Scope of Work

Ground-Up New Construction & Tenant Improvement

Aspen AC handles new construction HVAC across two primary project scopes — ground-up commercial builds where mechanical systems are installed from the foundation up, and tenant improvement projects where HVAC modifications or additions are made within existing base building infrastructure. Both require distinct planning and coordination approaches.

Ground-Up Construction

New Build · Shell & Core · Developer Projects

Full mechanical HVAC installation from the ground up — coordinating with the GC from pre-construction planning through certificate of occupancy. Aspen AC manages equipment procurement and lead times, installs all mechanical systems to Florida code and design specifications, coordinates with electrical and structural trades, and delivers complete commissioning documentation at project close.

Pre-construction mechanical design review and coordination
Equipment procurement and lead-time tracking
All mechanical system installation — RTU, split, VRF, packaged, controls
Trade coordination — electrical, structural, plumbing
Code-compliant installation with required inspections
Full commissioning and COO documentation

Tenant Improvement & Fit-Out

TI · Fit-Out · Office Buildout · Retail Buildout

HVAC mechanical work within existing commercial buildings for tenant improvement and fit-out projects — from single-tenant office buildouts to multi-tenant retail and mixed-use fit-outs. Tenant improvement HVAC work operates within the base building's existing mechanical infrastructure and requires careful coordination with landlord specifications, existing equipment, and active adjacent tenants.

Existing base building HVAC assessment and coordination
New zone additions, ductwork modifications, and equipment installations
Thermostat and controls upgrades within leased space
Landlord and property management coordination
Work sequenced around adjacent occupied tenants
As-built documentation delivered at project handover
What Aspen AC Delivers

Our Process

How Aspen AC Manages a New Construction HVAC Project

Commercial construction HVAC projects fail when mechanical subcontractors treat them as a series of installation tasks rather than a coordinated project with schedule dependencies, trade interfaces, and documentation obligations. Aspen AC's construction HVAC process is built around GC expectations — not just equipment delivery.

Pre-Construction

Mechanical drawing review, equipment specification input, procurement initiation, and schedule coordination with the GC. Lead times for commercial HVAC equipment in South Florida's market are factored into the procurement plan from day one — not discovered at the critical path.

Rough-In & Installation

Mechanical rough-in coordinated with structural and electrical trades. All installation is performed by NATE-certified technicians to Florida mechanical code and manufacturer specifications. Field conditions are documented and managed through the RFI process without delaying the GC's schedule.

Startup & Commissioning

Full system startup, performance testing, and commissioning performed against the design specifications — not just a function check. Commissioning deficiencies are identified and resolved before the handover date. Written commissioning report delivered to the GC for the COO package.

Handover & Warranty

As-built drawings, equipment warranty registration, O&M documentation, and operator training delivered at project handover. Post-construction preventive maintenance contract available at project close — ensuring the installed equipment is properly maintained from the first day of occupancy.

Building Types

New Construction HVAC Across Commercial Building Types

Different commercial building types have different mechanical requirements, construction phasing constraints, and code compliance obligations. Aspen AC's construction teams have experience across Southeast Florida's primary new construction sectors.

Office & Mixed-Use

Multi-tenant office buildings and mixed-use commercial developments require HVAC systems that support flexible tenanting, individual metering, and landlord-tenant mechanical separation. Aspen AC installs base building HVAC infrastructure on shell-and-core projects and handles tenant improvement HVAC for individual fit-outs within completed buildings.

Commercial HVAC installation

Healthcare & Institutional

New healthcare construction requires HVAC systems meeting ASHRAE 170 ventilation requirements, specific pressure differential specifications, and infection control standards during construction. Aspen AC's teams are experienced in healthcare new construction — including the phased installation and commissioning sequencing that clinical environments require.

Healthcare HVAC services

Retail & Hospitality

Retail shell buildings, restaurant fit-outs, and hospitality new construction each present distinct mechanical requirements — from high-ventilation commercial kitchen makeups to multi-zone retail environments to hotel PTAC and VRF deployments. Aspen AC handles new construction HVAC across all three segments throughout Palm Beach and Broward Counties.

Why Aspen AC

Why General Contractors Choose Aspen AC for New Construction HVAC

A mechanical subcontractor that misses schedule, delivers incomplete documentation, or fails commissioning creates direct cost and liability exposure for the general contractor. Aspen AC's construction HVAC process is built around the GC's needs — not just the installation. After handover, our commercial HVAC maintenance contracts keep installed systems performing through their operational life.

40+ Years of South Florida Construction

Aspen AC has been installing commercial HVAC on new construction projects in Southeast Florida since 1983. Our construction teams understand the specific equipment performance requirements of South Florida's climate, the permit and inspection process across Palm Beach and Broward Counties, and the GC coordination standards that commercial construction projects require.

NATE-Certified Installation Teams

Every Aspen AC installation technician holds active NATE certification. On construction projects, this means installations are executed correctly the first time — no rework, no failed commissioning from incorrect refrigerant charging or improper electrical connections, no warranty voids from non-compliant installation practices.

Licensed, Bonded & Insured

Fully licensed for commercial mechanical work throughout Florida, bonded against contractual non-performance, and carrying comprehensive general liability and workers' compensation insurance at coverage levels required by commercial construction contracts. Our certificate of insurance is available immediately upon project award.

GC-Ready Documentation at Every Stage

Aspen AC delivers the documentation commercial construction projects require — RFI responses, daily site reports, inspection sign-offs, commissioning reports, as-built drawings, equipment warranty registrations, and O&M packages. Our documentation process is structured to support the GC's COO package without chasing the mechanical sub for paperwork at project close.
