Diversitech hpr-3bl Heat Pump Riser 3 Inches Black

Product Description

The DIVERSITECH hpr-3bl is a one-piece, 3-inch black heat pump riser designed to elevate condensers, heat pumps, and air handlers above grade. Rated for up to 500 pounds of load capacity, it provides a stable, durable base that keeps equipment safely above snow accumulation and standing water. The riser mounts using butyl mastic, creating a secure connection between the unit and its mounting surface. Licensed HVAC technicians and refrigeration mechanics install this riser during new equipment installations or when repositioning existing outdoor units.

This riser is most commonly used in residential and light commercial applications where heat pumps must be elevated above the seasonal snow line. Ice buildup from condensate drainage during heating mode can damage coils, and raising the unit reduces that risk significantly. It is suited for ducted systems including standard split-system heat pumps, condensing units, and air handlers that require a low-profile, stable support base in outdoor or semi-outdoor installations.

Key Features

• 3-inch elevation lifts equipment above snow accumulation and condensate ice buildup
• 500-pound load capacity supports full-size residential condensers and air handlers
• One-piece construction simplifies installation and eliminates alignment of multiple components
• Butyl mastic mounting method provides a secure, vibration-resistant bond to mounting surface
• Black color finish blends with standard outdoor equipment installations
• Suitable for ducted heat pump, condenser, and air handler applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style support riser for ducted residential and light commercial condensing units, heat pumps, and air handlers requiring 3 inches of base elevation.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed HVAC technician. Disconnect and lock out all electrical power to the unit before repositioning or placing equipment on the riser. Ensure the mounting surface is level, clean, and free of debris before applying the butyl mastic and seating the riser. Verify that the riser is fully loaded and stable before restoring power and returning the system to service.
