Measure the route, not only the pad
Record gate openings, turns, steps and overhead obstacles. Have the installer assess the selected unit and packaging against that route rather than assuming every replacement will fit.
HVAC · Clyde Hill, Washington
HVAC in Clyde Hill needs a practical route for getting the old equipment out and the new system in. Garden gates, narrow side paths and fixed screens can affect the replacement work even when the final unit location stays familiar.
Evergreen Home Pro helps you include handling and access in the equipment proposal. Share the route from the street to the installation area, with photos of gates, steps and obstacles, so the replacement method can be assessed before installation day.

Heating and cooling
Have the installer compare the selected equipment dimensions with the available delivery route and evaluate a suitable handling method. Identify anything that must be temporarily removed, protected or rebuilt. Include disposal of the old unit and restoration of affected access features so the proposal covers the complete exchange.
Record gate openings, turns, steps and overhead obstacles. Have the installer assess the selected unit and packaging against that route rather than assuming every replacement will fit.
Identify any screen panels, gates or garden features that need removal. Specify who handles protection, removal and reinstatement, including work outside the HVAC installer’s scope.
Ask how the old equipment will be disconnected, handled and disposed of by the appropriate trades. Keep those responsibilities and any additional handling equipment visible in the estimate.
Before work begins
Clyde Hill requires mechanical permits for installing or replacing listed equipment, including air conditioners and heat pumps. Unlike most over-the-counter mechanical permits, these units require a site plan for zoning review of their placement.
If access limitations lead to a different equipment position, update the site proposal and confirm the city review before installation. Describe any rebuilt screen, foundation or other site alteration separately; the mechanical application does not settle every related building question.
No. Compare the proposed equipment and packaging dimensions with gates, turns and obstacles, and have the installer establish a suitable handling method.
Identify that responsibility in the proposal before work starts. Include any separate trade, repair or restoration needed for the access arrangement.
Have the revised position checked against product requirements and city zoning review. Clyde Hill requires a site plan for heat-pump and air-conditioner placement.
