The AirQuest R4A5S18AKAWA is a standard AC-only condenser. Designed with comfort in mind and an inexpensive but higher-than-standard efficiency option for nearly any application, this condenser is considered a good all-around option for almost any application.
The AirQuest R4A5S18AKAWA air conditioner condenser has an output of 1.5 tons, generally enough to cool up to a small house in ideal climates. In many system configurations, the tonnage of the unit's paired coil or air handler will be larger in tonnage than this condenser, which maintains the efficiency of the unit. Please note that this condenser cannot function or provide any sort of heating on its own, and it needs an indoor coil or air handler to work. If you have any questions, please contact us.
The AirQuest R4A5S18AKAWA air conditioner condenser is rated at 14.3 SEER2, making it between 5-7% more efficient than standard 13.4 SEER2 units, saving you money in electric bills over the entire lifetime of your unit.
AirQuest offers a 10 year parts warranty on this condenser. For these warranties to be upheld, the unit must be installed following your state and local codes, a new and certified coil must be installed at the same time, and the entire system must be registered online through the manufacturer.
The cabinet of AirQuest units are extremely durable. On the R4A5S18AKAWA, there are reinforced corner posts and the internals of the unit are protected by an additional inlet grille, all to provide enhanced protection to the unit.
AirQuest has the power to keep things cool when temperatures rise. Every AirQuest condenser uses a scroll compressor for long life and efficiency operation. From entry level to high efficient, single stage, two stage and communicating models, every AirQuest Condenser keeps you cool year after year.
AirQuest saves you money up front, but also over time by reducing energy bills. Models ranging from standard efficiency to high efficient models can provide you savings from 21% to 63% over older, 10 SEER condensers. Coil construction is either all aluminum or copper/aluminum (depending on model) for max efficiency.
AirQuest condensers are 100% run-tested at the factory. Protective coatings on the fins mean long life even in harsh conditions. A filter drier is included to keep the system healthy. AirQuest’s extended warranty with online registration provides 10 year protection.
 NestorInstaller in Chicago, Illinois | What Contractors are SayingThese Airquest units are easy to work on. The warranty is rock solid and is as good as any warranty in the industry. I'm sold! |
 MichaelInstaller in Atlanta, Georgia | What Contractors are SayingThese Airquest units are attractive and durable. I never hesitate to recommend Air Quest units to my customers when it is time for them to replace their air conditioners or furnaces. They love getting a high quality unit for such a great price. |
 LukeInstaller in Dayton, Ohio | What Contractors are SayingWas initially concerned about the Airquest brand as I had heard little about it. My attitude changed completely once I had a look “under the hood”. These Airquest units are as good as any other brand that I’ve seen. Plus, they have all the features and quality details that the more expensive brands have, but at a much more attractive price. |
 ChrisInstaller in Atlanta, Georgia | What Contractors are SayingI’m a long time HVAC technician. I have an Airquest furnace in my basement and an Airquest air conditioner in my yard. I couldn’t be happier with them. Airquest is always the first brand I offer my customers when it’s time for unit replacement. If it works for me, it will work for them, too. And it does! |
