Description
The RD18AY24AJVCA is a 2-ton outdoor heat pump designed for residential split systems. Itβs well-suited for homes between 900 and 1,200 square feet, offering both heating and cooling in a compact side-discharge format. This unit features a variable-speed inverter compressor, which allows for quieter operation and more precise temperature control. It uses R-454B refrigerant to meet updated environmental standards.
