This project took place at a beautiful residential property in Las Vegas, where we replaced an outdated rooftop HVAC unit with a modern 3-ton 13.4 SEER2 Gas Package Unit from EcoTemp by ICP. The upgrade addressed both energy efficiency concerns and improving indoor air quality. One of the unique challenges of this project was the steep roof pitch, requiring extra care and precision during installation.
Procedure
Assessment and Removal of Old Unit:
- We began by disconnecting the outdated HVAC unit. Proper safety procedures were in place to manage the electrical wiring and refrigerant lines.
- The old unit was carefully removed from the rooftop using specialized lifting equipment, ensuring no damage to the roof structure or tiles.
Preparing the Platform:
- The existing rooftop platform required reinforcement to accommodate the new EcoTemp unit.
- We applied a weatherproof sealant around the platform edges to protect against leaks.
Installation of the New Unit:
- The EcoTemp 3-ton 13.4 SEER2 Gas Package Unit was securely mounted on the reinforced platform. This unit is known for its compact design and high performance.
- Electrical connections were rewired to match the new system specifications.
- Gas lines were carefully reconnected, adhering to local safety codes.
Calibration and Testing:
- After installation, we performed a detailed system calibration to ensure optimal operation.
- The system was tested for proper airflow, refrigerant pressure, and gas combustion efficiency.
- A thermal imaging tool was used to check for any leaks or thermal inconsistencies.
