Features and Benefits

  • Swept Wing Fan Technology1 : Features quieter operation and improved unit acoustics
    Two-Stage Scroll Compressor2 : Features two speeds (high and low) of cooling and heating, providing more precise temperature control, lower humidity and greater efficiency when compared to single stage compressors

  • Inverted Reversing Valve: Allows for faster heat transfer with gravity assist shifting and reduced joint stress for increased reliability

  • Expanded Valve Space: 3 in. – 4 in. – 5 in. service valve space—provides a minimum working area of 27-square inches for easier access

  • Triple Service Access: 15 in. wide, industry leading corner service access, two fastener, removeable corner and individual louver panels—makes repairs easier and faster
