MILWAUKEE — Johnson Controls unveiled its new Vertical Stacked Water-Source Heat Pump Sound Room in Ajax, Ontario, Canada. The sound room contains two working Johnson Controls vertical stacked water-source heat pump (VS-WSHP) units, allowing customers to experience first-hand the best-in-class sound performance of the high-efficiency 13-EER model and the premium-efficiency 16-EER model in a residential setting.
“Johnson Controls is the only manufacturer to offer two performance platforms for water-source heat pumps,” said Karl Washburn, principal engineer, acoustics, Building Technologies and Solutions at Johnson Controls. “Both units are engineered and manufactured to minimize noise and have undergone independent sound testing according to AHRI 260. The new Sound Room complements our recently released Sound Application Guide for the vertical stacked heat pump and gives customers the opportunity to listen to the units before purchasing them.”
