TRUSTED PERFORMANCE IN A COMPACT PACKAGED UNIT
THE PROFESSIONAL'S CHOICE

A legacy of craftsmanship and commitment
Our 80-year history is built on the foundation of strong products and an even stronger dedication to excellence. The full line of Armstrong AirTM packaged units are the perfect example of what happens when you set out to be the best. Quiet, energy efficient and made with pride by people who know quality, Armstrong Air packaged units represent the premium choice of HVAC professionals throughout North America.
Expert guidance every step of the way
Choosing the right HVAC professional is just as important as choosing the right packaged unit to buy. Selecting an Armstrong Air Dealer means working with a true HVAC professional. You can be confident knowing their knowledge and expertise will help you make the right decisions on all your HVAC needs. They'll also help ensure your system operates at maximum performance for years to come.

Helping create your environment, your way.

At Armstrong Air, creating the perfect system for you is our first priority. We recognize that buying a new packaged unit is a big decision. Having all the facts, and some professional advice, can help you select the system best suited for your home and your family's needs. When selecting a unit, it's important to remember that everyone's needs are different.What's most important to you and your family? Here are a few things to consider:

Efficiency A high-efficiency system helps lower your monthly utility bills. Efficiency can be measured in a number of different ways:

· The Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) rating of an air conditioner or heat pump averages the unit's cooling performance for a typical season. The higher the SEER number, the greater the efficiency and energy savings.

· The Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER) measures the cooling efficiency of an air conditioner or heat pump. Again, the higher the EER, the more efficient the system.

· Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) is shown as a percentage and relates to fossil fuel usage. An AFUE of 90% means that 90% of the fuel was turned into actual heat energy, while only 10% was lost.

Replacing an older unit with a 14 SEER or higher unit can increase performance and start saving you money immediately.

Reliability
You can always count on your Armstrong Air unit. Technology developments, such as MHTTM, plus other advanced-design features, work together to deliver premium performance and extend the life of your packaged unit.

Air Quality
Where you live matters. Your family's sensitivity to a host of natural and man-made allergens means enhanced air quality is all the more critical in your home. And don't forget humidity levels when you're considering the ideal system for year-round comfort.

Peace of Mind

72º

Your Armstrong Air packaged unit's electronic control system continuously monitors operation and generates LED codes to help technicians solve

problems faster and more accurately.

Noise Reduction
Comfort and performance factors also include quiet operation of your system. Enjoy peace and quiet with select models featuring a high-quality sound blanket for noise reduction.*

*Sound blanket available on 16 SEER unit only.

Packaged Unit System Basics
A complete packaged unit system conveniently packs heating and cooling into one box. It arrives at your home ready to go and fully optimized for outstanding performance and efficiency.
How compressor stages affect performance
72º
Single stage means cooling is either all the way on or all the way off, creating temperature swings.
72º
Two stage runs at low or high operating speeds, depending on conditions, creating more even, consistent temperatures.
How motor stages affect temperature control
72º
Constant Torque: The single-speed blower maintains the right amount of airflow, providing better efficiency.
72º Variable Speed: The blower constantly adjusts airflow and humidity levels, which creates more even temperatures throughout your home, while also being the most energy efficient.

How It Works*

How it Works
PACKAGED SYSTEM 2

1
1. W hen the home gets too warm, the air conditioner component of the packaged system cools it down by removing heat from the air inside.
2. T o warm your home comfortably and efficiently on cold days, the packaged heat pump reverses the refrigeration cycle and transfers heat from warmed coils.
3. R ather than attaching to individual components within the home, the packaged system connects directly with ductwork to disperse warm or cool air in every room.
4. G as-electric packaged units--which combine an electric air conditioner with a natural gas-powered furnace--offer the best of both worlds for outstanding energy efficiency and performance.

Inside the design of Armstrong AirTM packaged units:

Internal Monitoring:
Your Armstrong Air packaged unit's electronic control system continuously monitors operation and generates LED codes to help technicians solve problems faster and more accurately.

MHTTM Technology:
In this proprietary heat transfer system from Armstrong Air, the coil features rifled tubing to enhance refrigerant flow, while lanced coil fins increase surface contact between metal and air. T hey combine for maximum heat transfer and efficiency.
Integrated Compressor Protection:
The combination of both high- and low-pressure switches gives additional reliability to each unit.The high-pressure switch prevents operation if refrigerant pressures exceed safe levels, protecting the compressor. In the event that your unit does not have enough refrigerant, the low-pressure switch prevents the unit from drawing in moisture and other contaminants while operating.
Single-Stage Compressor (14 SEER only):
A time-proven design chosen for its consistent performance, incredible durability and long operating life, the single-stage compressor works hard year after year.
Vibration Reduction:
Each compressor is constructed with rubber pads to reduce vibration during operation. Less vibration lowers sound, so your outdoor entertaining is not interrupted.
Tri-DiamondTM Technology (Gas/Electric and Dual Fuel only):
Our unique Tri-Diamond design increases the heat exchanger's surface area, making heat transfer more efficient.This allows for a smaller heat exchanger that requires less energy to operate.
Tilted Heat Exchanger:
By tilting the heat exchanger, the Tri-Diamond design eliminates issues caused by condensation developed during the cooling season. As a result, these units start up when they're supposed to, year after year.
Built-In Pest Control:
Even during the off-season, Armstrong Air packaged units periodically cycle on the heating components. This creates an inhospitable environment for birds, rodents and insects, keeping them from nesting inside.

Packaged units offer the perfect combination of reliability and efficiency.

PRPAC14 & PRPHP14
Dependability meets modern design
The PRPAC14 electric air conditioner is ideal if you have all-electric heating and cooling in your home. If you live in an area that experiences consistently mild temperatures, the PRPHP14 heat pump is a perfect solution for both heating and cooling. Both units offer an efficiency rating up to 14 SEER, which can help you save money on utility bills. Advanced MHTTM Technology allows maximum heat transfer. And a constant torque motor delivers enhanced energy savings and more consistent airflow.
