What Is A RTU Unit?

An RTU (Rooftop Unit) is an air conditioning unit installed on the roof of a building and is commonly used for heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems in commercial and industrial buildings.

Functions

Heating and Cooling: RTUs are capable of providing heating and cooling functions to regulate indoor temperatures.

Ventilation: Usually equipped with a ventilation system to ensure indoor air circulation and fresh air introduction.

Key Features

All-in-one design: RTUs often incorporate a compressor, condenser, evaporator and fan in one unit for easy installation and maintenance.

Energy efficient: Many modern RTU designs focus on energy efficiency, helping to reduce energy consumption.

Control systems: Equipped with thermostats and other control systems that automatically adjust operation according to the needs of the building.

Benefits

Space saving: Being mounted on the roof, RTUs do not take up valuable space inside the building.

Easy to maintain: Roof mounting makes maintenance and overhauling relatively easy.

Versatility: Suitable for many different types of buildings, such as shopping centers, office buildings and factories.

Applications

Commercial buildings: Widely used in retail stores, office buildings and restaurants.

Industrial facilities: in factories and warehouses to regulate the temperature and humidity of the working environment.
