  • 7mm Condenser Copper Coil: Requires less refrigerant allowing for a smaller and lighter footprint while enhancing reliability
  • PlusOne® Expanded Valve Space: 3 in. – 4 in. – 5 in. service valve space – provides a minimum working area of 27-square inches for easier access
  • PlusOne® Triple Service Access: 15 in. wide, industry leading corner service access, two fastener, removeable corner and individual louver panels – makes repairs easier and faster
  • Swept Wing Fan Technology1: Features quieter operation and improved unit acoustics.
  • Designing for Sustainability with Low GWP: For 2025, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has set a global warming potential (GWP) limit of 700 for refrigerant used in heating and cooling systems. This new requirement will result in a 78%2 lower GWP than previous-generation refrigerants — with only minimal changes to system installation. For us, this is another step toward our continued sustainability goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions, while still delivering an exceptional level of energy efficient, dependable comfort
  • PlusOne® Refrigerant Detection System™3: An integrated one-box, patented design featuring the A2L sensor and mitigation board, offering easier commissioning with a single component and simplified wiring configuration, compatibility with any 24V thermostat application and system protection by automatically pausing outdoor unit operation — if excess refrigerant is detected
