Aging or Failing Equipment
Years of service, declining performance or increasing repair frequency can be reasons to evaluate installing new equipment rather than continuing to repair an aging unit.

Rooftop UnitInstallation & Replacement
Repair It Guys installs and replaces commercial rooftop units and package RTUs throughout Tyler, Longview and East Texas — equipment sizing, electrical, curb and duct interface, condensate drainage, controls and startup verification.
Rooftop Unit Installation
New Equipment.Properly Installed.
Whether you're replacing an aging rooftop unit or installing equipment for new commercial space, an installation is only as good as the sizing, electrical, curb and duct interface, drainage and controls work behind it.
We evaluate the application, size and select appropriate equipment, and handle the electrical, mechanical and control work an installation involves — then verify the unit's operation before calling the job complete.

When to Consider It
Reasons BusinessesInstall New Equipment.
Insufficient Capacity
Additions, renovations or occupancy changes can leave existing equipment undersized for a building's current heating and cooling needs.
Obsolete Components or Refrigerant
Units built around discontinued parts or older refrigerants can become harder and more costly to keep in service over time.
New Construction or Tenant Buildout
New commercial space needs equipment sized and installed for its specific application from the start, rather than adapted from something else.
Repeated Service Calls
Equipment that keeps needing repair visits is worth evaluating against the practical option of installing new equipment.
Facility or Load Changes
Changes to how a space is used, the equipment it houses, or its occupancy can change what capacity and configuration actually make sense.
What Installation Involves
Every Installation IsEvaluated on Its Own Terms.
Equipment, application and building conditions vary from job to job, so a rooftop unit installation isn't the same construction or procedure every time. These are the areas we work through.
Evaluating Existing Equipment & Application
We start by looking at the existing equipment, if any, along with the building and how the space is used, to understand what the new installation needs to accomplish.
Equipment Sizing & Selection
Capacity, configuration and features are selected for the specific application — equipment options and specifications vary by manufacturer and model.
Electrical Requirements
New and replacement equipment has electrical requirements that depend on the unit selected and the building's existing electrical service.
Curb, Duct & Interface Considerations
How a new unit connects to the roof curb, ductwork and building interface depends on the equipment and the existing setup — not every installation requires the same construction.
Condensate Drainage
Condensate produced during operation needs a properly routed and connected drain line as part of a complete installation.
Controls & Thermostat Integration
Thermostats, economizers and other controls are wired and configured for the specific equipment installed — control architecture varies by manufacturer and model.
Startup & Operational Verification
After installation, the equipment is started and its operation is verified before the job is considered complete.

Drain-line piping installed as part of the job.
Getting the Details Right
Drainage Isn'tan Afterthought.
A rooftop unit produces condensate whenever it's cooling, and that water needs a properly routed and connected drain line to go somewhere it won't cause a problem. It's a detail that's easy to overlook but matters for the life of the installation.
Our Process
Evaluate First.Install With Confidence.
Evaluate
We evaluate the existing equipment, if any, the building and the application to understand the scope of the installation.
Size & Select
We work through capacity, configuration and equipment options appropriate for the specific application.
Install & Connect
The unit is set and connected, including electrical, curb/duct interface and condensate drainage.
Startup & Verify
We start the equipment, verify controls and confirm proper operation before the job is complete.

Frequently Asked Questions
Rooftop Unit Installation Questions
Straightforward answers for business owners, property managers and facility staff.
Equipment age, condition, repair history and available capacity all factor into that decision. We evaluate the existing equipment and explain the practical options, including installation of new equipment when that's the better fit.
Rooftop Unit / RTU RepairSizing depends on the building's application, load and other factors specific to the space — a straight one-to-one swap of the old unit's capacity isn't always the right approach. We evaluate the application before recommending a specific size and configuration.
It helps but isn't required. We evaluate the existing equipment and the application on site before discussing installation options.
Electrical requirements depend on the specific equipment selected and the building's existing electrical service, and are evaluated as part of the installation.
Curb, duct and interface requirements vary by the specific equipment and the existing setup — not every installation requires the same construction, so this is evaluated case by case rather than assumed.
Yes. Properly routing and connecting the condensate drain line is part of a complete rooftop unit installation.
Timelines depend on the equipment, the scope of electrical and curb/duct work involved, and the specific site. We'll walk through the scope of work for your installation before scheduling.
