ACiQ Standard Series 3 Ton 16.1 SEER2 High Efficiency Heat Pump Condenser R454B Inverter ACIQ-36-EHPD
The ACIQ-36-EHPD is a 3-ton inverter heat pump condenser from ACiQ's Standard Series, engineered to deliver high-efficiency, year-round comfort for ducted residential systems. Inverter technology converts AC power to DC, allowing the compressor to continuously adjust its speed and match BTU output to real-time demand for smoother, more efficient performance across varying weather conditions.
Equipped with advanced sensors, this condenser monitors indoor and outdoor air temperature, duct pressure, refrigerant temperature, and overall system performance, entering a learning mode during initial startup to optimize future operation. Its self-adjusting inverter design allows the unit to be sized based on heating needs while still delivering ideal, low-humidity cooling performance in summer.

Performance Overview
Rated at 16.1 SEER2, the ACIQ-36-EHPD delivers reliable comfort across a range of climates with a variable output that eliminates short cycling for lasting efficiency. At 0°F outdoor temperature, this heat pump operates at 72% efficiency, making it a strong fit for maximizing efficiency in colder climates. Please note that this condenser cannot operate independently and must be installed with a compatible indoor air handler or evaporator coil.
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 or evaporator coil 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.
ACiQ 3 Ton Ducted Air Handler Wall Mounted R454B ACIQ-36W-WMB
The ACIQ-36W-WMB is a 3-ton wall-mounted ducted air handler designed for vertical wall or stud mounting, giving installers versatile placement options in tight mechanical spaces. Encased in a fully insulated, galvanized-steel cabinet, this air handler is built for dependable performance and long-term durability.
Equipped with a fully adjustable TXV for both cooling and heat pump operation and a direct-drive, multi-speed motor, this air handler delivers adjustable airflow volume and pairs seamlessly with ACiQ's high-efficiency inverter condensers to support modern R454B refrigerant systems.
Key Features
- 3 ton wall-mounted ducted air handler for residential systems
- Connects to ductwork
- Suitable for use with R454B refrigerant
- Fully adjustable TXV for cooling and heat pump operation
- Direct-drive, multi-speed motor for adjustable air volume in heating and cooling
- Factory-installed pull-type disconnect for convenience
- Aluminum tube coils included
- Thermoplastic drain pan with bottom primary and secondary drain connections
- Built-in filter rack with filter for improved indoor air quality
- Wall-hanging bracket included for easy installation
- Supports optional 3 kW, 5 kW, 8 kW, or 10 kW electric heat kits for supplemental or backup heating
Performance Overview
Rated at 3 tons, the ACIQ-36W-WMB is built to support residential heating and cooling applications when paired with a compatible condenser. While the air handler requires an outdoor unit to operate as part of a complete heat pump system, it can also accommodate optional electric heat kits to provide supplemental straight electric heating.
Installation and Durability
Installing the ACIQ Wall Mount Ducted Air Handler is similar to installing any replacement air handler — a technician will handle electrical, refrigerant, thermostat, and communication connections, as well as connecting to the return and supply ductwork. This air handler is designed for vertical wall mounting with an up-flow-only configuration. Any 24V thermostat with 2 stages of heating can control the system, and the intelligent control board displays fault codes if maintenance is needed.
