When an Edgewood homeowner noticed their outdated rooftop systems struggling to keep up with New Mexico’s temperature swings, they called B. Carlson Heating, Air Conditioning & Plumbing for help. Our team performed a complete replacement of two rooftop package units, ensuring efficient heating and cooling for the home year-round.
Job Overview
- Location: Edgewood, NM
- Client Type: Residential
- Scope: HVAC system replacement — dual rooftop package units with new curb adapters, electrical connections, and gas line updates
- Equipment Installed: Coleman LX Series 16 SEER 2-stage heat / 2-stage cool variable-speed package units
- Why It Mattered: The original rooftop systems were past their service life, inefficient, and failing to provide balanced airflow. A full upgrade restored comfort and reliability while meeting current energy-efficiency standards.
What We Found
During inspection, our HVAC specialists identified both rooftop systems as outdated and under-performing. Components showed signs of wear and corrosion, and the units required frequent maintenance to maintain operation. Because they were mounted on a flat roof, replacing them would require precise curb alignment and crane coordination for safe removal and installation.
The Solution
Our licensed technicians managed the entire process from start to finish. Using a scheduled crane lift, the team removed both aging units and installed two new high-efficiency Coleman package systems. The project included custom curb adapters, new gas drip-leg updates, and electrical disconnect replacements to ensure code compliance and safe operation.
Each system was properly leveled, charged, and tested for airflow, refrigerant balance, and performance. Post-installation meter readings confirmed both units were operating efficiently, ready for inspection, and optimized for long-term reliability.
