You\u2019re likely familiar with these even if you think you aren\u2019t\u2014you probably\nsee large pieces of equipment on top of commercial and industrial buildings and\ndon\u2019t think much of them\u2014but what you\u2019re looking at is a packaged air conditioning\nsystem. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why are these so popular? Read on as we uncover the answer\nto this question and more information you should know about these types of AC\nsystems. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2>They Save Space<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The main reason that HVAC units were placed on the top of\ncommercial and industrial buildings was because there weren\u2019t any other spaces\navailable. Early central air conditioners for commercial spaces were added onto\nstructures that were often in the middle of crowded downtown areas where there\nwas literally no space around the structure for large units. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Up on the rooftop, they don\u2019t take up valuable real estate,\nand they\u2019re less prone to suffer from vandalism and other damage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>They Help with Efficiency<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Modern rooftop air conditioning units are available in\nhigher efficiencies (HSPF and SEER) than other types of commercial heating and\nair conditioning systems. There are also more ventilation options with these\nsystems\u2014like putting in humidistats) that can improve indoor air quality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>They\u2019re Easy for Us to Access<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWait, the roof isn\u2019t easy to access\u2026\u201d you may be thinking.\nDon\u2019t worry, we don\u2019t mean easy to access for <em>you. <\/em>It\u2019s easy to access for our team. We can access without\ncausing a business interruption in <em>your <\/em>commercial\nspace. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The \u201cpackaged\u201d part of these rooftop units is very helpful\ntoo. Unlike traditional split-system air conditioner and heat pumps systems,\nboth of which have components in cabinets that are both inside and outside the\nbuilding, every component of the HVAC systems are in the rooftop cabinet. This\nmeans our professionals can manage repairs and maintenance all from one spot. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>They Operate Very Quietly<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You don\u2019t typically hear the sounds of an air conditioner or\nheater inside a workplace, only the slight <em>whoosh\n<\/em>of air through the vents. This is because rooftop units store all the\nmechanical components, like the compressor and the fans, far away from the\nworkspace. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>They Are Modular<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you take a look at the roof of a standard commercial building, you\u2019ll see multiple packaged HVAC units. This is because they\u2019re designed to be modular. This allows them to grow as the business grows, or as business needs change. This isn\u2019t possible using a conventional split-system air conditioner that must use indoor components. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Contact Us for Professional Commercial HVAC Services!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The thing about commercial or industrial HVAC systems is\nthat they are much more complex than residential systems. Whoever you have\nworking on these systems should have extensive knowledge with them, including\nhow to maintain them and what can go wrong with them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>For expert service on your <a href=\"\/service-areas\/danville-ac-heating\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"commercial HVAC in Danville, CA (opens in a new tab)\">commercial HVAC in Danville, CA<\/a>, contact <a href=\"\/contact\/send-a-message\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Hometown Heating and Air Conditioning (opens in a new tab)\">Hometown Heating and Air Conditioning<\/a>. <\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here&#8217;s why most businesses have rooftop units installed! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[104],"tags":[105,111],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hometownheatingandair.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/569"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hometownheatingandair.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hometownheatingandair.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hometownheatingandair.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hometownheatingandair.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=569"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.hometownheatingandair.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/569\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":573,"href":"https:\/\/www.hometownheatingandair.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/569\/revisions\/573"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hometownheatingandair.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=569"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hometownheatingandair.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=569"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hometownheatingandair.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=569"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
