ACiQ's Extreme+ heat pump systems provide a level of comfort that is rivaled by none - a high-performance, self-adjusting, mini-split-style inverter condenser matched to a communicating air handler that will attach seamlessly to your existing ductwork for easy installation.
How is it different from other heat pumps?
- Traditional heat pumps rely on expensive heat strips below 30°F
- ACiQ Extreme+ heat pumps save up to 75% in temps below 30°F
- Extreme+ heat pump systems provide the best possible performance regardless of climate
- Variable BTU inverter ramps up and down to match demand
- Smart system with soft startups to maximize efficiency
- OK to size for heat - will not short cycle during cooling
- Extreme Heat technology keeps you warm to -22°F and beyond
- Slim-fit air handler provides more flexibility in installation
Inverter - The ACiQ-36-HPD 3 ton Extreme series central inverter heat pump utilizes inverter technology to convert AC power to DC, allowing the compressor inside your condenser to speed up and slow down. This allows the system to self-adjust BTU output based on demand. As the weather changes, so will your system output.
Learning Condenser - Equipped with advanced sensors, this condenser monitors indoor and outdoor air temperature, duct pressure, refrigerant temperature, and overall performance. During the initial startup, it enters a learning mode that optimizes future operations for maximum efficiency by collecting and storing data.
Adaptive Sizing - With its self-adjusting inverter design, the ACiQ-36-HPD can be sized based on your heating needs. Standard heat pumps may cause discomfort during summer when sized for heat, but this unit automatically adjusts to function like a smaller unit, ensuring ideal cooling performance without excess humidity.
Extreme Heat Technology - "Extreme Heat" means extended temperature range heating all the way down to -22°F. Traditional heat pumps cannot produce significant heat below about 30°F outside temperature. Below that threshold, they rely on expensive backup electric heat. The ACiQ-36-HPD uses the inverter to vary the refrigerant flow, allowing for maximum heat extraction during extreme cold temperatures. The backup electric heat supplements the heat pump, and only takes over below -22°F. The heat pump gives 100% at 0°F, and still gives 80% at -22°F, saving you up to 75% on cold weather heating bills.
