New construction/renovations

Building Comfort the Right Way from the Start

Whether you’re building a new home, constructing a commercial property, or undertaking a major renovation, the decisions made during the design and construction process will impact comfort, energy efficiency, and system performance for decades to come. At Lawrence Air Systems, we work closely with homeowners, architects, builders, and contractors to design and install HVAC systems that are tailored to the unique needs of each project. By focusing on proper system design, equipment selection, airflow management, ductwork design, ventilation, and indoor air quality from the beginning, we help ensure your investment delivers long-term comfort, reliability, and value.

HVAC Design & Planning

The most important phase of any HVAC project happens before installation begins. Proper design is critical to ensuring the system can efficiently heat, cool, ventilate, and condition the space while maintaining consistent comfort throughout the building.

Our design process considers:
  • Building size and layout
  • Insulation levels
  • Window placement and solar exposure
  • Occupancy requirements
  • Airflow requirements
  • Ventilation needs
  • Humidity control
  • Indoor air quality goals
  • Future expansion opportunities

 

Residential New Construction

Building a new home offers the opportunity to create a system specifically designed for the way you live. Rather than adapting to existing conditions, we can design a complete heating, cooling, ventilation, and air quality solution that delivers optimal performance from day one.

Our residential new construction services include:
  • Ducted heating and cooling systems
  • High-efficiency heat pumps
  • Geothermal systems
  • Ductless mini-split systems
  • Boiler and hydronic heating systems
  • Indoor air quality solutions
  • Humidity control systems
  • Fresh air ventilation systems
  • Smart thermostat and zoning solutions

Home Additions & Major Renovations

Renovations and additions present unique HVAC challenges. Existing systems may not have the capacity to serve newly renovated areas, and older homes often require creative solutions to achieve modern comfort standards.

We help homeowners evaluate:
  • Existing system capacity
  • Ductwork modifications
  • Zoning opportunities
  • Energy efficiency improvements
  • Ventilation requirements
  • Indoor air quality upgrades
  • Humidity control solutions

Ductwork Design & Installation

Even the highest-efficiency HVAC equipment cannot perform properly without a well-designed duct system.

Many comfort issues can be traced back to poorly designed ductwork that restricts airflow, creates temperature imbalances, and wastes energy.

Our ductwork services include:
  • Custom duct design
  • Airflow balancing
  • Duct sealing
  • Duct insulation
  • Return air design
  • Comfort zoning preparation

Ventilation & Indoor Air Quality

Modern homes and buildings are more energy efficient than ever, but tighter construction also increases the need for proper ventilation and indoor air quality management.

We incorporate solutions such as:

Energy Recovery Ventilators (ERVs)

Bring in fresh outdoor air while helping maintain indoor humidity balance.

Heat Recovery Ventilators (HRVs)

Provide controlled ventilation while recovering valuable heating energy.

Advanced Filtration

Reduce airborne dust, allergens, and contaminants.

Humidity Control

Maintain ideal indoor moisture levels throughout the year.

High-Efficiency Heating & Cooling Solutions

We specialize in high-performance comfort systems that reduce energy consumption while maximizing comfort.

Options include:
  • Air-source heat pumps
  • Geothermal systems
  • High-efficiency furnaces
  • Hydronic heating systems
  • Variable-speed HVAC systems
  • Ductless mini-splits
  • Hybrid heating solutions

Smart Controls & Comfort Zoning

Modern controls allow homeowners and building owners to manage comfort more effectively than ever before.

Benefits include:
  • Independent temperature control by area
  • Improved comfort
  • Reduced energy waste
  • Remote monitoring and control
  • Better system performance
  • Increased convenience
