The perfect blend, the right aging process and even the atmosphere in which wine is stored all contribute to the final product that ends up on the table. Your winery’s successes hinge on maintaining precise conditions throughout the production process. Yet, one of the most critical aspects—HVAC systems—often goes unnoticed until something goes wrong. 

At BMI-PacWest, we understand the unique challenges you face in maintaining an optimal environment for winemaking. That’s why we’ve designed our Guaranteed Maintenance Program to offer peace of mind, allowing you to focus on what matters most—crafting exceptional wines. 

The Critical Role of HVAC in Wineries 

HVAC systems play a pivotal role in the winemaking process. Temperature and humidity control are essential for everything from fermentation to storage. Inconsistent conditions can lead to significant problems, including spoilage, compromised flavor and even production delays. For wineries, these issues can be catastrophic, leading to lost revenue and damaged reputations.

Consider the delicate balance required during fermentation. Yeast activity, which converts sugars into alcohol, is highly sensitive to temperature. A fluctuation of even a few degrees can alter the rate of fermentation, impacting the wine’s flavor profile.

Similarly, humidity control is crucial, particularly in barrel storage, where low humidity can cause corks to dry out, leading to oxidation and spoilage. Maintaining consistent conditions is not just about preserving quality—it’s about safeguarding your winery’s entire operation. 

The stakes are high, and downtime is simply not an option. A malfunctioning HVAC system can bring production to a grinding halt, jeopardizing an entire harvest. This is where BMI-PacWest’s expertise comes into play.

With over 100 years of experience in the HVAC industry, we specialize in providing commercial and industrial solutions tailored to the unique needs of wineries. Our Guaranteed Maintenance Program ensures HVAC systems run smoothly, so you never have to worry about a breakdown. 

The Guaranteed Maintenance Program

At BMI-PacWest, we believe in proactive care. Our Guaranteed Maintenance Program is not just a service, but a partnership. We work closely with you to develop a customized preventive maintenance plan that addresses the specific challenges you face. Whether it’s optimizing temperature control during fermentation or ensuring consistent humidity levels in storage areas, our team of experts has the knowledge and experience to keep your HVAC systems operating at peak efficiency. 

One of the key benefits of our program is its fixed-cost structure. We understand that wineries need to plan their budgets carefully, and unexpected expenses can throw a wrench in even the most meticulous financial planning. With our Guaranteed Maintenance Program, you can forget about surprise repair bills.

For a fixed annual cost, we take care of everything—regular inspections, preventive maintenance and any necessary repairs or replacements. This not only provides peace of mind but also allows you to allocate resources more effectively, knowing that your HVAC costs are predictable and under control.

But our commitment to your winery doesn’t stop at routine maintenance. We know that even with the best preventative measures, issues can still arise. That’s why we offer 24/7 emergency repair services as part of our program.

When an HVAC problem occurs, you need immediate assistance to minimize downtime and keep your operations up and running. Our technicians are available around the clock, ready to respond at a moment’s notice. With BMI-PacWest, you can trust that help is always just a phone call away, no matter the time of day or night.

BMI-PacWest and Your Winery’s Success

Our approach to HVAC maintenance is different from the traditional “break and fix” model, which rewards contractors every time your system fails. At BMI-PacWest, we believe in aligning our interests with yours. We measure our success by the reliability and efficiency of your HVAC systems—not by how often we come in for repairs. This is why our Guaranteed Maintenance Program focuses on prevention rather than reaction.

Our goal is to ensure that your HVAC systems support your winemaking process, not hinder it.
