Features of your new air conditioner

Cool Summer Oer

On those hot sweltering summer days and long restless nights, there is no better escape from the heat than the cool

comforts of home. Your new air conditioner brings an end to exhausting hot summer days and lets you rest.

This summer, beat the heat with your own air conditioner.

Cost Ecient System

Your new air conditioner not only provides maximum cooling power in the summer, but can also be an ecient heating

method in the winter with the advanced“Heat pump”system. This technology is up to 300% more ecient than electrical

heating, so you can further reduce its running cost. Now, meet year-round needs with one air conditioner.

Flexible installation

Duct type air conditioner is designed to be slimmer and oers dierent solutions for any shape room allowing for specic

air ow requirements. Also, the air intake can be set up on either the bottom or rear of the unit, so there is more exibility in

installation.

ENERGY STAR qualied model only

- Proper sizing and installation of equipment is critical to achieve optimal performance. Split

system air conditioners and heat pumps (excluding ductless systems) must be matched with

appropriate coil components to meet ENERGY STAR criteria. Ask your contractor for details or
