Knowing How Rooftop Equipment Screens Can Protect The HVAC

By Jason Butler


Most of the rural business locations have their HVAC or heat, ventilation, and air conditioning systems on the grounds outside their buildings. However, in the urban, ground spaces may not always allow the HVAC equipment to be installed because the space may not be enough. So therefore, these are often installed on the roofs.

The equipment is being considered as very beneficial to users. And thus, when businesses plan to have the external HVAC system and placed on roofs, it is a good suggestion that they must purchase the rooftop equipment screens to protect the system. These screens are structures that are made sturdy and designed top provide protection to the exterior rooftop tool. According to some, these are unnecessary types of investment, not knowing how can these provide great advantages.

Protecting it from rain and from snow. Even though this tool is resilient already to snow, rain, and ice, since it is installed on rooftop, meaning, the unit has still more precipitation because of facing the said conditions regularly. But with the screens, the excessive exposure of the unit to snow, rain, and moisture will be reduced, resulting to being more usable and more efficient. Screens are designed to block out moisture while still allowing air to flow.

To protect it from wind. If an equipment is situated higher, it is expected that exposure to wind becomes stronger because it is on higher grounds. Damages on the tool are very possible because of an excessive wind. And thus, the owners of buildings are recommended to have these screens installed for avoiding more damages.

These are best recommended especially for buildings with several stories. The materials are made from wind resilient ones which can be able to withstand the strong gusts that can normally cause some minor or even major damages to the equipment. And likewise, other items that will blow around along with the wind cannot past these protective barriers.

Protecting the aesthetic appearances of buildings. Matching the screen color with the building maybe done through applying a coat. And even if the color blends with roof color, the boxy tool will stand out still, thus, providing a more enticing appearance. A crowded and a cluttered look is often brought by this HVAC tool but can be eliminated by these screens.

Security is also an important advantage because it provides a limited access into the tool. Manufacturers may offer hinged doors or any other options of locking styles and hardware with the screens. It can help to ensure customers have a secured HVAC, unless moving or servicing is needed.

Being tamper proof is another benefit that sight proof blades can provide. The customers are rest assured that there is integrity in the enclosures. Checking this can be done by barring the ability of both hands and tools on slipping into the blades.

Different mounting options may also be offered by the manufacturers in which they are going to provide some optional structural calculations. This can ensure that there is a structural integrity, most especially in the geographic areas where there is an extreme weather. Manufacturers can verify that the integrity of product is maintained.
