HVAC

Rooftop air handling units provide ideal shelter for pest birds like pigeons, making them ideal for nighttime roosts and nests. Unfortunately, nesting debris, feathers, and bird droppings can easily flow into intake vents, blocking fresh airflow. This can lead to costly maintenance, repairs, and an unhealthy atmosphere inside.

Our bird control products protect HVAC equipment easily and with minimal added expense.

Below are the top bird problem areas of ledges of various types and the how we solve them.

ATOP EXTERIOR UNITS

No Loafing Zone

Commercial rooftop HVAC units are excellent perches for pest birds to land on because their raised surfaces provide an excellent vantage points for foraging and spotting predators. These upper surfaces then become plastered with bird droppings that can be distributed throughout the building.

Stop pest birds from perching on top your HVAC units with simple landing deterrents from Bird Barrier.

ATOP CAVITIES OF EXTERNAL UNITS

Don’t Let Birds Make Your HVAC Into a Home

Protected cavities on rooftop HVAC units are ideal places for pest birds to build nests because they have adequate shelter from the elements as well as water when puddles form after a heavy rain. However, debris and bird droppings can be pulled into the HVAC unit’s intake, causing maintenance headaches.

UNDER & AROUND EXTERNAL UNITS

Prevent Cozy Pigeon Caves

In addition to protected cavities atop HVAC units, cavities below rooftop HVAC units are prime nesting spots for pest bird. Pigeons especially love the coziness of the low clearances below HVAC units as it mimics their natural habitat in cliffside alcoves.

Fortunately, it can be easy to stop birds from nesting under HVAC units by using effective bird control products to seal them off and otherwise deny access to unwanted avian squatters.

Massive Bird Damage on HVAC

Get in the Pit and Try to Love Someone

HVAC pits or HVAC wells are prime spots for colonies of pest birds to stake their claims. These large areas are extremely well-protected and can have room for hundreds of pest birds at a time! The volume of debris and bird droppings can cause rooftop drains to clog quickly and if they do, these recessed areas can fill with rainwater and cause extensive damage to the roof and building beneath!

EXTERNAL INTAKE GRATES

Don’t Forget About the Details

Access points for ventilation and other building infrastructure are attractive to pest birds because they offer relative isolation and protection from the elements. When birds are present, these intake grates can allow dangerous pathogens like bird dropping, or nesting material into your building.

Don’t overlook these sometimes forgotten areas. Bird Barrier’s professional bird control solutions will keep birds away from ventilation intake grates.

Small but Significant

Fortunately, their small size compared to rooftop units make them easier to protect with Bird Barrier’s effective ledge bird deterrents.
