ACiQ 1.5 Ton 16 SEER2 High Efficiency Central Air Conditioner Condenser - R410A Inverter

Replace Your AC Without Replacing Your Whole System

This ACiQ R410A inverter air conditioner condenser is a smart replacement option for homeowners with an existing R410A central cooling system. When the indoor equipment is still compatible, replacing the outdoor condenser can be a more affordable alternative to converting the entire system to newer refrigerant equipment. It is designed for cooling-only applications and can also work with compatible furnace and evaporator coil setups.

Key Benefits

  • R410A Compatible Replacement – A smart option for replacing the outdoor condenser in an existing compatible R410A cooling system.
  • Limited Availability Option – A good choice while R410A replacement equipment is still available.
  • Sized for Small Homes – 1.5 ton cooling capacity for approximately 600–1,000 sq. ft. homes.
  • 16 SEER Cooling Efficiency – Provides dependable cooling performance for compatible central air installations.
  • Inverter Cooling Performance – Variable-output 1.5 ton (18,000 BTU) inverter performance; can go down to 1 Ton (12,000 BTU) based on demand and weather conditions.

Cooling Capacity for Small Homes

With 1.5 tons of cooling capacity, this condenser is commonly used for homes approximately 600–1,000 sq. ft. in various climates. Actual sizing depends on your local climate, insulation, windows, ceiling height, air leakage, home layout, and a professional sizing review.

Good Replacement Option for R410A Systems

This condenser is a practical choice when your existing indoor coil or evaporator coil is still compatible with R410A equipment. For many homeowners, replacing the outdoor condenser can extend the life of their current setup and avoid the added cost of converting the entire system to newer refrigerant equipment.

Limited R410A Availability

R410A condensers are becoming more limited as new equipment transitions to updated refrigerants. If your system requires an R410A-compatible replacement, this unit can help keep your existing setup operational while inventory is still available.


Repair or Replace?  See Which Option Is Best For You

Should you repair or replace your HVAC system? The right choice depends on factors such as the system’s age, overall condition, repair cost, and refrigerant type. Repairing an older system may be the more affordable option today, especially when the rest of the equipment is still in good shape.

However, if another major component fails later, replacing the system could become more expensive than upgrading both components together now.

This video explains how to weigh the immediate cost of repair against the potential long-term value of replacement.


Warranty

This condenser includes a 12-Year Compressor Warranty and 7-Year Parts Warranty with online registration. Installation must follow state and local codes, and warranty coverage may be void if the unit is not installed by a qualified professional.

What’s Included

  • ACiQ Inverter Air Conditioner Condenser – Outdoor cooling-only condenser for compatible R410A split-system applications.

Recommended Accessories

  • Line Set – Connects the outdoor condenser to compatible indoor equipment for refrigerant flow.
  • Condenser Installation Kit – Provides key installation materials for a cleaner condenser setup.
  • Mounting Options – Choose the mounting option that fits the installation location.
  • Thermostat – Select a compatible thermostat option to support system control.

Requirements & Considerations

  • Compatible Indoor Equipment Required – This cooling-only condenser must be paired with compatible R410A indoor equipment.
  • Line Set Selection – Use the line set option and connection sizing shown on the live product page or confirmed by installation guidance.
  • Refrigerant Charge – Pre-charged with R410A refrigerant for up to 25' of line set.
  • Electrical Requirements – Requires a 208 / 230 V, 1 Phase, 60 Hz electrical supply. Requires a 30 Amp max breaker and 19 Amp minimum breaker size.
  • Professional Installation Recommended – Proper installation, system matching, and refrigerant handling are important for safe operation and warranty coverage.

Customers Say

Buyers report quiet operation, strong cooling and heating performance, and measurable energy savings, including a 3 ton unit described as running 10 times quieter than a previous 2 ton system, using half the electricity, cutting one owner’s bill by $150 per month, and saving another hundreds in heating costs in Iowa’s negative temperatures. Installation is often completed by homeowners in as little as three hours with helpful tech support, though a few noted startup issues, a bad controller thermostat, a dented condenser corner, and a missing 3/8” line set pipe.

    My a/c quit last fall. After some research I decided to do a full replacement of both units. After placing my order there were some out of stock issues. Nicholas was great in helping me get substitutions for my order. There were also some concerns about the delivery. He was great in coordinating the day and delivery time. Thanks again for great service !!

    I installed this unit last weekend along with a matching coil during a heat wave. It performed perfectly. I like the 2 stage function. It drops to the 1st stage when it reaches thermostat set temp and maintains house temp using less energy. I hope this unit performs for years to come, but so far I am very happy especially the price I purchased it for.
