Our Mechanical Plumbing Process 

When it comes to commercial plumbing, there is no one size fits all. Every facility is different in terms of design and operation, so its needs naturally differ as well. While the process stays similar, our custom approach is tailored to specific needs to ensure your facility is safe, efficient, and compliant with industry-specific standards.

  • Design and Layout: We assess the schematics of your facility to design custom piping and fittings for water and waste.
  • Installation and Integration: Our team installs and connects water heaters and softeners, boilers, pumps, chillers, and other components in accordance with building codes and integrates piping with HVAC systems to ensure climate-controlled comfort.
  • Compliance: Every system is designed and installed to comply with safety codes and regulations at every level.
  • Maintenance and Repair: We’ll perform routine maintenance and inspections to identify and repair small issues in their infancy and ensure your system is functioning properly, safely, and efficiently. 

Specialty Components: Boilers and Chillers

Facilities that use boilers or chillers generally require specialized plumbing to accommodate heat exchange and various refrigerants.

Chillers

Cool workspaces are essential for buildings like data centers, manufacturing plants, and other commercial settings. As the industry leader in commercial refrigeration, we are the authority on designing and installing chiller systems for any size facility.

  • We offer a range of refrigerants to meet your needs, including natural refrigerants to help reduce your facility’s carbon footprint.
  • We’ll configure a chiller system based on your cooling load and operational needs. Advanced technological controls can help minimize energy use and increase efficiency.
  • Our team provides regular maintenance—including checking refrigerant levels and inspecting parts for wear—to ensure optimal performance.

Boilers

The professionals at South-Town have decades of experience designing and installing boiler-specific piping systems. We’ll ensure your facility is set up with the necessary pipes, pumps, controls, and safety features to effectively deliver heat from your commercial boiler for use where it’s needed.
