Why it matters
One borough, three ventilation realities
The industrial park, the canal corridor and the retail on Rue Notre-Dame don’t ventilate the same way. The right system depends on the building and its use, not the postal code.
Industrial park: 32nd Avenue and Joseph-Dubreuil
Distribution, light manufacturing and warehousing on large lots, often with good roof access and structural curbs. These buildings have the load capacity; what’s missing is an air balance that matches current use.
Lachine Canal and Boulevard Saint-Joseph
Old manufacturing buildings converted to offices, workshops and light production. Solid structure and high ceilings, but the original mechanicals handle neither dense occupancy nor the fresh air a modern floor needs.
Rue Notre-Dame and Chemin du Golf
Neighbourhood retail along Rue Notre-Dame, then west toward the industrial sectors of Chemin du Golf and Boulevard Provost, near the airport. Comfort during opening hours on one side, high ceilings and dock doors on the other.
The system
What we install in Lachine
From the rooftop unit of a 32nd Avenue warehouse to the make-up air of a converted canal-side floor.
✓ Rooftop units (RTUs) from commercial to industrial capacity
✓ Make-up air (MAU) systems to offset exhaust
✓ Commercial ductwork, including kitchen exhaust (NFPA 96)
✓ Warehouse ventilation: stratification and dock-door losses
✓ Curb adapters to replace equipment on older buildings

Coordinated with your operations, permits and inspections included
01

Installation
Roof work, duct and unit installation, electrical and gas coordination. Scheduled around your operating hours and shifts.

We handle permit applications and schedule the required inspections as part of the project, under the Quebec Construction Code.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What Lachine businesses ask us
Do you work in the 32nd Avenue industrial park?
Yes. Warehouses, distribution centres and manufacturing workshops are part of our work there. These buildings often have the roof capacity, but need sizing that accounts for dock doors and stratification under a high deck.
Can you work on the converted buildings along the canal?
Yes, regularly. These buildings generally need a system designed for current use rather than an adaptation of the original industrial mechanicals, which were built for sparse occupancy and little concern for comfort.
Do you work during our operating hours?
Yes. Work is phased outside your production, receiving or public-opening periods. Crane lifts are planned in advance with facility management.
Do you install restaurant ventilation on Rue Notre-Dame?
Yes, for commercial kitchens: hood, grease duct, roof exhaust fan and a balanced make-up air unit, per NFPA 96.
How do you handle permits and inspections?
We prepare the documents and manage the permit application as part of the project, then schedule the required inspections in the timeline, under the Quebec construction codes.
Do you offer maintenance after installation?
No. We focus exclusively on commercial design and installation, and hand over complete documentation for the equipment installed.
