  • Roof-Safe Design: Non-penetrative rubber feet distribute weight evenly and prevent leaks or damage.
  • Weather Resistant: Galvanized steel and UV-resistant plastic withstand rain, snow, wind, and temperature extremes.
  • Sustainable & Reusable: Modular construction allows relocation or expansion; materials are recyclable.
  • OEM/ODM Available: Custom sizes, finishes, and packaging options for specific project needs.

Product Overview

The Big Foot Multi-Frame is engineered to simplify the installation of VRF/VRV outdoor units, heat pumps, air conditioners, and rooftop HVAC equipment. Its modular design allows easy expansion, while adjustable legs ensure stability on uneven surfaces.

Constructed from galvanized steel, UV-resistant plastic, and heavy-duty rubber feet, the system offers long-term durability and vibration reduction. It eliminates the need for roof penetration, protecting the building structure and reducing maintenance costs.

This makes it an ideal choice for contractors, engineers, distributors, and procurement managers seeking a reliable, safe, and cost-effective support solution.

In practice

A multi-frame ground support exists because outdoor units are rarely set on a perfect base. The single pad under one foot is enough when the slab is level and the unit is small; the moment the base is uneven, or the unit is large enough that four feet do not share the load evenly, the frame is what keeps the machine level and quiet instead of rocking and transmitting noise into the building.

The adjustable height is what makes it practical on site. Rather than ordering three different pad heights to match a base that is not quite what the drawing showed, the frame is set to the height the installer needs and locked. Check the unit is level in both directions after the frame has taken load, and again after the first season — an outdoor machine in weather always moves a little.

Common questions

How is a multi-frame support different from a single pad?
A single pad sits under one corner of the outdoor unit; a multi-frame spans the whole base and takes the load on all the unit’s feet at once. On a unit with four feet on an uneven base that difference is what stops the frame rocking.
Do I need it on a flat concrete pad?
On a flat, level pad a standard ground support is usually enough. The multi-frame earns its cost where the base is uneven, where the unit is large, or where wind uplift on an exposed roof is part of the design.
Can the height be adjusted after installation?
The adjustable heights are what the range is built around, so the setting can be corrected on site when the base is not quite what the drawing showed. Fit the frame, set the height, then check the unit is level in both directions.
