ACiQ's Central Series split systems give you the latest intelligent heat pump technology and superior comfort, all at a reasonable cost. The ACiQ single zone series ACiQ-48-AHB / ACiQ-48-HPB system includes a state-of-the-art, variable, inverter heat pump condenser, paired with a highly efficient ducted air handler and a communicating smart thermostat. This means you get the unmatched performance and efficiency of a mini split, delivered throughout your home using your existing ductwork.
The ACiQ Central Series model ACiQ-48-HPB is a unitary central split heat pump system for standard ductwork applications. The variable, inverter compressor, combined with a communicating thermostat means this system can vary the refrigerant flow through the condenser coil based on conditions, making this unit fundamentally different from traditional heat pumps. This smart technology adds up to savings for you, all while delivering superior performance.
The ACiQ-48-HPB output of 48,000 BTU or 4 tons, meaning that it is designed to heat and cool a large house in ideal conditions and with the right air handler. With an efficiency rating of 16 SEER, the ACiQ-48-HP will keep you comfortable in your home while saving money both up front and over the entire lifetime of the unit.
Please note that this condenser requires an ACiQ unitary ducted air handler to function, if not already included in the bundle on this page, along with line sets and other installation accessories available at an additional cost in the Accessories section of this page. It is recommended to have a professional install this system because it is not compatible with pre-charged line sets or other DIY equipment.
Each ACiQ condenser has integrated Max Heat technology to maximize heat performance in extreme cold weather. Extended heat pump performance (HyperHeat) harnesses the power of inverter condenser with outdoor temp sensing, variable refrigerant flow and variable condenser fan speed to maximize heat extraction all the way down to -22. Plus, every ACiQ multizone condenser includes a base pan heater to keep ice from collecting on the condenser coil during heat pump operation. The best news of all? ACiQ includes these technologies with every multizone condenser – the competition makes you pay for it.
State-of-the-Art manufacturing is behind every ACiQ product, resulting in quiet, effective operation over a long service life. Most models have low ambient heating and cooling. Base pan heaters come standard on every multi-zone condenser.
ACiQ saves you money up front, but also over time by reducing energy bills. Every ACiQ condenser features a variable inverter twin rotary compressor, lowering wear and increasing performance. Compare specs against other brands in the same price category, and you will agree, ACiQ is the best value.
Intelligent design goes into every element of ACiQ’s manufacturing ensuring flawless performance for years. Low friction, variable inverter twin rotary compressors give bulletproof reliability. Register equipment at ACiQ.com to extend warranty protection to 7 years parts, 12 years compressor.
ACiQ's Central Series split systems give you intelligent heat pump technology and superior comfort, all at a reasonable cost. The ACiQ-48-AHB air handler features a variable blower and communicating technology to perfectly respond to weather conditions at all times. The thermostat monitors both the indoor and outdoor unit performance, allowing the system to self-adjust to maximize efficiency while providing ideal comfort. The air handler efficiently distributes heated and cooled air throughout your home by attaching to your existing ductwork.
Installation is very similar to installing any replacement air handler, with the exception of using included flared, compression adapters that are brazed to traditional line set. You can use the included thermostat, or any 24v thermostat with 3 stages of heating to control the system. You can add electric strip heat as a backup system for the coldest days of the year. The intelligent control board displays fault codes in case part of the system requires maintenance.
Please note that in order to function as a heat pump, this air handler must be installed with a condenser and other installation equipment, available at an additional cost if not already included in this product bundle. To use straight electric heating, an electric heater coil is necessary and is also available at an additional cost.
