Would anyone have the physical weight of a 10-ton replacement compressor?

Thanks.

    No details available.

    This is simply a guess on approximate weight...assuming 300 to 400 pounds.

    This was part of a extended service warranty proposal for 37 roof-top units on top of a 3-story building...crane and manpower would be involved to replace any defective compressors.

    Bill , 10 ton a/c comps.

    I checked several mfgs " tin can' units and they all are under 200 #, But that is a long tug of war up 3 stories on a hot Aug afternoon. My days of carrying those blessed things up an extension ladder on my shoulder are over.Semi-hermetics seem to be between 300-500# depending on who makes it.Most sign co.s will rent a small crane or boom truck on a 2 hr. min for pick,drop and run jobs like this. In my area under $ 400.00. Hope this helps some.JC.
