IAQ equipment supported: An optional integrated FreshAire™ system delivers up to 70 cfm of conditioned fresh air into the space. The fresh air is filtered through a MERV-8 filter per ASHRAE 62.1-2013 and is then conditioned through the unit’s primary DX coils and a reheat coil that augments the unit’s dehumidification capability. This integrated fresh-air solution provides the ability to potentially downsize or eliminate additional make-up air and humidity control equipment.
Thermostat compatibility: Two thermostat options are available for the VRP, with or without energy management and occupancy sensors. There are additional thermostats on the market that will also work.
Replacement parts compatibility: This system shares replacement parts with other models.
Additional features: This unit offers variable refrigerant flow (VRF) performance in single package simplicity. Its Precision Inverter delivers efficiencies up to 17.5 SEER and 11 EER. It operates at 20-120 percent of rated capacity, features a humidity control system with on-board sensors and humidistats, includes a reheat coil that maintains desired RH levels on colder days, and is equipped with low-ambient heat pump operation down to 0˚F. An optional FreshAire system brings in up to 70 cfm of conditioned, MERV-8-filtered outside air, which helps building owners meet ASHRAE 62.1-2013, the building code for IAQ.
Warranty information: A one-year parts warranty is available. A five-year warranty is available on the sealed refrigeration system, which includes the compressor, indoor and outdoor coils, and tubing.
Special installation requirements: No special installation requirements. VRP is designed for simple in-closet installation and provides maximum design flexibility.

Fujitsu General America Inc.
Model: System 9RLS3YH heat pump
Footprint (in inches): 11 (length) by 37 (width) by 12 (height)
Serviceability features: This heat pump features a self-diagnostic system with easy-to-read LED error codes that can be looked up in Fujitsu’s Mobile Technician app for step-by-step troubleshooting. Its washable filters are easily accessible.
Technical support: From mobile devices, contractors can download the Fujitsu Mobile Technician app, where they can view error codes and determine troubleshooting steps to take. Through a password-protected website, contractors can download design and technical manuals.
Technical support materials: Wiring diagrams; installation, operation, and maintenance manuals; a parts list; a troubleshooting guide; specification sheets; start-up instructions; an owner’s manual; and submittal data sheets are available.
Noise-reduction features: The system features an indoor unit as quiet as a whisper, which operates at 23 dB. The outdoor unit operates at 42 dB.
IAQ equipment supported: Ion deodorization filters decompose absorbed odors using the oxidizing/reducing effects of ions generated by the ultra-fine-particle ceramic and Apple-Catechin filters. These measures absorb fine dust, invisible mold spores, and harmful microorganisms onto the filter by static electricity, which further inhibits and deactivates growth. The filters boast a three-year life expectancy. Simply wash the media to restore surface action.
Thermostat compatibility: The unit requires a special thermostat.
Replacement parts compatibility: This system shares replacement parts with other models.
Additional features: Through the free FGLair app, this high-efficiency system can be controlled remotely from anywhere using a smartphone or tablet. The FGLAair app is user-friendly for easy operation, including control of on-off, fan speed, temperature, weekly timer, and more. The system 9RLS3YH features a SEER of 33, extra low temperature heating at outdoor temperatures down to minus 15°F, a programmable remote control, and inverter technology. The outdoor unit features a base heater that prevents condensate from freezing.
Warranty information: Standard five-year parts and seven-year compressor warranties are available. Systems that have been installed by licensed contractors and have been registered online have a 10-year parts and compressor warranty.

Fulton Heating Solutions
Model: Endura+ EDR+6000 firetube condensing boiler
Footprint (in inches): 127 (length) by 34 (width) by 79 (height)
Serviceability features: This condensing boiler is optimized to occupy an ultra-compact footprint and fits through a standard door. Service and maintenance are simplified with quick-access, tool-less panels that detach in seconds.
Technical support: Technical support is provided through a global network of Fulton representatives who provide factory-trained-and-authorized sales and service. To find a local representative, visit fulton.com/representative-locator.
Technical support materials: Wiring diagrams; installation, operation, and maintenance manuals; a troubleshooting guide; specification sheets; an owner’s manual; and submittal data sheets are available.
Noise-reduction features: It includes a fully jacketed boiler cabinet enclosure with gasketed seams that keeps noise levels low.
IAQ equipment supported: Manufacturer did not specify.
Thermostat compatibility: Manufacturer did not specify.
Replacement parts compatibility: This system utilizes some shared parts and some unique parts.
Additional features: These firetube condensing boilers eliminate thermal expansion stresses with a stress reliever outside of the pressure vessel shell. Conventional designs sacrifice durability by transferring stresses directly onto the most critical components — the tubesheet and heat exchanger tubes. An advanced and intuitive lead/lag controller does not require a master boiler, and the O2 compensation automatically tunes combustion to maximize seasonal efficiencies.
Warranty information: The standard warranty on the heat exchanger and pressure vessel is 10 years non-prorated on flue gas corrosion, workmanship, and materials. Thermal shock is warrantied for the lifetime of the boiler. The burner head is warrantied for five years. All other parts are warrantied for one year, and extended parts warranties are available for up to five years.
Special installation requirements: Condensing boilers use a special gas vent, typically Al 29-4C, or approved alternates instead of conventional chimney materials. The Endura+ can save significant installation costs as it does not require dedicated boiler pumps nor primary-secondary piping. By eliminating all of the additional costs associated with primary-secondary, the boilers can be placed in a variable primary flow installation, which provides simpler installation and further enhances energy savings.

The plug-in type fan/motor assembly is easily removed through return air opening, with electronically commutated motor (ECM) technology.
Technical support: Support is available 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday to Friday, at 443-258-2800.
Technical support materials: Wiring diagrams; installation, operation, and maintenance manuals; specification sheets; start-up instructions; an owner’s manual; and submittal data sheets are available.
Noise-reduction features: Water hoses connect the chassis to the supply and return water piping, which isolates sound from the building piping system. An acoustical panel dampens sound while permitting filter removal without any tools. The refrigeration chassis uses an insulated compressor compartment and vibration isolation to further reduce noise.
IAQ equipment supported: Manufacturer did not specify.
Thermostat compatibility: This unit is compatible with most thermostats.
Replacement parts compatibility: The system utilizes some shared parts and some unique parts.
Additional features: These hybrid heat pump units use a hydronic heating coil instead of reversing the refrigerant cycle to allow for energy savings by turning the compressor off and diverting the condenser water to a heating coil. The refrigeration chassis uses a versatile, removable-floating design with an insulated compressor compartment and vibration isolation.
Warranty information: The cabinet carries a 15-month warranty, chassis carries a one-year warranty, compressor carries a five-year warranty, and the refrigeration circuit carries a five-year warranty.
