Securing Units Before a Hurricane

The photo on the left is the rooftop of a local school. Integrity Air replaced a failed air conditioner with a new ductless mini-split system (the outdoor section can be seen in the right foreground).

The original unit was set on 4' by 4' lumber laying on the roof. As you can see, the new outdoor section has been secured to the wall on a stainless steel bracket.

Securing the outdoor unit in this fashion is much stronger for our hurricane-prone area......also makes for easier roof replacement when needed.
