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.

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 !

This review is late coming so my apologies to the amazing Twin Tech team! I contacted Dave at Twin Tech for a quote this past Feb (as I was collecting a few) and his recommendation was excellent. From the first meeting with Dave to the team installing the new furnace, not once did i feel uncomfortable . The team were extremely professional yet personable and clean and tidy. Decent companies still exist!
The new furnace just purrs and its just amazing the difference it has made!
(PS my sibling ended up getting a furnace from them as well)

by Private User on Twintech Heating and Cooling

The service was Twintech was excellent.
Dave our salesperson was easy to talk to and was professional. The unit recommended meets our needs and budget.
Greg and his team arrived on time for the installation and even got rid of the garbage the contractors left in our furnace.
Would definitely recommend Twintech.

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 definitely recommend TwinTech!
