Allied Air Enterprises Redesigns Armstrong Air® and AirEase® Pro Series Systems to Welcome New Low-GWP Refrigerant and Offer New Benefits
Allied Air Enterprises Introduces New Pro Series™ Heat Pumps and Air Conditioners Under Armstrong Air® and AirEase™ Brands
Posted on: Dec 12, 2022 by Katie AndrewsWest Columbia, SC -- Allied Air Enterprises introduces a new Pro Series™ offering that features two new heat pumps and an air conditioner available exclusively through the Armstrong Air® and AirEase™ brands. The new 4SHP22LX and 4SHP18LX heat pumps offer up to 22 SEER (20.9 SEER2) and 20 SEER (19 SEER2) respectively, and the new 4SCU23LX air conditioner features up to 23 SEER (21.5 SEER2) efficiency ratings. Allied Air's new Pro Series products work with existing indoor components to simplify the 2023 regulatory transition for their distributors and dealers.
“These additions to the Pro Series product offering are driven by the upcoming increases in efficiency levels to help ensure our distributors and dealers continue to have a best-better-good offering,” said Kim McGill, VP – Marketing for Allied Air. “These new products will meet the needs of consumers who want high efficiency HVAC solutions for their home. They’ll also allow qualifying consumers to take advantage of new federal incentives available through the Inflation Reduction Act, as well as any existing and future local utility incentives,” she said.*
The new Pro Series 4SHP22LX and 4SCU23LX line up brings four-SKUs each, representing Allied Air’s premium solutions for Heat Pumps and Air Conditioners. The 22LX/23LX products allow dealers to fine-tune the capacity to the application and give consumers the widest range of compressor modulation for the best dehumidification and comfort when compared to the rest of the product line. With CEE efficiency tiers having been recently finalized for 2023, the new 22LX and 23LX are well positioned to offer consumers qualifying system matches for the 25C tax credit program.*
The 4SHP18LX true variable speed heat pump replaces the current 4SHP16LS and provides an entry point to inverter technology with only two-SKUs to support the full 2- to -5-ton capacity range. The 4SHP18LX capitalizes on trends in the mid-efficiency range so dealers can deliver a premium, communicating-enabled solution while the built-in proprietary algorithms and five comfort mode settings allow broad application flexibility.
Pro Series Special Features:
- Comfort Sync® A3 Ultra-Smart Thermostat compatible, but can also be installed with a traditional 24V thermostat
- In 24V applications, 5 comfort mode settings on-board control the variable operation
- Service valves at a 45° angle for simplified access.
- Up to 39% more efficient than older 14 SEER systems
- Omniguard® total corrosion protection
- Maximum heat exchange (MHT™) technology utilizes lanced coil fins and rifled tubing to help improve heat transfer while a fan venturi helps control airflow to maximize the use of the coil surface area.
