ACIQ Standard Series 2.5 Ton 17 SEER2 High Efficiency Heat Pump Condenser - R454B Inverter ACIQ-30-EHPD
The ACIQ-30-EHPD is a 2.5-ton high-efficiency inverter heat pump condenser engineered to deliver dependable, year-round comfort. Rated at 17 SEER2 and pre-charged with R454B refrigerant, this condenser uses inverter technology to convert AC power to DC, allowing the compressor to continuously adjust its speed and modify BTU output based on real-time demand for efficient, adaptable performance across varying weather conditions.
Equipped with advanced sensors, this condenser monitors indoor and outdoor air temperature, duct pressure, refrigerant temperature, and overall performance. During initial startup it enters a learning mode, collecting and storing data to optimize future operation. Its self-adjusting, adaptive sizing design allows the unit to function like a smaller unit when full heating capacity isn't needed, helping maintain ideal cooling performance and humidity control.

Performance Overview
With a 2.5-ton capacity and a 17 SEER2 efficiency rating, the ACIQ-30-EHPD provides versatile comfort across a range of climates with a variable output that eliminates short cycling for lasting efficiency. Efficiency at lower temperatures varies by climate — at 0°F outdoor temperature, this heat pump operates at 57% efficiency, making it a strong fit for moderate climates that experience some colder days.
Please note that this condenser cannot operate independently and must be installed with a compatible indoor air handler.
Important Refrigerant Safety Notice
This condenser uses R454B refrigerant, classified as an A2L refrigerant. To comply with safety standards and maintain warranty coverage, the unit must be paired with an R454B-compatible air handler equipped with a refrigerant leak detection system. Failure to follow these requirements may result in safety hazards and could void the manufacturer warranty. For compatibility questions, please call 1-888-557-9206.

Performance Overview
Rated at 2.5 tons, the ACIQ-30W-WMB is designed for vertical wall mounting with an up-flow-only configuration. Your technician will handle electrical, refrigerant, thermostat, and communication connections, as well as connecting to the return and supply ductwork. Any 24V thermostat with 2 stages of heating can control the system, but the supplied thermostat is recommended. Optional 3 kW, 5 kW, 8 kW, or 10 kW electric heat strips can be added for backup heat on the coldest days, and the intelligent control board displays fault codes if maintenance is needed.
NOTE: to function as a heat pump, this air handler must be installed with a condenser and other installation equipment. To use straight electric heating, an electric heater coil is required and is available at an additional cost.
