Upgrade Your Rooftop Units.
Lower Your Operating Cost.
Why Duel-Fuel Rooftop Units?
Dual fuel roof top heating units (RTUs), also known as hybrid RTUs, are space heating and cooling systems that intelligently switch between high-efficiency heat pump and a natural gas burner, based on outdoor temperature, to optimize energy use and comfort. These systems can work separately, with most heating provided by the heat pump or, in combination under colder operating conditions, with supplementary heat provided by gas combustion.
Improved Efficiency
Modern systems are designed to operate more efficiently than aging equipment.
Lower Operating Costs
Dual-fuel units support long-term reliability and evolving operational needs.
Fast Payback
In many cases, upgraded units deliver a return on investment in as little as 1.4 years.
Here to Help
Choice Properties is rolling out a financing program in upgrading rooftop units with modern dual-fuel systems designed to improve efficiency, reliability, and long-term performance.
