Commercial Rooftop Unit (RTU) Preventive Maintenance Across NYC
Most rooftop units don't fail without warning — they fail because a belt, a coil, or a condensate drain was never serviced. Com+ Mechanical runs scheduled preventive maintenance on packaged RTUs of every make and tonnage so your equipment holds capacity, runs efficiently, and stops generating emergency calls. Built for property managers and building owners across the five boroughs and surrounding metro.
What Preventive Maintenance Catches Before It Becomes a Failure
Fouled condenser coils driving high head pressure
Rooftop coils pack with cottonwood, soot and grime every season. The unit runs hotter, draws more power, and trips on high-pressure lockouts in a heat wave. Scheduled coil cleaning restores capacity and protects the compressor.
Glazed, cracked or loose drive belts
Belts stretch, glaze and shed with heat and run hours. A belt that snaps on the hottest afternoon takes the airflow — and the cooling — with it. PM catches tension loss and replaces belts before they fail in service.
Clogged condensate drains and rusted drain pans
Biological growth and debris block the condensate trap until water backs up into the unit or onto the roof and ceiling below. We clear the drain, treat the pan and verify the float switch on every visit.
Economizer drifting out of calibration
Seized actuators, failed outdoor-air sensors and slipped linkages leave dampers stuck — bringing in hot outdoor air on a design day or never free-cooling when it should. Calibration recovers the energy savings the economizer was specified to deliver.
Refrigerant charge slowly drifting low
A small seasonal leak shows up first as rising superheat and falling capacity, long before a no-cooling call. Logging superheat, subcooling and pressures on a schedule lets us catch and trend a leak before the compressor starves.
Weak contactors, capacitors and loose lugs
Heat-cycled contactors pit, capacitors fall out of tolerance, and terminal lugs loosen — the leading causes of a unit that won't start. Inspecting and tightening the electrical section prevents the most common nuisance no-start.
Planned RTU Maintenance Built for Commercial Buildings
Packaged rooftop units carry the heating and cooling load for most commercial buildings in NYC — retail, office, restaurants, warehouses and mixed-use — and they live in the harshest spot on the property: full sun, wind-driven rain, rooftop grime and freeze-thaw cycles. Without a planned maintenance program, coils foul, belts glaze and snap, economizers seize, and condensate drains clog until a hot Monday becomes a tenant complaint and an after-hours invoice. Com+ Mechanical delivers scheduled, documented preventive maintenance on single-zone and multi-zone RTUs, gas/electric and heat-pump packages. We service them on a seasonal cadence — cooling-season and heating-season visits — clean what fouls, measure what drifts, tighten and align what wears, and hand building staff a condition report on every unit so capital decisions are made on data, not surprises.
What Our RTU Preventive Maintenance Covers
Why Property Managers Put RTUs on a Com+ Maintenance Program
Our Simple Process
From call to comfort in 4 easy steps
Rooftop survey & unit inventory
We walk the roof, inventory every unit by make, model, tonnage and age, confirm access and safety, and tag each RTU so the program is tracked unit-by-unit.
Scheduled seasonal visits
We set a cadence — typically cooling-season and heating-season visits — and put each unit on a task checklist so nothing is skipped from one visit to the next.
Service, measure & document
On each visit we clean, change filters, align belts, calibrate economizers, log refrigerant and electrical readings, and tune the gas-heat section — then record findings per unit.
Report & recommend
You receive a per-unit condition report with photos, flagged items, and clear repair-vs-replace guidance so budgeting and approvals are driven by data.

Heat-Pump Packaged Units
All-electric heat-pump rooftop units used in electrification and Local Law 97 strategies.

The Com+ Mechanical Difference
Commercial-only focus
We service packaged rooftop equipment every day across NYC — gas/electric, heat-pump and multi-zone RTUs — not the occasional residential split system.
Task-based, documented PM
Every visit follows a per-unit checklist aligned to commercial maintenance practice, and you get the readings and photos to prove the work and track condition over time.
Whole-portfolio coverage
One maintenance schedule, one point of contact, and consistent reporting for one rooftop or a hundred across multiple buildings and boroughs.
Maintenance that pays for itself
Clean coils, correct charge and calibrated economizers cut energy use and prevent the emergency failures that cost far more than the visit.
Transparent Pricing
No fees. No surprises. Just honest service.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about our services
How often should commercial rooftop units be maintained?
Most packaged RTUs in NYC are best served on a seasonal cadence — a cooling-season visit and a heating-season visit each year — with filter changes scheduled in between based on the building's filtration and run hours. Restaurants, high-occupancy and grease- or dust-heavy environments often warrant more frequent visits. We set the cadence after surveying your units.
Do you maintain rooftop units across multiple buildings or a whole portfolio?
Yes. We support property-management companies and owners with multi-site portfolios, putting every unit on one schedule with one point of contact and consistent per-unit reporting across buildings and boroughs — so you can compare condition and plan capital across the entire portfolio.
Will preventive maintenance actually lower our energy costs and help with Local Law 97?
Yes. Dirty condenser coils, low refrigerant charge and miscalibrated economizers are among the biggest energy drains on a rooftop unit. Cleaning coils, verifying charge and recalibrating economizers restores rated efficiency, which lowers kWh and therm consumption and reduces the emissions that count toward your building's Local Law 97 targets.
Do plan members get priority if a unit fails between visits?
Yes. Maintenance-agreement members receive priority response ahead of non-contract calls when something does come up between scheduled visits.
What's included in a single RTU maintenance visit versus a repair?
A preventive-maintenance visit is scheduled, task-based work to keep a healthy unit healthy — coil cleaning, filter changes, belt and bearing service, economizer calibration, refrigerant and electrical readings, and a gas-heat tune-up. If we find a failed or failing component, we document it and quote the repair separately so you approve any corrective work before it proceeds.
Do you coordinate roof access, COIs and building requirements?
Yes. We coordinate with building staff on roof access, certificates of insurance, tenant notice and safety requirements before each scheduled visit.
