ACIQ Extreme Series 3.5 Ton 16.7 SEER2 High Efficiency Heat Pump Split System - R454B Inverter - Multi-Positional

OVERVIEW ACIQ's Central Ducted Heat Pump systems give you the best of both worlds - a self-adjusting, mini-split-style inverter condenser matched to a communicating air handler that attaches seamlessly to your existing ductwork. How is it different from a traditional heat pump? Traditional heat pumps rely on expensive heat strips below 30°F ACIQ central ducted heat pumps save up to 75% in temps below 30°F Variable BTU inverter ramps up and down to match demand Smart system with soft startups to maximize efficiency OK to size for heat - will not short cycle during cooling Extreme Heat technology keeps you warm to -22°F and beyond ACiQ Extreme Series: Built for Cold Climate PerformanceACiQ Extreme Series systems are engineered to deliver reliable heating and cooling in climates where standard heat pumps begin to struggle. Designed for enhanced low-temperature performance, these systems maintain heating capacity in colder conditions, helping keep your home comfortable when it matters most. By leveraging advanced inverter technology, Extreme Series systems adjust output in real time to maintain consistent indoor temperatures while improving overall efficiency. This results in fewer temperature swings, quieter operation, and better year-round comfort compared to traditional single-stage equipment. Built for durability and real-world conditions, ACiQ Extreme systems are designed to perform across a wide range of environments. From cold winter mornings to peak summer heat, the Extreme Series delivers dependable comfort backed by thoughtful engineering and proven performance.ACIQ 3.5 Ton 16.7 SEER2 High Efficiency Central Heat Pump | Inverter | Extreme Series - R454BOVERVIEW Inverter - The ACIQ-42-HPD 3.5 ton Extreme series central inverter heat pump utilizes inverter technology to convert AC power to DC, allowing the compressor inside your condenser to speed up and slow down. This allows the system to self-adjust BTU output based on demand. As the weather changes, so will your system output. Learning Condenser - Equipped with advanced sensors, this condenser monitors indoor and outdoor air temperature, duct pressure, refrigerant temperature, and overall performance. During the initial startup, it enters a learning mode that optimizes future operations for maximum efficiency by collecting and storing data. Adaptive Sizing - With its self-adjusting inverter design, the ACIQ-42-HPD can be sized based on your heating needs. Standard heat pumps may cause discomfort during summer when sized for heat, but this unit automatically adjusts to function like a smaller unit, ensuring ideal cooling performance without excess humidity. Extreme Heat Technology - "Extreme Heat" means extended temperature range heating all the way down to -22°F. Traditional heat pumps cannot produce significant heat below about 30°F outside temperature. Below that threshold, they rely on expensive backup electric heat. The ACIQ-42-HPD uses the inverter to vary the refrigerant flow, allowing for maximum heat extraction during extreme cold temperatures. The backup electric heat supplements the heat pump, and only takes over below -22°F. The heat pump gives 100% at 0°F, and still gives 80% at -22°F, saving you up to 75% on cold weather heating bills. QUICK FACTS Variable BTU output based on demand: 12,000-42,000 BTU for cooling, 12,000-50,000 for heating R454B refrigerant Inverter heat pump system for ducted applications Efficient cooling from -22°F to 122°F outdoor temperatures Efficient heating from -22°F to 75°F outdoor temperatures Durable gold fin condenser coil coating for longevity Quiet operation, even under high workloads 3.5 Ton, 16.7 SEER2 Boasting an efficiency rating of 16.7 SEER2, the ACIQ-42-HPD provides versatile comfort across a range of climates by providing reliable comfort with a variable output that eliminates short cycling for lasting efficiency. Use our sizing calculator (found HERE) to determine the demand for your home. Extreme Heat Base Pan Heater Technology Each ACiQ condenser has integrated Extreme Heat technology to maximize heat performance in extreme cold weather. Extended heat pump performance (HyperHeat) harnesses the power of inverter condenser with outdoor temp sensing, variable refrigerant flow and variable condenser fan speed to maximize heat extraction all the way down to -22°F. Plus, every Extreme Heat ACiQ condenser includes a base pan heater to keep ice from collecting on the condenser coil during heat pump operation. Quality Construction State-of-the-Art manufacturing is behind every ACiQ product, resulting in quiet, effective operation over a long service life. Most models have low ambient heating and cooling. Highest Efficiency ACiQ saves you money up front, but also over time by reducing energy bills. Every ACiQ condenser features a variable inverter twin rotary compressor, lowering wear and increasing performance. Compare specs against other brands in the same price category, and you will agree, ACiQ is th
