When exhaust fans stall or ventilation falls out of balance, tenants notice it as stale air, lingering odors, restroom complaints and humidity. Com+ Mechanical services and repairs commercial exhaust and ventilation systems building-wide — rooftop and inline exhaust fans, energy-recovery ventilators (ERV/HRV), dedicated outdoor air systems (DOAS), dampers and controls — with 24/7 response for property managers and building owners across the five boroughs and surrounding metro.
A tripped overload, failed capacitor, seized bearing, snapped or glazed belt, or a burned-out motor. We test the fan under load and check the drive rather than just cycling power, so the unit doesn't fail again next week.
Toilet and general exhaust that has lost airflow — clogged grilles, a fan running backward after a phase swap, a stuck backdraft damper, or branch ductwork that has come apart in the ceiling. The space goes under-ventilated and odor and moisture sit.
The building has gone net positive or negative because exhaust and make-up/supply air no longer match — a down fan, a stuck damper, or a system that was never rebalanced after a tenant fit-out. We measure pressure and rebalance the air.
A fouled or frozen energy-recovery core, a stalled enthalpy wheel, failed defrost or economizer controls, or plugged filters. The unit stops recovering heat and either over-ventilates, under-ventilates, or trips on freeze protection.
Failed CO or NO2 sensors out of calibration, a fan that won't stage up on demand, or a controls fault leaving the garage either under-ventilated (alarm risk) or running full-speed 24/7 and wasting energy.
Worn bearings, an unbalanced wheel, loose isolation, or a deteriorated roof curb, flashing or backdraft damper letting water and weather in below the unit. Left alone these progress to motor failure and interior damage.
Ventilation is the system tenants only notice when it fails — restrooms that hold odor, corridors that feel stuffy, garages that set off CO alarms, mechanical rooms that overheat, and floors that go negative or positive enough to slam doors and whistle through elevator shafts. Com+ Mechanical services the full commercial exhaust and ventilation chain across NYC office, retail, multifamily, parking and mixed-use buildings: rooftop and wall-mounted exhaust fans, inline and utility-set fans, general and toilet exhaust, stairwell and elevator pressurization, garage exhaust and CO control, and the energy-recovery ventilators (ERV/HRV) and dedicated outdoor air systems (DOAS) that bring code-required fresh air to the building. We diagnose airflow at the actual cause — a seized bearing, a slipping belt, a failed VFD, a stuck damper actuator, a clogged ERV core or a controls fault — and rebalance the building so supply, return and exhaust match the way the design and code (ASHRAE 62.1) intend. You get documented findings and a clear path to resolution, not a fan that was simply reset.
From call to comfort in 4 easy steps
We confirm access, safety and equipment details, then get a technician to the fans, ERV/DOAS and affected spaces to assess the failure.
We test motors, drives, dampers and controls under load and measure airflow and pressure to find the true cause — not just the symptom.
You get a documented scope with photos and a clear price before work proceeds. No surprise invoices.
We complete the repair, rebalance supply/return/exhaust, verify airflow and controls, and leave the system logged and labeled for your records.
Rooftop, wall-mounted, inline and utility-set fans handling toilet, general, garage and mechanical-room exhaust and supply air.
Enthalpy-wheel and plate-core units that recover heat and moisture from exhaust to temper incoming fresh air — central to efficient ventilation.
Units that deliver and condition code-required outdoor air independently of the building's heating and cooling, often paired with VRF or fan-coils.
We work on building ventilation every day across NYC — exhaust fans, ERVs and DOAS — not the occasional residential bath fan.
Clear documentation, a single point of contact, and coordination with your building staff and tenants.
One vendor for one fan or every ventilation system across multiple buildings and boroughs.
Every repair comes with a preventive-maintenance recommendation to cut emergency failures and keep airflow on spec.
No fees. No surprises. Just honest service.
Approved repair scoped to the failed components, with the building rebalanced.
Planned ventilation maintenance to cut emergency failures across your portfolio.

Yes. A down exhaust fan, a building gone negative, or a triggered garage CO alarm can't wait for business hours, so we provide 24/7 emergency commercial response across the five boroughs and surrounding metro.
We service rooftop and wall-mounted exhaust fans, inline and utility-set fans, general and toilet exhaust, stairwell and elevator pressurization, garage exhaust and CO control, and energy-recovery ventilators (ERV/HRV) and dedicated outdoor air systems (DOAS) — from manufacturers including Greenheck, Loren Cook, Twin City Fan and RenewAire.
Yes. Renovations frequently throw a floor out of balance — added exhaust, relocated diffusers or capped returns leave the space net positive or negative. We measure airflow and building pressure and rebalance supply, return and exhaust so the floor meets design and ASHRAE 62.1 ventilation requirements.
Yes. We support property-management companies and owners with multi-site portfolios, giving you one vendor, consistent documentation, and coordinated scheduling across buildings and boroughs.
Fans run continuously, so failed drives, fixed-speed operation and bypassed energy recovery quietly waste energy. Restoring VFD control, demand-based ventilation and a working ERV/HRV cuts fan and conditioning load, which supports your building's emissions targets. For aging equipment we'll show how upgrades affect efficiency and Local Law 97 exposure.
Yes. We coordinate with building staff on roof access, COIs, tenant notice and safety requirements before mobilizing.
