ACiQ 3 Ton 18 SEER Central Heat Pump Inverter Extreme Series High Efficiency ACiQ-36-HPC
The ACiQ Next Gen Inverter Condenser brings advanced climate control to your home with intelligent inverter-driven performance, superior heating in extreme cold, and seamless BTU self-adjustment. Built to pair with your ducted system, it adapts to changing weather and usage patterns for year-round comfort and energy savings.
Inverter Technology for Adaptive Comfort
Unlike standard HVAC systems, this inverter condenser converts AC power to DC, allowing the internal compressor to ramp up or down based on demand. This enables the system to self-modulate BTU output, maintaining stable indoor temperatures with reduced energy use. As outdoor conditions change, the ACiQ system intelligently adjusts output to match.
Learning System for Smart Efficiency
Equipped with a network of smart sensors, the system monitors indoor and outdoor air temperature, duct pressure, refrigerant temperature, and system performance. During initial startup, it enters a learning mode—keeping air circulating to collect performance data. This ensures that future cycles are optimized for maximum efficiency.
Right-Sized for Heating and Cooling
The self-adjusting inverter compressor allows the system to be sized for heating demand without overcooling during summer months. Traditional systems can leave your home muggy when oversized for heat. With ACiQ Next Gen, your 3-ton system can run like a 2-ton or even 1-ton unit for precise, dry, and cool comfort in summer.
Extreme Heat Technology for Cold Climates
Engineered to operate efficiently down to -22°F, the ACiQ Extreme Heat inverter condenser outperforms traditional heat pumps, which typically stop producing significant heat below 30°F. The inverter modulates refrigerant flow to maintain high heat output in the coldest conditions. You get 100% heating capacity at 0°F and 80% at -22°F. Backup electric heat only engages when necessary, significantly reducing energy bills—by up to 75% in frigid weather.
