Packaged Unit Installation Technical Guide for Henderson
Packaged Unit Installation: Single-Cabinet Simplicity
Packaged units offer advantages for homes without space for separate indoor and outdoor components. With everything in one cabinet, there's no refrigerant line set to run between units, no indoor closet or attic space needed for an air handler, and the entire system can be serviced from one location. Installation involves setting the unit on a rooftop curb or ground-level pad, connecting the supply and return ductwork, running electrical and gas connections, and configuring the controls.
Installation Specifics
- Curb adapter matching — The rooftop curb (the frame that connects the unit to your ductwork through the roof) must match the new unit's footprint. When replacing with a different brand or model, a transition adapter or new curb may be required.
- Structural considerations — Packaged units weigh 300-800+ lbs. We verify roof structural capacity and use cranes for rooftop placement. The mounting platform must be level and properly flashed to prevent roof leaks.
- Duct transition — The connection between the packaged unit and the home's duct system is critical. We seal and insulate the transition thoroughly to prevent the energy losses that are common in poorly installed rooftop connections.
- Electrical and gas — Packaged units require a dedicated electrical circuit and disconnect switch at the unit location. Gas models need a properly sized gas line run to the rooftop or pad location.
Henderson Neighborhood HVAC Equipment Profile
From an equipment perspective, Henderson's 1950s to present construction means our technicians encounter a wide range of air handlers, split systems, packaged units, and thermostats across different neighborhood sections.
- Water Street District (1950s-1970s original Henderson homes) — Mix of packaged rooftop units and early split systems. Many thermostats are basic manual models overdue for programmable upgrades.
- MacDonald Ranch (2000s custom and semi-custom homes) — Multi-zone systems with zone dampers and communicating thermostats. Air handlers in garage or attic locations.
- Cadence (2015-present new construction) — Smart thermostats, variable-speed air handlers, and communicating systems. Some homes feature mini-split supplemental cooling.
Where We Serve in Henderson
We serve Henderson neighborhoods including Water Street District, Inspirada, Cadence, MacDonald Ranch, Mission Hills, and McCullough Hills and surrounding communities.
Why do Henderson homes have so many different HVAC system ages?
Henderson's development spans from the 1950s (Water Street) through today (Cadence), creating a 70+ year construction range — the widest in the valley. This means our technicians encounter everything from original R-22 systems to modern smart HVAC on Henderson calls.
Does Henderson's elevation affect my HVAC system?
Yes. Henderson sits at 1,867 feet with some areas reaching 3,000+ feet. Higher-elevation areas like Anthem and Seven Hills are 5-8°F cooler than the valley floor, meaning shorter AC seasons but colder winters that put more demand on heating systems.
Packaged Unit Installation Priorities for Henderson Homes
Packaged unit installation in Henderson places the entire HVAC system outdoors (typically on the roof or a ground pad), requiring careful structural assessment, ductwork routing, and weatherproofing. Henderson packaged unit service covers residential ground-mount installations, commercial rooftop units, and mixed-use applications across the city's diverse construction. The city's variety of building ages means packaged unit technology ranges from 1990s fixed-speed models to current variable-speed commercial units. Henderson's specific commercial HVAC permitting requirements apply to packaged unit installations, and our crews handle permits and inspections as part of every project.
