  • The ASV18 heat pump offers 18-SEER cooling performance and high-efficiency heating performance up to 9.5 HSPF. The unit's Goodman SmartCoil 5-millimeter copper tubing uses less copper, requires less refrigerant, and optimizes the heat transfer of the heating and cooling process, according to the firm. Additional features include a two-stage Ultra Tech Copeland Scroll compressor, ComfortAlert diagnostics, R410A refrigerant, and a sound-reduction cover and sound-control top to reduce noise. 877-254-4729.
  • Introducing the Latest in Energy Saving Products from Stiebel Eltron
  • ebuild (7/21/2009)
  • The new Accelera 300 reduces hot water costs up to 80%. Heat pumps have been around for decades, but a heat pump water heater is a brand new concept. The Accelera 300 works like an air conditioner but instead of dumping the heat outdoors, it puts it into the 80 gal tank of water. Additionally, it cools and dehumidifies the surrounding air and the tank insulation minimizes stand-by losses.
  • Air Conditioner and Heat Pump
  • ebuild (7/21/2009)
  • The XL 20i air conditioner/heat pump boasts 20-SEER efficiency and includes ComfortLink II with Charge Assist.
