Rooftop AC Unit Lifts in Miami
HVAC crews call us more than anyone else. Condensers, air handlers and full package units set straight onto the curb, on single-family roofs and on high-rise decks.
Rooftop AC Unit Lifts, Miami
About 25 to 35 minutes south of the West Park yard. We bring the same fleet and the same certified operators to Miami that we bring anywhere else between West Palm Beach and South Miami.
An AC change-out lives or dies on the lift. The unit has to come off the truck, clear the roofline, and land square on a curb that is often the same footprint as the crate. This is one of the lifts we run most, so the part your crew is worried about is the part we know cold.
Most residential change-outs are a 17-ton boom truck and under two hours on site. Commercial package units, tight courtyards, and anything past the second floor is where the 35-ton and 40-ton machines earn their keep.
Working in Miami
Miami jobs are rarely about weight. They are about getting a truck to the building and getting the boom over it. Downtown and Brickell mean one-way grids, bus lanes, valet ramps and buildings whose management wants insurance paperwork and a scheduled window before anything rolls in.
Rooftop mechanical decks on mid and high-rise buildings are the common ask, and reach usually decides the machine long before tonnage does. On the tighter jobs, a courtyard, an interior atrium, a plaza deck with a load rating, the 2-ton spider crane goes in where nothing on wheels will fit. We ran it inside MiamiCentral for indoor glass work, which is about as tight as this city gets.
Give us the street address and a photo of where the truck would sit. In Miami that one picture answers most of what we would otherwise spend a phone call asking.
What we need before we roll
- Unit weight. Off the spec sheet or the crate label. Most residential condensers run 150 to 400 lb; commercial packages go well past a ton.
- Roof height and setback. How high the deck is and how far in from the curb line the unit has to travel.
- Where the truck can sit. Driveway, street, alley. Overhead power lines are the single biggest thing that changes the plan.
- Curb ready or not. If the curb or pad is not finished we can still set it aside, but you will pay for a second trip.
