High-Output Heating and Cooling Solutions

Boiler, chiller, and geothermal system installation and service in Houma and surrounding areas.

Large commercial buildings and industrial facilities in Houma often require boilers for steam production, chillers for process cooling, or geothermal systems for stable year-round climate control. These systems handle greater thermal loads than standard HVAC equipment and demand precise sizing, installation, and ongoing monitoring to maintain efficiency and avoid costly downtime.

Coastal Mechanical Contractors, Inc installs and services boilers, chillers, and geothermal heating and cooling systems for commercial and industrial properties throughout Houma. Services include system sizing and design for efficiency, maintenance and performance monitoring, and long-term reliability planning focused on energy savings. Technicians work with both new installations and existing systems that need upgrades or component replacements.

If you manage a facility in Houma that relies on high-output heating or cooling and need to plan a system upgrade or address performance issues, learn more about your options by contacting us.

What makes these systems different from standard HVAC

Boilers generate steam or hot water for heating, industrial processes, or hydronic systems, while chillers produce chilled water for large-scale cooling applications such as data centers or manufacturing floors. Geothermal systems use underground loop fields to exchange heat with the earth, providing stable heating and cooling without relying on outdoor air temperature. Installation in Houma includes soil testing for geothermal loops, piping connections for hydronic systems, and electrical controls for automated operation.

After installation, you notice consistent temperature control across large spaces, reduced energy consumption compared to conventional systems, and quieter operation with fewer outdoor units. Geothermal systems eliminate the need for rooftop chillers or noisy condensers, and boilers deliver heat more evenly than forced-air systems.

Maintenance visits include water quality testing for boilers, refrigerant checks for chillers, and loop pressure testing for geothermal systems. Technicians monitor combustion efficiency, inspect heat exchangers, and verify that pumps and controls operate within design parameters. Regular service prevents scale buildup, refrigerant leaks, and pump failures that disrupt facility operations.

Questions facility managers ask before installation

Commercial and industrial clients in Houma often want to know how these systems are sized, what maintenance they require, and how long installation takes for new construction or retrofits.

How is a boiler or chiller system sized for a commercial building?
Sizing depends on heating or cooling load calculations, building square footage, insulation values, occupancy levels, and process requirements. Technicians review architectural plans and conduct onsite assessments to determine the correct capacity.
What are the advantages of geothermal systems in Houma?
Geothermal systems use stable underground temperatures to deliver consistent heating and cooling with lower energy consumption than air-source equipment. They work well in areas with limited rooftop space or noise restrictions.
How often do boilers need maintenance?
Commercial boilers benefit from annual inspections that include water treatment checks, combustion analysis, and heat exchanger cleaning. Facilities with high usage may require more frequent service to maintain efficiency and prevent downtime.
What causes a chiller to lose efficiency over time?
Chillers lose efficiency when refrigerant levels drop, condenser coils accumulate dirt, or water flow becomes restricted by scale buildup. Regular cleaning, refrigerant monitoring, and water treatment restore performance and reduce operating costs.
When should a facility replace an aging boiler or chiller?
Replacement makes sense when repair costs increase, efficiency drops significantly, or equipment no longer meets current emission standards. Newer systems often pay for themselves through energy savings and reduced maintenance over time.

Whether you need a geothermal system installed for a Houma office building or ongoing maintenance for an existing boiler or chiller, Coastal Mechanical Contractors, Inc provides design, installation, and performance monitoring tailored to commercial and industrial applications.
