Replacing rooftop units in Arvada

Arvada's commercial base runs from restaurants and storefronts in Olde Town to retail and office along Kipling and Wadsworth and new mixed-use near the G Line stations. When those rooftop units reach end of life, Besties HVAC Solutions plans the lift, the curb, the utilities and the controls so changeout day is execution, not discovery.

Where we lift in Arvada

We work on roofs across Olde Town Arvada, the Arvada Ridge area, the Kipling and Wadsworth corridors and Candelas and Leyden Rock. Candelas and Leyden Rock on the northwest edge are active master-planned communities, and transit-oriented multifamily continues near Olde Town.

Arvada combines a historic Olde Town with decades of suburban growth and new master-planned communities on its northwest edge. Rooftop equipment here takes direct sun, hail, wind and cold snaps, and many units on older buildings are past their expected life and running on repeated repairs.

What a Arvada RTU changeout includes

After the set, we complete connections, economizer and controls setup, and a full startup on heating and cooling, then document each unit for the owner.

• Gas, electrical and condensate
• Economizer and controls
• Startup reports
• Disposal of old units
• Hail guard options
• Roof survey of every unit
• Replacement equipment selection
• Structural and roofer coordination

Process

1. Survey. Existing conditions or construction documents reviewed in detail
2. Price. Scope, options and exclusions in writing, so the number holds
3. Install. Scheduled work windows, protected finishes and clean sites
4. Commission. Startup, balancing, controls and training before turnover

What we plan for in Arvada

• Central Arvada's 1960s and 1970s homes often have aging equipment and original ducts.
• New northwest communities have tighter homes where ventilation and humidity need attention.
• Open northwest areas are exposed to wind and hail.

Arvada sits at about 5,350 feet. At that elevation gas equipment needs the manufacturer's high-altitude setup and cooling capacity is lower than sea-level ratings suggest, so we select and set up equipment for the actual site.

We also deliver rooftop unit replacement in nearby Westminster, Wheat Ridge, Golden and Broomfield. For the full overview, including our pricing approach, process and common questions, see rooftop unit replacement in Denver.
