New
Arcoaireâ Small Package Products Feature Compact Design, Easy Installation
LEWISBURG,
Tenn., July 17, 2009 – International Comfort Products, LLC (ICP) introduces a new line of dealer-friendly Arcoaire® brand small package products in 13, 14 and 15 seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) efficiencies in a compact design for easy installation.
Available in two- through five-ton cooling capacities, this new small package line uses R-410A refrigerant and includes both premium-featured products and cost-competitive entry-level products at three efficiency levels and four configurations. Models include:
- Arcoaire PDS, PDD Dual Fuel models offer 13 SEER, up to 81 percent annual fuel utilization efficiency (AFUE) and up to 7.8 heating seasonal performance factor (HSPF) efficiency,
- Arcoaire PGS, PGD Gas/Electrics are available in 13, 14 and 15 SEER models with up to 81 percent AFUE efficiency,
- Arcoaire PHD Heat Pumps are available in 13, 14 and 15 SEER models with up to 8.0 HSPF efficiency,
- Arcoaire PAD Air Conditioner models are available in 13, 14 and 15 SEER efficiency.
The new Arcoaire small package product design is based on feedback from dozens of dealers from key markets across North America who participated in numerous ICP focus groups during the design process.
These dealer-friendly units offer several new benefits:
Quieter, More Comfortable
These new products feature quieter operation as a result of additional stability provided by a newly designed, formed top panel. The high-efficiency X-13 indoor blower motor delivers efficient airflow to provide homeowner comfort.
Tougher
Full perimeter galvanized steel base rails give the units extra stability. Mainline PDS and PGS models feature durable stainless steel heat exchangers that have high-temperature capability and resist corrosion.
Easier to install
These compact new units fit in the bed of a standard pick-up truck. None of them—even the 5-ton cooling capacity model—is wider than 45 inches or longer than 48 inches. Steel base rails make units easier to move and handle. These units are also designed for ground or rooftop applications; they are shipped for horizontal application and are easily converted to down-shot.
Easier to service
Three separate easy-access service panels have embossed images on each panel to indicate compressor access, blower compartment and control box. This enables service technicians to keep the unit on while running diagnostics, with one panel open and the others closed. Accessories available for the new small package units include manual dampers, filter racks, economizers and roof curbs.
Maximum Strength Warranties
Arcoaire Maximum Strength warranties cover the new small package products and include the following:
-
Up to 10 years of limited warranty coverage on parts, including the compressor,
-
Up to lifetime limited heat exchanger limited warranties,
-
Up to seven years of No Hassle Replacement™ limited warranty coverage.
The No Hassle Replacement limited warranty provides a new equivalent replacement unit if the heat exchanger, compressor or outdoor coil fails during the No Hassle Replacement limited warranty period (with a labor allowance for the dealer). Restrictions apply. Action may be required. Contact your local Arcoaire distributor for details.
U.S. HVAC Tax Credit
Many of the new Arcoaire brand small package products qualify for the 2009 U.S. HVAC tax credit. For a list of qualifying products, visit the GoArcoaire.com Web site.
These new products will be phased into production throughout the remainder of 2009. Check with your local Arcoaire distributor for availability in your area.
