RTU screening for Los Angeles commercial rooftops

LA's citywide design guidelines explicitly direct project teams to locate and screen rooftop equipment so it does not detract from the environment. Screening is a design guideline requirement that comes up in plan check and design review, not just a courtesy.

Local requirement

Rooftop equipment must be located and screened so it does not detract from the environment.

Typical project mix

Westside office campuses (Century City, Culver City, Santa Monica), Hollywood production facilities and studio-adjacent commercial, Downtown Los Angeles mixed-use towers and adaptive reuse, South Bay industrial-to-office conversions (El Segundo, Torrance, Hawthorne).

What we coordinate

Rooftop plans, elevations, attachment details, finish schedules, and service access paths.

Why choose CME?

Why RTU screens in Los Angeles

High-visibility corridors include Wilshire Boulevard - one of LA's primary commercial spines, high pedestrian and vehicle traffic through Koreatown, Westlake, and the Westside, Sunset Boulevard - mixed-use and entertainment corridor from Echo Park through West Hollywood to the Pacific Coast Highway, Hollywood Boulevard - high tourist volume, design-sensitive corridor. Rooftop screening quality is easy to see from streets and nearby buildings in this market.

Access and staging

Traffic congestion affects freight delivery windows - early AM delivery often necessary in dense areas, Parking and staging restrictions on Hollywood Boulevard, Wilshire, and other major corridors, HOA and building management approval required for rooftop access on many mixed-use projects.
