The Rheem® Endeavor Line Prestige Series RD18AY is a high-efficiency inverter heat pump designed to deliver superior comfort and energy savings. Its variable-speed compressor provides precise temperature and humidity management, while its quiet operation ensures minimal disturbance.Built for versatile application, this unit offers universal compatibility with both Rheem® EcoNet® communicating systems and conventional non-communicating setups. The compact, side-discharge design makes it an excellent solution for installations with limited space, such as zero-lot-line properties, without sacrificing performance.
- Universal Compatibility: Works with nearly any R-454B HVAC system, including Rheem® EcoNet® enabled communicating systems and traditional non-communicating systems.
- Quiet Operation: Features sound-dampening technologies like a compressor sound blanket and swept-wing fan blade to achieve sound levels as low as 50 dBA.
- Advanced Serviceability: Includes PlusOne® Diagnostics and Bluetooth® connectivity, allowing for advanced setup, monitoring, and troubleshooting through the Rheem® Contractor & EcoNet® Apps.
- Variable-Speed Compressor: The PlusOne® inverter-driven, twin rotary compressor provides precise temperature and humidity control by operating from 45% to 100% capacity.
- Installation Flexibility: A compact, side-discharge footprint is ideal for space-constrained locations, while compatibility with traditional piping simplifies replacement jobs.
- Enhanced Safety: Equipped with the PlusOne® Refrigerant Detection System™, an integrated A2L sensor and mitigation board that pauses operation if excess refrigerant is detected.
