Packaged Unit Installation Technical Guide for Paradise
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.
Paradise Neighborhood HVAC Equipment Profile
From an equipment perspective, Paradise's 1960s to 2000s construction means our technicians encounter a wide range of air handlers, split systems, packaged units, and thermostats across different neighborhood sections.
- East Tropicana / UNLV area (1960s-1980s established residential) — Mix of split and packaged systems. Older thermostats. Equipment access sometimes limited by additions and renovations over decades.
- South Maryland Parkway corridor (1970s-1990s residential neighborhoods) — Standard split systems. Some older homes with packaged rooftop units.
- Eastern Avenue / Sunset area (1980s-2000s newer sections) — Standard split systems with programmable thermostats.
Where We Serve in Paradise
We serve Paradise neighborhoods including UNLV area, McCarran/Harry Reid Airport corridor, Paradise Palms, Eastside, and the Convention Center District and surrounding communities.
Does the urban heat island affect my HVAC costs in Paradise?
Yes. Paradise sits at peak urban heat island — concrete, asphalt, and commercial density amplify temperatures above surrounding areas. Your AC runs more hours per day than it would in an elevated or suburban location, increasing both energy costs and component wear.
My Paradise home has been renovated — does that affect HVAC service?
Renovated and expanded homes often have HVAC systems that no longer match the current floor plan. The original system may be undersized for added rooms, and ductwork may not reach additions. We evaluate the entire layout to identify and solve these mismatch issues.
Packaged Unit Installation Priorities for Paradise Homes
Packaged unit installation in Paradise places the entire HVAC system outdoors (typically on the roof or a ground pad), requiring careful structural assessment, ductwork routing, and weatherproofing. Paradise has significant packaged unit density due to its commercial-residential mix near the Las Vegas Strip. Hotels, restaurants, retail spaces, and office buildings throughout Paradise use rooftop packaged units that operate year-round in one of the harshest environments for HVAC equipment. Residential packaged units in Paradise are less common but present in multi-family properties and older single-family homes where they were installed as space-saving solutions.
