Diversitech hpr-3bl Heat Pump Riser 3 Inches Black

Product Description

The DIVERSITECH hpr-3bl is a one-piece black heat pump riser that lifts condensers, heat pumps, and air handlers 3 inches off the ground. Licensed HVAC technicians and installation crews use this riser to elevate equipment above typical snow accumulation lines, reducing ice buildup on coils caused by condensate drainage during heating operation. The unit supports up to 500 pounds of load and mounts using butyl mastic for a secure, vibration-damping base. Its single-piece construction simplifies placement and eliminates alignment issues common with multi-piece designs.

This riser is suited for residential and light commercial ducted HVAC installations where ground-level equipment needs to be raised to protect coil integrity during winter operation. Typical applications include outdoor heat pump condenser units and ground-mounted air handlers in regions with seasonal snow or standing water. The 3-inch elevation also promotes drainage clearance beneath the unit, reducing corrosion risk at the base of the cabinet.

Key Features

• 3-inch elevation lifts equipment above snow line to protect coils from ice damage
• 500-pound load capacity suits most residential and light commercial condensing units
• One-piece design simplifies placement and eliminates multi-piece alignment issues
• Butyl mastic mounting method provides secure adhesion and vibration dampening
• Black color finish for low-visibility ground-level installation
• Compatible with ducted heat pump and air handler applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style support riser for ducted residential heat pump condenser units and ground-mounted air handlers requiring 3 inches of elevation clearance.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed HVAC technician as part of new equipment commissioning or a seasonal service call. Power to the unit must be disconnected at the disconnect box before any repositioning or mounting work is performed. Ensure the installation surface is level, clean, and capable of supporting the combined weight of the riser and equipment. Follow local mechanical codes and the equipment manufacturer guidelines for minimum clearance and pad mounting requirements.
