How H&W Mechanical Supports School Facilities During the Summer

Summer: The Most Critical Time for School Facility Upgrades

For school facility directors, the summer months are the most important window of opportunity to complete essential maintenance, repairs, and system upgrades. With empty classrooms and reduced foot traffic, it’s the ideal time to tackle projects that can’t happen during the school year.

At H&W Mechanical Services, we specialize in supporting K-12 schools, colleges, and universities throughout the summer to ensure buildings are fully operational, safe, and compliant before students and staff return.

Our Summer Services for Schools

Summer is the perfect time to inspect, repair, or replace outdated HVAC systems. Our team:

• Performs complete inspections of existing systems

• Installs high-efficiency units to reduce long-term operating costs

• Upgrades air filtration for improved indoor air quality

• Balances systems to ensure even cooling across classrooms

Whether it's a full replacement or a strategic tune-up, our HVAC technicians ensure your facility is cool and comfortable for the first day of school.
