Move A C To Roof

After all the roof is far off the ground and people have to get the system up there.

Move a c to roof.

Hi all we recently moved into a home that has 3 a c zones with a separate compressor for each zone. Well that can get pretty expensive. Currently the 2 zone central heat and air a c units are located ground patio level. The freon lines have to be emptied and evacuated re routed and reconnected then vacuum evacuated again then only a certified a c tech can legally buy enough freon to recharge the unit and they ll have the proper tools to do that.

Although most of the work can be done on your own when moving your ac unit you will have to call a licensed hvac technician to discharge and recharge your system before and after it has been moved. As it turns out getting an ac system on your roof is not more expensive. In fact it costs roughly the same as having a split system installed. It s also hot on the roof with the sun beating down directly onto the unit.

Before a unit can be moved the unit must have the existing freon pumped down or back into it. Hoping contact can be made prior to the roof replacement but if not i will have to remove the dish and place it next to the house until i can get them to move it. Hey i own a townhouse in dallas which means crazy hot summers. I need to upgrade these units so i am also looking into moving them to the rooftop and reclaiming the patio space plus lack of noise.

Your talking about moving the condenser unit from the roof to the ground. Anyway we are looking a putting a deck on the back of the house and wanted to move the 3 three compressors about 10. Have been on hold to customer service for 3 hours. First the refrigerant line cannot be stretched or bent to excessive angles because this could cause a leak in the line.

It may be too close to your home and too noisy or it may be placed on ground that is eroding. Moving the air conditioner is one of those modifications that can t easily be undone. Moving a unit isn t as easy or inexpensive as you may believe. It s an old home and it used spacepak high velocity cooling inside of home.

Air conditioning or a c vents are used to circulate air from the central a c blower to rooms throughout your house. You probably won t get ostracized from the neighborhood if you move your air conditioner to the roof when the rest of the houses have theirs on the ground but when go you go sell your home it might matter. This is a 2 story 2200 sqft pitched n s roof townhouse units would be moved to the north side. If you find that one of these vents is in an inconvenient location or isn t cooling properly you can move it to a new location.

We are giving a new roof installed and want to relocate the dish to a post.
