Walkthrough
Make-up air unit, exhaust fan, and HVAC system evaluated. Pressure balance and airflow measured.
Filter replacement
Make-up air filters and return-air filters replaced — typically quarterly for moderate-volume kitchens.
Coil cleaning
Evaporator and condenser coils cleaned to restore heat-exchange efficiency lost to grease and dust.

Belt drives tensioned, bearings lubricated, motor electrical connections tightened, no-slip operation verified.
Refrigerant check
Refrigerant charge measured, leaks tested, system pressures verified within manufacturer specification.
Make-up air balance

HVAC & Make-Up Air in Falls Church
Professional HVAC & Make-Up Air for Falls Church businesses
Falls Church kitchen HVAC service covers the Eden Center Vietnamese restaurant corridor, Seven Corners, and the Broad Street and Washington Street downtown restaurants. We service Falls Church with Falls Church City-aligned air-balance documentation and 45-minute response from Sterling.
Falls Church is an independent jurisdiction separate from Fairfax County Mechanical Code enforcement. Eden Center's high-density Vietnamese restaurants run intense high-heat cooking that pushes MUA filter cadences toward monthly during peak season. Most Falls Church restaurants run standard packaged rooftop HVAC and MUA units; some Eden Center tenants share rooftop infrastructure requiring multi-tenant coordination.
Local Compliance: Falls Church is an independent city with its own Mechanical Code enforcement separate from Fairfax County. Our Falls Church air-balance reports file with Falls Church City — not Fairfax County DPWES — on first submission.

HVAC & Make-Up Air Insights

The Real Cost of Opening a Restaurant in Northern Virginia in 2026
You've got the concept, the recipes, and the drive. But the number that kills most new restaurants in NoVA isn't food cost or rent — it's the mechanical and ventilation buildout nobody warned you about.
