Serviceability features: Compact cabinet design with quick access for ease of service. Horizontal units can be serviced through the unit bottom to virtually eliminate removing ceiling-mounted units for service.
Noise-reduction features: Provided as standard, the unit has a dual-level vibration isolation system. A heavy-gauge mounting plate is isolated from the cabinet via a dense neoprene pad to minimize vibration transfer. The compressor is then isolated from the mounting plate with standard rubber in shear isolators to enhance the dual-level vibration isolation. The compressor is located in a well-insulated compartment, separated from the air stream to minimize sound transmission.
IAQ equipment supported: Manufacturer did not specify.
Thermostat compatibility: Compatible with most thermostats.
Replacement parts compatibility: Some shared parts and some unique parts.
Additional features: Capacities ranging from .5- to 5-ton with single-stage EERs up to 17 (water loop) conditions in a compact cabinet designed for ease of services. With optional hot gas reheat for temperature and humidity control, as well as hybrid heating and cooling, the CAS series has flexibility over a wide range of applications.
Warranty information: Standard one-year warranty on compressor and parts. Extended five-year warranty is optional.
Special installation requirements: Manufacturer did not specify.

eProduct: 211
Serviceability features: Supply openings in multiple locations. Supply grille aluminum construction minimizes future maintenance and eliminates oxidation from condensation. Inner service panel is removable, allowing access to control wiring and internal piping. The plug-in-type fan/motor assembly is easily removed through return air opening, with electronically commutated motor (ECM) technology.
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 the need for 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: Compatible with most thermostats.
Replacement parts compatibility: 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 insulated compressor compartment and vibration isolation.
Warranty information: The cabinet carries a 15-month warranty, chassis carries a one-year warranty, and the compressor and refrigeration circuit carry a five-year warranty.
Special installation requirements: Manufacturer did not specify.
