Our approach to rooftop package unit maintenance is simple: predictable visits, clear documentation, and proactive tune-ups that help avoid emergency calls and extend system life.
Rooftop Package Unit Maintenance That Protects Your Building All Year
Rooftop package unit maintenance in Boston means more than a quick look at your equipment. It’s a structured program of inspections, cleaning, and adjustments that keeps rooftop systems operating safely and efficiently in freezing winters, humid summers, and everything in between.
Because rooftop units sit in the open air, they face snow, salt, debris, and rapid temperature swings. Without regular maintenance, coils load up with dirt, belts wear out, drains clog, and controls drift out of calibration — leading to comfort complaints, higher energy use, and surprise failures.
Our technicians inspect every major component of your rooftop package units, from filters and fans to burners, compressors, and economizers. We note emerging issues, complete the maintenance tasks you approved, and give you clear recommendations so you can plan budgets instead of reacting to emergencies.
We also coordinate access with building staff, protect roof membranes while we work, and leave the area clean. For multi-tenant properties, we schedule visits to minimize disruption for offices, retail spaces, and restaurants that depend on consistent comfort to stay open.
Our goal is straightforward — fewer breakdowns, better comfort, and rooftop equipment that lasts longer and runs more efficiently.
- Seasonal maintenance plans tailored to Boston’s climate
- Thorough coil cleaning, belt checks, and filter replacement
- Economizer, airflow, and control calibration for efficiency
- Roof-safe access methods and detailed maintenance reports
We work with rooftop package units every day for office buildings, shopping centers, mixed-use properties, and light industrial sites across Greater Boston. Instead of waiting for equipment to fail, we build rooftop maintenance programs that keep systems steady and predictable.
Our team services both heating and cooling rooftop equipment, including:
- Gas and electric rooftop package units for commercial buildings
- Multi-zone rooftop systems serving offices, retail, and restaurants
- Filter, belt, coil, and drain maintenance for rooftop equipment

Operations Manager • Downtown Office Building
We moved our rooftop units onto a maintenance program with AirWise and the difference was immediate. Fewer hot and cold calls, cleaner reports, and no last-minute surprises when the seasons changed.
General Manager • Neighborhood Fitness Center
Our rooftop units were struggling to keep the gym cool in the summer. During the first maintenance visit they cleaned the coils, balanced airflow, and flagged a few worn parts. Members noticed the comfort improvement within days.
Owner • Corner Market
The team coordinated access with our roof vendor, followed safety rules, and kept us updated the whole time. We get a clear summary after each visit, which makes it easy to explain HVAC budgets to ownership.
Facilities Lead • Research Lab
Our rooftop equipment serves several temperature-sensitive spaces. AirWise tuned the units, verified readings across zones, and documented everything for our compliance file. The process was organized and efficient.
Owner • Bakery & Café
They scheduled rooftop work outside our busiest hours and kept both kitchen and seating areas comfortable. The crew was respectful, organized, and left everything tidy when they finished.
Property Manager • Multi-Building Complex

How often should rooftop package units be serviced?
Most commercial rooftop units in Boston benefit from at least two maintenance visits per year — one before cooling season and one ahead of heating season. Heavily used buildings, coastal locations, or sites with dirty outdoor air may need additional checks. During our first assessment, we recommend a schedule based on how your equipment is used.
What do you do during a rooftop maintenance visit?
A typical maintenance visit includes filter and belt checks, coil and drain inspection and cleaning as needed, fan and motor checks, burner or heat section review, refrigerant circuit inspection, safety testing, and control verification. We also look for signs of wear, roof-related issues around the unit, and any conditions that could cause future breakdowns.
Can rooftop maintenance really reduce energy costs?
Yes. Dirty coils, restricted airflow, incorrect economizer settings, and failing components all force rooftop units to work harder than they should. Regular maintenance helps restore proper heat transfer and airflow, which typically leads to more stable operation and can lower energy consumption over time.
Do you offer maintenance plans for multiple buildings?
We work with both single-building owners and portfolio managers. Our team can inventory rooftop units across several sites, group them into routes, and provide a consolidated maintenance plan with coordinated scheduling and reporting for each property.
Will maintenance visits disrupt tenants or business operations?
We plan rooftop work around your busiest times and access requirements. Most tasks are performed outdoors on the roof, and we coordinate any necessary interior access with your staff. Before we start service, we’ll review your schedule and any building rules so visits are as smooth and unobtrusive as possible.
