A helicopter was brought in Friday morning by Peters Heating and Air Conditioning to lift six rooftop air conditioning units to the top of the old Orpheum Theater. The project was part of the ongoing renovation of the structure that is being done by The Crossing Church in Quincy, Ill.
According to Lucas Peters of Peters Heating and Air Conditioning, consideration was given to using a crane to lift the units to the roof.
“We decided the helicopter lift was going to be quicker and cause less damage,” he said.
Peters estimated that each one of the units weighs approximately 600 pounds.
The air lift started shortly before 8 a.m. when the helicopter arrived and took less than 15 minutes.
“Everything went perfect, just like we planned and they said it would,” said Peters.
