• New composite base pan – dampens sound, captures louver
panels, eliminates corrosion and reduces number of fasteners
needed
• Improved tubing design – reduces vibration and stress, mak-
ing unit quieter and reducing opportunity for leaks
• Optimized defrost characteristics - decrease defrosting and
provide better home comfort
• Powder coat paint system – for a long lasting professional finish
• Optimized reversing valve sizing – improves shifting perfor-
mance for quieter unit operation and increased life of the
system
• Enhanced mufflers – help to dissipate vibration energy for
quieter unit operation
• Scroll compressor – a sound abating feature added to the
compressor significantly reduces noise when system transi-
tions in and out of defrost mode
• Modern cabinet aesthetics – increased curb appeal with visu-
ally appealing design
• Curved louver panels – provide ultimate coil protection,
enhance cabinet strength, and increased cabinet rigidity
• Optimized fan orifice – optimizes airflow and reduces unit
sound
• Rust resistant screws – confirmed through 1500-hour salt
spray testing
• PlusOne™ Expanded Valve Space – 3"-4"-5" service valve
space – provides a minimum working area of 27-square
inches for easier access
• Integrated heat pump lift receptacle – allows standard CPVC
stands to be inserted into the base
• PlusOne™ Triple Service Access – 15" wide, industry lead-
ing corner service access – makes repairs easier and faster.
The two fastener removable corner allows optimal access to
internal unit components. Individual louver panels come out
once fastener is removed, for faster coil cleaning and easier
cabinet reassembly
• Diagnostic service window with two-fastener opening –
provides access to the TXV valves and the heat pump revers-
ing valve before opening the unit.
• External gauge port access – allows easy connection of
“low-loss” gauge ports
• Single-row condenser coil – makes unit lighter and allows thor-
ough coil cleaning to maintain “out of the box” performance
• 35% fewer cabinet fasteners and fastener-free base – allow
for faster access to internal components and hassle-free
panel removal
• Service trays – hold fasteners or caps during service calls
• QR code – provides technical information on demand for
faster service calls
• Fan motor harness with extra-long wires – allows unit top to
be removed without disconnecting fan wire
