A chiller in a Las Vegas building was usually set before the walls closed around it. Getting the old one out and the new one in means a route through a mechanical room, a basement, or a roof — and often a crane on a city street. We plan and rig HVAC equipment across the Las Vegas metro, from the first opening to the last anchor bolt.
Quick answer: Badass Logistics provides chiller, boiler & HVAC rigging in Las Vegas, NV and the surrounding metro. We rig chillers, boilers, cooling towers, air handlers, and rooftop units into and out of mechanical rooms, basements, penthouses, and roofs — sectioned where the opening demands it and set ready for the mechanical contractor. Our crews work across Las Vegas and nearby Nevada metros, and moves between facilities run as project freight under the same plan — usually quoted the same day. Call (307) 284-1332.
The machine is rarely the hard part of an HVAC replacement. The route is. A centrifugal chiller headed for a basement plant room, a boiler that only fits through a wall, a cooling tower that has to go up past occupied floors — the plan is set by doors, corridors, slab capacity, and crane reach long before it is set by the unit. In Las Vegas, much of that work is in buildings that cannot shut down while it happens.
Badass Logistics walks both routes — the old unit's way out and the new unit's way in — and rigs them as one job. Refrigerant recovery, electrical disconnects, and piping stay with your licensed mechanical contractor; we sequence around them. Units are skated, jacked, or sectioned at factory joints where the builder allows it, and roof work runs as a planned crane lift. How to move a boiler or chiller →
Large HVAC plant in Las Vegas is concentrated in campuses that run around the clock. The metro's hospitals — University Medical Center of Southern Nevada, Sunrise Hospital and Medical Center, and Valley Hospital Medical Center — replace chillers and boilers without ever closing a wing. University of Nevada, Las Vegas runs central plants of their own, often in basements reached by one freight elevator or a single knockout wall.
Las Vegas, NV runs on construction & large-scale installs, and almost none of it stays put. Same crews and the same chiller and HVAC rigging standards across the region:
Strip casino resorts, convention centers, Harry Reid International Airport, and hospital campuses run some of the largest central chiller plants in the West. The equipment we rig for them includes:
On the industrial side, Las Vegas's plants are large-format distribution and logistics buildings concentrated in the Henderson and Apex industrial parks, built around rail spur access rather than an older urban industrial core, and process cooling there means chillers, towers, and air handlers set on mezzanines and roofs. That work concentrates in the Henderson Industrial Park, served by the city-owned BMI Branch rail spur and the Apex Industrial Park north of the city off Interstate 15.
Centrifugal, screw, and absorption chillers rigged out of and into plant rooms across the Las Vegas metro.
Fire-tube and water-tube boilers removed and set, sectioned where the opening demands it across the Las Vegas metro.
RTUs, cooling towers, and condensers lifted onto and off roofs across the Las Vegas metro.
AHUs and fan sections moved through buildings and set on curbs and pads across the Las Vegas metro.
Plenty of Las Vegas jobs start and finish on one floor. The rest have to travel — to a new building across the metro, a sister plant down I-15 and I-80, or a facility in another state. We don't hand that part off. It runs as project freight inside the same plan: machines crated or prepped on site, loads sequenced to the rig-out, transport through our licensed broker and carrier partners with dedicated capacity for bigger moves, and our crew waiting at the destination to set it.
Data centers are the other big buyer of cooling plant in Las Vegas. Switch Las Vegas campus (The Core) runs chillers, CRAH units, and condensers that are replaced and added on the facility's schedule, not the weather's.
