Rooftop Unit Service in Fremont, CA

Packaged rooftop units are the workhorses of East Bay commercial real estate. Retail centers, warehouses, offices, schools and light industrial buildings depend on them, and they take the full brunt of sun, wind and salt air. We repair, maintain and replace RTUs of every size and configuration: gas/electric, heat pump, cooling-only, single-zone constant volume and multi-zone VAV.

Diagnostics

Common failures and what they mean

Fault 01

Unit runs but no cooling

Failed compressor, contactor, capacitor or refrigerant loss. We check the whole circuit and confirm airflow before replacing components.

Fault 02

Heating locks out in cold mornings

Dirty flame sensors, failed igniters, cracked heat exchangers or blocked flues. A cracked heat exchanger is a safety issue and requires unit shutdown.

Fault 03

Noise and vibration on the roof

Worn belts, failed bearings, out-of-balance fans or loose panels. Left alone these turn into motor and shaft failures.

Fault 04

High energy bills from an economizer that never closes

The unit conditions 100% outside air year-round. Economizer repair typically pays back within one season.
