Welcome to Hayes University
For over 100 years, Hayes Mechanical has established itself as the leading resource for all facets of commercial and industrial mechanical services. Along with our focus on client relationships and our commitment to safety and quality, a key component to our success and longevity has always been built around our industry experience and knowledge.
In order to better serve our clients, we have developed Hayes University. Hayes University is an ongoing educational video web series that focuses on a variety of HVAC, boiler, plumbing and related mechanical system topics. The intention of these videos is to help provide our clients with a better understanding of how their equipment operates, what needs to be done to maintain these systems plus provide general information that will help clients make educated decisions. In addition to the web series, we will begin hosting online and in-person classes to help further educate our clients.

Air Cooled Chiller Replacement Project
In this session of Hayes University we review the replacement process of two 250 ton air cooled chillers. Looking for expertise to help investigate the condition of their chillers, this client turned to Hayes Mechanical. We review the steps we took to analyze their equipment and the entire replacement process from start to finish!
High Efficiency Condensing Boiler Installation
In this session of Hayes University we review the installation process of high efficiency condensing boilers. This client had two large vintage boilers, which given their age were in relatively good condition. So rather than replacing the entire boiler room, we removed one boiler, installed two smaller high efficiency condensing boilers and left one old boiler as an emergency backup. This allowed our client to maximize their system efficiency, while reducing the overall project cost.
High Efficiency Packaged Rooftop Unit Installation
This video shows the installation process of high efficiency packaged rooftop units at our headquarters in Chicago, Illinois. Our HVAC systems were aging, inefficient, sustained damage from a hail storm and still used R-22. The new units we installed will save us money on our utility bills for years to come.
The Boiler Washout
In this session of Hayes University we review the importance of washing out your boiler and steps involved with the steel tube boiler washout.
The Chiller Teardown
In this session of Hayes University we review the importance of chiller teardowns and steps involved with the chiller teardown process.
Boiler Basics & Combustion Analysis Tuning
