Can I change the position of my outdoor A/C unit?

Posted On: April 5, 2023

Can I change the position of my outdoor A/C unit?

The box is not fixed to the floor and I would like to change the position box to the left but tje black tubes are very rigid.


Any advise? 


Question from user llum-foc-destruccio at AirConditioners at reddit.


Answer:


Yes, it is possible to change the position of your outdoor air conditioning (A/C) unit, but it's important to consider a few factors before doing so:


  1. Accessibility: Ensure that the new location provides easy access to the unit for maintenance, repairs, and cleaning. Technicians will need sufficient space to work around the unit, so consider factors such as clearance, pathways, and safety.


  2. Airflow and ventilation: The A/C unit requires proper airflow and ventilation to function efficiently. Choose a location that allows for adequate airflow, free from obstructions such as shrubs, fences, or walls that could impede the airflow and affect performance.


  3. Noise considerations: Air conditioning units can generate noise during operation. Take into account the new location's proximity to living spaces or neighbors' properties to minimize noise disturbance.


  4. Local regulations and guidelines: Check with your local authorities or homeowner's association to ensure compliance with any regulations or guidelines regarding the placement of A/C units. There may be specific requirements or restrictions in your area.


  5. Professional assistance: It's recommended to consult with a qualified HVAC technician before moving the A/C unit. They can assess the new location and provide guidance on any necessary modifications or considerations.


Remember, the installation and relocation of A/C units involve electrical connections and refrigerant lines, which should be handled by trained professionals to ensure safety and proper functioning.

Very pleased with the installation of our new furnace and A/C unit. From quotation stage to the completion of the job Twintech was very professional.
Thank you for a job well done.

by Darren, Pickering on Twintech Heating and Cooling

My old water heater quit on me. I called TwinTech. In less than 4 days, I had my new water heater installed and the old one taken away. The whole process was quick, easy, pleasant, and well done. This is the third time I've dealt with TwinTech and I've been satisfied each time.

by Private User on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I had them replace my furnace last year. When it came time for the air conditioner this year, I did not hesitate to call Twintech again. I will also have them perform regular maintenance on them.

by Robert, Ajax on Twintech Heating and Cooling

We required a new HVAC replacement after running the old
system for 18 years.
Dave understood our requirements and gave us a quote that
covered all the necessary items.
Installation was fast and very tidy. Everything works as
it should. Our thanks to Greg, Mitch and others for their
excellent work. Recommend this family owned business to
anyone else, considering HVAC or other work.

by John Armstrong, Pickering on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I needed a new furnace and A/C to replace my 21 yr. old units, and went to the internet to view potential companies in May, I received 3 quotes,
and chose Twintech based on their salesman Dave who was very detailed and covered off everything on what Twintech was all about,
an extremely dedicated company with so many years of experience, and after reading the on line reviews I was sold on Twintech, who did not disappoint as the installation team were top notch with Greg leading,
I would highly recommend this company without any doubts, in my books they are first class all the way. Our new Amana furnace and A/C are working perfectly !

by Aaron on Twintech Heating and Cooling

We are very happy to recommend this company to everyone. Our furnace broke down on Sunday morning. We phoned them and before noon Grant the owner showed up. He worked on the furnace for about a hour not wanting to give up to fix the problem. The furnace was 17 years old. I was the one talking about replacing it. End result was the next day it was all done. On the Sunday Bob came over with heaters to warm up the house. We decided to replace the water heater at the same time. Thanks Grant for the excellent work. Thumbs up.

by Linda on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Right on time. Explained how to work the HRV in a different way so the house would not be so dry. Changed my whole house water filter for me as well. Friendly, helpful, caring service!

We were new homeowners in need of a second opinion. TwinTech Heating & Cooling were Amazing and professional. Very knowledgeable and great service all around. Recommend to anyone looking for honest and reliable services. Treated with respect and care. Thank you Greg, Mitch and Bob!

by Ruth on Twintech Heating and Cooling

TwinTech is an excellent and honest company! I called them for a second opinion after being told by another company that I needed to replace my furnace. Turns out this was not the case at all! I did not need a new furnace. TwinTech did not push to make an unnecessary sale and saved me from a huge expense. Bob and Mitch were extremely professional and above all honest! I definitely recommend TwinTech!
