Replacing rooftop units in Greenwood Village

East of I-25, Greenwood Village is one of the metro's densest office markets, with Denver Tech Center towers, corporate campuses and medical suites served by rooftop units, central plants and VAV systems. 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 Greenwood Village

Redevelopment in the Tech Center is turning older low-rise office parcels into mixed-use, multifamily and new Class A space, each with its own mechanical scope. RTU work clusters around the Denver Tech Center, Greenwood Plaza, the Orchard Road and Belleview Avenue office corridors and the Landmark mixed-use district.

Owners and managers in Greenwood Village usually replace RTUs for one of three reasons: a failed compressor or heat exchanger, rising repair bills, or a tenant change. We plan each changeout so the building reopens on schedule.

What a Greenwood Village 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.

• Roof survey of every unit
• Replacement equipment selection
• Structural and roofer coordination
• Crane and rigging plan
• Curb adapters or new curbs
• Gas, electrical and condensate
• Economizer and controls
• Startup reports

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

Local conditions in Greenwood Village

• Homes from the 1970s through the 2000s often still have original ductwork paired with replacement equipment that was never resized.
• Large finished basements and vaulted main floors create real temperature differences between levels, a classic zoning problem.
• Offices and medical suites around the Tech Center rely on rooftop units and split systems that need scheduled maintenance, not only break-fix calls.

At about 5,400 feet, Greenwood Village equipment works in thin air, intense sun and hail. We select capacity with altitude correction, set gas equipment to the manufacturer's elevation guidance and plan outdoor equipment for hail exposure.

We also deliver rooftop unit replacement in nearby Cherry Hills Village, Centennial, Lone Tree and Englewood. For the full overview, including our pricing approach, process and common questions, see rooftop unit replacement in Denver.
