Split Systems

RSS

A series of geothermal heat pumps from Enertech Global swept the HVAC Light Commercial Equipment category of the 2015 Dealer Design Awards, starting with the gold award winner, the TVS/TVT TETCO Commercial Series Geothermal Heat Pump.

The Mighty Bracket™ mini-split support tool from RectorSeal Corp. is designed to make installation and maintenance of mini-splits an easy, one-person job. 

The Si-20 condensate removal solution is designed for installation versatility. Its slim design allows it to fit inside a mini-split air conditioner, alongside a unit (in lineset cover), or within a drop ceiling. 

The 19 Series replaces the KE Series, offering higher SEER capabilities (up to 19 SEER versus 18), greater heating efficiency (9 HSPF versus 8.2), and an improved drain pan design allowing for better drainage and cold weather operation. 

Available in both heat pump and cooling only models, the 15 Series systems are pre-charged, designed to install quickly, and feature streamlined indoor units paired with compact outdoor units. 

The 9,000- (9RLS3), 12,000- (12RLS3), and 15,000- (15RLS3) Btu model wall-mounted ductless split systems provide up to 33 SEER and 14.2 HSPF. 

While residential growth in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Canada, and Prince Edward Island, has since slowed to a degree, the condo boom brought some changes to the small provinces. Heating professionals noticed a trend.

The NEWS' annual issue has traditionally introduced the latest air conditioning units available for the upcoming summer season. The intent is to help contractors prepare for this busy period by doing the research that will help them to distinguish between brands.

With year-after-year double-digit growth and a projected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of more than 14 percent between 2013 and 2020, opportunities in the ductless market are sprouting like May flowers.

According to Navigant Research, ductless systems will account for nearly 30 percent of all North American energy-efficient HVAC system revenue by 2020.
