Description

ACiQ's Next Gen Heat Pump systems give you the best of both worlds – a self-adjusting, mini-split-style inverter condenser matched to a communicating air handler that attaches to your existing ductwork.

How is it different from a traditional heat pump?

  • Traditional heat pumps rely on expensive heat strips below 30deg F
  • ACiQ Next Gen saves up to 75% in temps below 30deg F
  • Variable BTU Inverter ramps up and down to match demand
  • Smart system with soft startups to maximize efficiency
  • OK to size for heat – will not short cycle during cooling
  • Extreme Heat technology keeps you warm to -22 and beyond
3 Ton 18 SEER ACiQ Central Heat & Air Inverter Condenser | Extreme Heat

OVERVIEW

Inverter Condenser - Inverter technology changes AC power to DC, allowing the compressor inside your condenser to speed up and slow down. This allows the system to self-adjust BTU output based on demand. As the weather changes, so will your system output.

Learning system - This system is packed with sensors and controls air temperature inside and outside, system performance, duct pressure, refrigerant temperature. The first time you start your system it enters a learning mode keeping air moving across the sensors and storing information so future startups and run cycles will be at max efficiency.

Size for heat - The self-adjusting inverter design allows you to size your system based on heat demand. With standard heat pumps, sizing for heat can mean a muggy house during summer. The ACiQ Next Gen 3-ton heat pump system automatically adjusts to run like a 2 ton or a 1 ton to keep you cool and dry.

Extreme Heat Technology - Extreme Heat means extended temperature range heating all the way down to -22°F. Traditional heat pumps don't make significant heat below about 30°F outside temperature, below that, they rely on expensive backup electric heat. The ACiQ Next Gen with Extreme Heat uses the inverter to vary the refrigerant flow, allowing for maximum heat extraction during extreme cold temperatures. The backup electric heat supplements the heat pump, and only takes over below -22°. The heat pump gives 100% at 0°F, and still gives 80% at -22°F, saving you up to 75% on cold weather heating bills.

Ecobee Smart WiFi Thermostat with Alexa

The Ecobee is more than a smart thermostat. Most thermostats only read the temperature in one place (usually the hallway) which can make other rooms uncomfortable. Ecobee5 comes with a room sensor to help manage hot or cold spots. When you place sensors in your favorite rooms, ecobee5 can read the temperature and detect occupancy. That's how it ensures comfort in the rooms that matter.

With Amazon Alexa Voice Service built inside, ecobee5 can perform the many 'skills' that come with Alexa. All you have to do is ask, and watch the blue light pipe on top of the thermostat blink in response. For total hands-free control, it can even hear you from across the room. Imagine you’re throwing a last-minute dinner party. Simply ask your ecobee5 to walk you through each step out loud – from finding the right recipes to the ideal music playlist. ecobee5 has embedded microphones with far-field voice recognition and a speaker engineered for clear voice and full sound. It’s the smart thermostat that looks at home on your wall – that you can hear and speak to from across the room.

Questions and Answers

Customer Questions
Who makes ACiQ?
ACiQ is made by one of the largest HVAC manufacturers in the world. With 150,000 employees in over 195 countries, their products improve the lives of millions of people around the globe. Their manufacturing is state of the art, with robotic assembly and computer assisted quality control. ACiQ has an extremely low rate of warranty return. With the features, performance and price it's the best value you can get on a mini split.
Is ACiQ better than Mitsubishi?
Mitsubishi makes great equipment, certainly. They were first to sell mini splits in the US, and they have a solid reputation. Yet ACiQ has higher SEER ratings, longer warranty, and extreme weather performance all the way down to -22! You can spend more on a mini split, but you can't get better value.
Who owns ACiQ?
1HVAC Energy is part of a family of companies with 80 years in the industry and a long reputation of putting customers first. They own ACiQ as well as a number of other quality brands.
Who will service it if something goes wrong?
You get lifetime phone support with every ACiQ mini split. Many problems can be handled by our experts without having to call in a serviceperson. If you need a serviceperson, ACiQ shares a manufacturer with Carrier mini splits. This means that highly trained technicians across the country are very familiar with these units.
Does the ACiQ air handler require brazed or flared line set connections?
The air handler will require a brazed connection while the outside condenser requires a flared connection. If you have any further questions, please call us and we will be happy to assist you.
How long would shipping and handling take?
Shipping time varies widely due to availability but when we do have it in stock and available you can expect this unit to ship within 2-4 business days and arrive shortly after that.   If you have any further questions please feel free to give us a call! Thanks
Does the ACiQ come pre charged with 410a?
Yes, this unit does come precharged with refrigerant however you will still need to purchase line sets and have a contractor vacuum the system before releasing the refrigerant.
For items ID 84668 and 84669, what would be the best thermostat?
Thank you for your question. For both of these units, any thermostat with single heat and single cool settings will work. However, if you plan on using heat strips, you will need any thermostat with two heat and single cool settings. For more assistance, please give us a call.
If the ACiQ heat pump works down to -22 degrees Fahrenheit why would you have optional heater coils?
Heat Pump technology is making rapid advances in recent years. But any heat pump system is still subject to the basic physical facts - the colder it gets outside, the longer it has to run to collect heat. You can run this model efficiently in far colder weather than a traditional style heat pump, but the efficiency and heat capability reduces with the outside temperature. The BTUs start to decrease below 17 degrees, and by the time outside temps reach -22 it is operating at just above 50% capacity. Below that, the heat pump turns off. Resistance heat provides electric heat no matter the outdoor temperature, and is sometimes referred to as 'emergency' or 'aux' heat. The climate in your area may mean that you don't need one, but at the price, it is good to have the second stage backup. If you have any further questions please feel free to give us a call! Thanks.
Does power for ACIQ next gen indoor unit come from the outdoor unit like Mitsubishi
The ACIQ next gen indoor air handler requires an electrical supply of 208/230v separate from the condenser. If you have any further questions please feel free to give us a call! Thanks.
For the 36k BTU unit, is the max refrigerant pipe length is 213 ft and 98.4 ft?
Thank you for your question. Yes, the refrigerant pipe data specified in the submittal specifies a max height difference of 98’, a refrigerant pre-charge of 25’ and a max pipe length 213'. As long as the refrigerant pipe parameters are followed, there are no performance issues. The submittal can be found under product specifications on the product page. If needed, your licensed installer can adjust the refrigerant levels. For more assistance, please give us a call.
Will both models of the Nest Thermostat work with this system?
Thank you for your question. Yes, the Nest thermostat will work with any commercial 24v thermostat. When connecting this thermostat, please follow the guidelines in the QuickStart thermostat wiring guide, which is located under resources in the product specifications section of the product page. Be sure to change the O/B setting to energize for heat. By default the heat pump setting in the Nest energizes on cooling. For more assistance, please give us a call.
Why does this 3 ton unit require a minimum 41 Amp breaker? My existing heat pump runs on a 30 Amp breaker and only draws 17 Amps (full load amps). Do I need to upgrade my circuit breaker?
It does require the larger breaker for two reasons. The first is the included basepan heater. This resistance element prevents coil freezing during the coldest temperatures and ensures a long service life. The second reason is the Hyper Heat extended heating performance. When conditions call for heat in extremely low outdoor temperature, the Hyper Heat mode keeps the condenser running at full power for long periods of time. To maintain this high-performance mode over time, you need the correct amp draw. Bear in mind that it does not always mean that it uses more power than your old model. Except in the rare conditions stated above, this heat pump is using inverter technology to ramp down and only use the minimum power needed to meet demand. This means that most of the time, it is using a fraction of the current older single stage or 2 stage heat pumps would use. This also applies to the same savings for cooling mode as well. If you have any further questions, please call us and we...
Is the air handler multi-positional?
Hello, yes, this air handler is mult-positional per the specifications section. If you have any further questions please feel free to give us a call! Thank you.
