Have you been considering having a rooftop air conditioning unit installed on your building or are you worried that your existing unit needs service? If so Miranda Air Conditioning Services is here for you. We are able to install and service all types of rooftop air condition units.
What Is A Rooftop Unit?
Typically a rooftop unit goes onto large buildings, shopping center, schools and hospitals. A rooftop unit in a commercial situation will typically house several different units in one area or strategically placed on your roof. Some homeowners also have a rooftop unit, though that is more popular in in the western United States. Installing a rooftop unit is a highly technical and dangerous job. It is imperative that you have a certified, licensed, bonded and experienced technician do the installation. You are putting your building; the occupants and your wallet at risk by having an inexperienced contractor install your unit.
