Friedrich FPHD183 18,000 BTU single zone mini split system includes both the FPHFD18A3A concealed ducted ceiling unit and the FPHFR18A3A outdoor compressor. Inverter Technology is only the beginning of the standard money-saving features included with Friedrich Floating Air Pro Series ductless mini split systems. This technology offers the consumer the ability to run their system much more efficiently, and reduce energy costs all while cooling the space and reaching the desired set temperature more quickly. To help keep the room at a comfortable level, longer, the compressor runs at a lower speed instead of shutting off completely. This helps the system to maintain the set temperature, alleviating the need for the system to start up again from a completely shut down state.

The FPHD183 mini split is a 208/230 Volt, 18,000 BTU cooling with heat pump system. It delivers 20.5 SEER2, 9.5 HSPF2 and 11.40 EER ratings. The built-in low ambient cooling capabilities will cool your space when outside temperatures are as low as 5°F. The 18,000 BTU heat pump will work hard to keep you warm. The integrated drain pan will turn on when the temperature drops below 28°F and turns off when the temperature increases to 30°F. The temperature is judged by the ODU Temperature sensor signal. As expected the rated heating capacity does reduce as the temperatures fall. This system will give you 14,700 BTUs at 17°F but with its low ambient heating capacity, will provide heat even with temperatures down to -4°F. If you are need to cool a server room or other equipment year round, this unit's low ambient cooling features make it a great choice.

The concealed ducted ceiling units, regardless of BTUs, have adjustable static pressure by using the included wired wall controller. The Ceiling-Concealed, Ducted indoor unit designed for applications where mounting above a finished ceiling is desired. The 18,000 BTU FPHFD18A3A unit is typically good for large spaces that are up to about 800 sq. ft. Of course, that is approximate and there are other factors that need to be taken into consideration. 
 
Features of the Concealed Ceiling Ducted unit include:
  • Create customizable, 7-day schedules (available with WiFi and optional wall control only) 
  • Adjustable Static Pressure (Varies dependent on indoor unit BTU size) 
  • BLDC motor
  • Cooling/Heating/Fan Mode
  • Dry mode
  • 3 Fan speeds
  • Surge cool/heat
  • 24 hour programmable timer
  • Auto restart
  • Auto changeover
  • Control lock function on controller
  • External Static Pressure (ESP) Range .1 - .40 WC

In contrast to central air conditioning, which cools your entire house whenever the system turns on, a mini split cools only the space you want cooled, when you want it cooled! When you install a mini split system, you get all the benefits of individualized room comfort control without losing your view or having to remove and store your unit in the off season. Installation of a mini split system is permanent and non-obtrusive. Installing a Friedrich Mini Split is a relatively easy undertaking. Mini split systems do not require duct work and your system should be up and running in a few hours*.

The outdoor unit includes DiamonBlue Advanced Corrosion Protection to protect the outdoor coil from harsh environments as well as rust and corrosion. Each Friedrich mini split is pre-charged with R410A refrigerant for 25 feet of line. Additionally, the line sets can be as long as 98 feet between the compressor and the indoor unit with a 49 foot height difference. Line sets are sold separately.

*This unit must be installed by a qualified licensed HVAC technician.

The Friedrich Floating Air Series ductless mini split system comes with a 7 year (extended to 10 with product registration) parts and 10 year compressor Manufacturer's warranty. The option of adding a 5 year labor warranty to your coverage is also available (separately) at the time of purchase.
