Product Description
The DIVERSITECH hpr-6bl is a one-piece, 6-inch black heat pump riser designed to elevate condensers, heat pumps, and air handlers above ground level. Rated for up to 500 pounds of load capacity, this riser mounts using butyl mastic for a secure, stable installation. Its primary function is lifting heat pump equipment above the snow line, reducing the risk of coil damage caused by ice buildup from condensate drainage during heating operation. Licensed HVAC technicians and service pros install this riser during new equipment placement or when relocating existing outdoor units in climates with seasonal snow accumulation.
The hpr-6bl is suited for ducted residential and light commercial HVAC applications where outdoor unit elevation is required. It supports condensers, heat pumps, and air handlers that need clearance from grade to prevent freeze damage and standing water contact. The 6-inch height addresses typical snow-line elevation requirements in moderate-snowfall regions. This riser is part of a product line available in multiple sizes, piece counts, and colors for varied installation requirements.

Installation Notes
Installation is performed by licensed HVAC technicians during equipment commissioning or service calls involving unit relocation. Power to the unit must be disconnected at the disconnect box and breaker before lifting or repositioning any outdoor equipment. Ensure the installation surface is level and stable before setting the riser and unit in place. Follow local mechanical codes and manufacturer equipment guidelines for clearance and support requirements.
