Luxaire® Optimum™ Core for Direct Replacement of 3-12.5 Ton Commercial Rooftop Units-The Right Fit

Using the Luxaire® Optimum™ Core for Direct Replacement of 3-12.5 Ton Commercial Rooftop Units

As older rooftop units reach the end of their life cycles, building owners have traditionally had two options. They are forced to either install a unit from the same manufacturer to fit an existing curb. Or, they need to install a unit from another manufacturer, but with the increased cost and complexity of using a curb adapter to fit an existing base. Luxaire® Optimum™ Core rooftops resolve this issue as the “go-to” replacement solution for 3-12.5 ton replacement jobs.
