Westminster's US 36 corridor carries office parks at Church Ranch, retail at The Orchard and new mixed-use buildings in Downtown Westminster. 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 Westminster
Typical Westminster sites include Downtown Westminster, The Orchard Town Center, Church Ranch and the US 36 office corridor and the Westminster Station area. Downtown Westminster and the Westminster Station area are adding multifamily and mixed-use buildings on redeveloped land.
Westminster sits between Denver and Boulder along US 36, with large established neighborhoods and steady redevelopment. 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.

How a Westminster rooftop changeout runs
We survey nameplates, curbs, gas, electrical, condensate and controls, confirm crane access, and specify curb adapters where footprints change so the roof does not need to be opened.
- Curb adapters or new curbs
- Gas, electrical and condensate
- Economizer and controls
- Startup reports
- Disposal of old units
- Hail guard options
- Roof survey of every unit
- Replacement equipment selection
Process
- Walk or review. A site walk or plan review to understand the building, access and goals
- Proposal. A written scope with equipment, schedule, exclusions and price
- Build. Installation coordinated with your team, the other trades and the building
- Close out. Startup, documentation and a walkthrough with the owner or manager
Local conditions in Westminster
- Many commuting owners prefer appointments scheduled around the workday.
- Many 1970s and 1980s homes are due for full system replacement, ductwork included.
- Neighborhoods around Standley Lake include larger homes with more complex layouts.
Altitude is a design input here. At about 5,300 feet, thinner air reduces combustion and air-side capacity, and we correct equipment selection and gas setup for it on every Westminster project.
We also deliver rooftop unit replacement in nearby Arvada, Broomfield, Northglenn and Thornton. For the full overview, including our pricing approach, process and common questions, see rooftop unit replacement in Denver.

Westminster rooftop unit replacement questions
Do you replace RTUs around Downtown Westminster?
Yes. We replace rooftop units across Westminster, including Downtown Westminster, The Orchard Town Center, Church Ranch and the US 36 office corridor and the Westminster Station area.
Can Westminster changeouts happen after hours?
Yes. Most Westminster changeouts are scheduled early mornings, weekends or after hours.
Do you handle the crane?
Yes. We work with a qualified crane provider, prepare a written lift plan and handle street use permits where the lift requires them.
What is a curb adapter?
A transition that lets a new unit with a different footprint sit on the existing roof curb, which avoids cutting and re-flashing the roof.
How many units in one day?
Often several, depending on unit size, access and crane reach. Grouping units into one crane day lowers the lift cost per unit.
