* Nominal tons are at ARI/ISO 13256-1 GLHP conditions. Two-stage units may be operated in single-stage mode if desired,
where smaller capacity is required. For example, a model 026 may be used as a 1-1/2 ton unit if “locked” into 1st stage
operation only. If PSC fan is used, unit must be “locked” into either 1st or 2nd stage. An ECM fan is required for two-stage
operation and for ARI ratings. Size air handler for “Full Load” if operating in two-stage mode.
**When selecting an air handler based upon the above conditions, choose entering WB temperature of 67ºF. Use evaporator
temperature, CFM and capacity requirements as listed above. The air handler capacity must be at least at the minimum
capacity shown in the table in order for the ARI rating condition to be valid. See Figure 1 for an example selection.
Indoor Coil Selection - R-22 Units
Geothermal split system heat pumps with R-22
refrigerant are rated in the ARI directory with a
“generic” indoor coil match and PSC fan. Selection of
air handlers that attain the published ARI ratings must
meet or exceed the speci
fi
cations listed in Table 2.
A
TXV is required.
Cap tubes and
fi
xed ori
fi
ces are
not acceptable.
