Perhaps there is no heat pump quieter, more innovative and more flexible than Rheem’s Universal Heat Pump. The newest member of Rheem’s Endeavor® Line and Sound & Space Constraint Solutions portfolio, the Classic Plus® RD17AZ Side-Discharge Universal Heat Pump is compatible with nearly any existing HVAC system or as a universal replacement.
So, what makes the Universal Heat Pump different than others on the market?
There’s a reason why it’s called the “universal” heat pump. Whether your home needs a new heating and cooling solution or replacement equipment, the RD17AZ works with nearly any HVAC system, including both Rheem® EcoNet®-enabled systems and noncommunicating systems. The universal heat pump can also be installed as a universal replacement with minimal alterations.
Consider the RD17AZ a space-saver solution. The RD17AZ features a compact footprint up to 50% smaller than traditional heat pumps, making it the perfect option for when space is at a premium. Size options are available as low as 40.2 inches wide, 16.4 inches deep, and 36.6 inches tall, further proof that good (and quiet) things come in small packages.
The universal heat pump thrives in quiet places, with sound levels as low as 58 decibels—quieter than the churn of your washing machine.
Sound-dampening features such as refrigerant tubing design, fan blade approach, and innovative compressor and drive technologies ensure that as efficiency goes up, sound levels stay low. Speaking of efficiency …
Reduced emissions, refrigerant, energy usage—Rheem’s Universal Heat Pump does it all. The 7 mm condenser coil reduces refrigerant requirements up to 15%, which lowers the amount of greenhouse gases emitted while contributing to Rheem’s sustainability goal of a 50% reduction in our greenhouse gas footprint by 2025. It’s also ENERGY STAR® and Cold Climate certified.
Inverter-driven, variable speed technology mean precise temperature requirements and advanced humidity control. Built-in Bluetooth® connectivity make the Universal Heat Pump easy to install and service, while EcoNet® allows homeowners to optimize performance and remote system control from the EcoNet app.
Installing high-efficiency HVAC equipment like the RD17AZ can qualify you for tax incentives, earning you up to $2,000 in federal tax credits.
When you install the Universal Heat Pump, you’re covered by one of the best warranties in the industry. RD17AZ comes with a 10 Year Conditional Parts warranty when installed as a heat pump only or as part of a system.
