Every year, The NEWS introduces the latest heating equipment that is available for the upcoming winter season. The intent is to help contractors prepare for this busy period by doing the research that will help them to distinguish between brands.
Like last year, this year’s Heating Showcase is split into two parts — residential and commercial. The residential/light commercial information is published in this issue, and the commercial products will be featured in the Oct. 1 issue. Included in the coverage is feature-specific information about each individual product that was submitted by the manufacturers.
The showcase features the product grid, starting on page 8, which includes technical facts, such as unit tonnage, refrigerant type, efficiency rating, and cooling capacity. The accompanying photo feature provides more in-depth information on the features of each individual unit and also includes technical support information from the manufacturer. The manufacturers provided all of the data included in both the product grid and the photo feature. Therefore, any questions should be directed to them via the contact information provided.

Serviceability features: Self-diagnostic features will display specific error codes on the furnace control, ensuring that technicians are able to solve customer issues quickly. The door of the furnace also has a large 4- by 5-inch viewing window so that homeowners can easily view the error codes and remotely relay this information back to their servicing technician safely, without needing to remove the panel to get inside the equipment.
Noise-reduction features: Sound insulation is included inside the blower compartment. The furnace also has a variable-speed inducer motor with a learning algorithm that will learn at which RPM the motor should run to ensure maximum performance at the lowest possible sound level.
IAQ equipment supported: Furnaces work well with humidifiers, fresh air ventilators, and high-efficiency air filters. The Trane CleanEffects whole home air filter removes dust, allergens, and even viruses like influenza from the indoor air. CleanEffects has been recognized by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America as being a certified asthma and allergy friendly product and has met rigid test standards to be included in the Clean Air Certification Program™.
Thermostat compatibility: Compatible with most thermostats.
Replacement parts compatibility: Some shared parts and some unique parts.
Additional features: The furnace achieves 97 percent AFUE, has a fully variable-speed blower, variable-speed inducer, and a very user-friendly menu and option-driven control board. It is compatible with the Trane TruComfort™ variable-speed outdoor systems, which provide up to 750 cooling speeds for comfort and efficiency.
Warranty information: Lifetime heat exchanger and 10-year parts registered warranty.
Special installation requirements: This furnace comes ready to install. No special conversion kits are required to convert the furnace to any of the alternate poise positions. Converting the furnace to right-side gas entry from the default left-side gas entry is a simple process, because a specially designed conversion tube is installed on every furnace.

Serviceability features: Single-panel access to all components. The back-lit integrated diagnostic display with Bluetooth technology will — in the very near future — allow technicians to view all information via their cellphones. Built-in compressor and inverter drive diagnostics take the guesswork out of troubleshooting. Charging and pump-down modes are available for ease of install and service. The Nexia dealer diagnostic portal provides dealers remote access to system fault codes and alerts.
Noise-reduction features: With a maximum operating sound level of 57 dBA, this is the quietest ducted split heat pump Trane has to offer. The use of larger compressor capacities and fan sizes allows the system to operate at slower and quieter speeds. Perfect for use where low sound levels are required by local code or where ultra-quiet outdoor unit operation is desired. Zero lot line, hotels, condos, and outdoor living spaces are a few examples.
IAQ equipment supported: Compatible with the Trane CleanEffects whole house air cleaner, FreshEffects energy recovery ventilator, and EnviroWise inline ventilators. The ComfortLink-II communicating controls provide technicians and homeowners simple control and service reminders for installed accessories. Hyperion communicating air handlers also have optional integrated UV light accessories that only operate during cooling mode, which lengthens the life of the UV bulbs and reduces energy savings and the cost of operation.
Thermostat compatibility: Requires the use of a Trane Comfortlink-II XL850 or XL1050 communicating control.
Replacement parts compatibility: Some shared parts and some unique parts.
Additional features: TruComfort technology provides up to 700 speeds for precise control of indoor temperature and humidity. The draw-through design discharges air away from the home to minimize recirculation and the potential for staining of the home that can occur with blow-through designs. The use of a refrigerant-cooled inverter, electronic expansion valve, and demand defrost controls enhances long-term system reliability.
Warranty information: Limited warranty (registered): 10-year compressor, coil, and parts. Limited warranty (nonregistered): five-year compressor, coil, and parts. Extended warranty available.
Special installation requirements: Utilizes Comfortlink-II communicating controls and is compatible with ComfortLink-II Zoning and accessories. Requires a minimum of 6-inch clearance from the house on the coil side and 36-inch clearance from the fan outlet grille. A minimum of 2 inches is required and allowed when installed beneath a deck or overhang to allow access for removal of the top panel. Epoxy-coated coils can be special ordered for coastal applications.

Serviceability features: This one-piece unit has the blower and coil all in one, eliminating the need for space-eating mechanical areas. Installation is easy, simply requiring connection to ductwork and either refrigerant or water lines, depending on the application. The unit uses an electronically commutated (EC) motor and software, providing the ability to precisely manage airflow.
Noise-reduction features: Because the unit is designed to run inside closets, eliminating sound and vibration is an important aspect of the system. The entire surface of the interior is lined with 1-inch sound-deadening insulation, making sound levels fall to under 40 decibels.
IAQ equipment supported: Equipped with a blower and coil, the air handler provides all the benefits of the Unico System, including the ability to fit into small spaces, draft-free airflow, lower humidity, and even room temperatures.
Thermostat compatibility: Compatible with most thermostats.
Replacement parts compatibility: Some shared parts and some unique parts.
Additional features: The air handler is specifically designed for closet spaces or any upflow application, with flexible control-box mounting to the top, front, or either side of the unit. Available in three sizes, the unit will never be taller than 5 feet, allowing for easy fit and space for ductwork and fittings to come directly off of the unit and into the attic or ceiling space.
Warranty information: A 15-year warranty is available on installations completed by a Unico preferred contractor. For more information, visit https://tech.unicosystem.com/upc.
