Greenheck Launches New Series of Rooftop Units

Air movement, control, and conditioning solutions provider Greenheck recently launched a new line of rooftop units that merge the conveniences of traditional rooftop ventilators and dedicated outdoor air systems, according to a news release. The Model RT controls temperature and humidity for indoor comfort. It currently comes in two cabinet sizes, the RT-70 (airflow from 2000 to 7900 cfm) and the RT-120 (airflow from 3500 to 13,000 cfm).

The Model RT comes with a variety of industry-leading features. Its energy-efficiency capabilities include “inverter scroll compressors that modulate to deliver precise cooling and dehumidification performance while improving part-load efficiency,” the news release reports. The direct drive supply and exhaust fans offer standard modulation capabilities for variable air volume (VAV) systems. Similarly, “[e]lectronically commutated (EC) motors on condenser fans modulate to control head pressure and improve efficiency. Factory-programmed controls simplify start-up, allowing for easy field adjustment and flexible unit operation in various applications.”

The exterior cabinet is prepainted and features double-wall construction with foam insulation for both sound dampening and air-leakage purposes. Additional, non-standard features and options include air-source heat pumps of up to 30 tons for fully electric heating and cooling; modulating hot gas reheat (HGRH); modulating powered exhaust to maintain pressure; and modulating gas furnaces for more accurate temperature control, the news release reports.

More cabinet sizes will be released later in 2025. More information is available on the Greenheck website.
