’t experience further disruptions to your air conditioning services for a long time to come.

Frequently Asked Questions About Commercial HVAC for TV Broadcasting Studios

Let’s talk

HVAC systems in TV broadcasting studios are designed to maintain temperature, humidity, and air quality levels that ensure both the comfort of personnel and the proper functioning of sensitive equipment. They must be precisely controlled to manage the heat generated by studio lighting and electronic devices.

Design considerations account for spatial function, floor-to-ceiling height, and the impact of audience presence. A properly designed HVAC system for a broadcasting studio will ensure a quiet yet efficient airflow that aligns with the studio's structural challenges.

To ensure comfort and air quality, studios employ HVAC systems with high-quality air filters and variable-frequency drives (VFDs) that reduce noise levels and maintain consistent airflow, preventing interruptions in the broadcast.

Equipment such as silencers, fan-coil systems, and ductwork with acoustical lining enhance an HVAC system’s performance. They ensure quiet operation critical for broadcasting without compromising the reliability and efficiency of thermal management.

HVAC systems for live-audience studios must accommodate the additional heat and cooling load from both the audience and the lighting grid while maintaining a comfortable environment without noise intrusion.

Maintenance strategies include regular cleaning, inspection, and assessment of all HVAC components to ensure efficient operation and energy efficiency, which is the responsibility of HVAC professionals.

Innovation in HVAC for studios includes building automation systems, direct digital control (DDC), and smart technologies that provide active control over mechanical and electrical systems, thereby optimizing indoor air quality and energy usage.

Noise control is achieved through slow-speed airflow, silencers, and acoustically lined mechanical rooms. These elements are critical for minimizing the noise level from HVAC systems during broadcasting.

Principles such as convection, diffusion, and the proper placement of air distribution elements like tapered linear diffusers and fully perforated duct/diffuser combinations ensure the right balance of comfort and efficiency in air distribution.

Broadcast studio HVAC systems adhere to safety and environmental regulations that govern air quality, refrigerant management, and system redundancy to ensure life safety and regulatory compliance.

Project management is vital to ensure that HVAC systems implementation aligns with the specific needs of broadcasting studios, considering the complexity of integrating the HVAC with existing mechanical and electrical rooms.

Challenges include managing the thermal energy from studio lighting and equipment while keeping noise at a minimum. Solutions encompass employing HVAC systems with high CFM ratings, specialized evaporators, and heat exchange components, provided by commercial air conditioning technicians.
