Product Overview
THIS IS THE INDOOR UNIT ONLY. IT IS COMPATIBLE WITH FRIEDRICH FLOATING AIR MULTI-ZONE, SELECT AND PRO SINGLE ZONE SYSTEMS. PLEASE SEE FRIEDRICH-FSHW183D FOR THE FULL SELECT SINGLE ZONE SYSTEM OR FRIEDRICH-FPHW183D FOR THE FULL PRO SINGLE ZONE SYSTEM (EACH SINGLE ZONE SYSTEM INCLUDES THE INDOOR AND OUTDOOR UNITS).
This is the indoor unit only. It must be used with a compatible outdoor condenser.
The Friedrich Floating Air Wall Units feature FastPro Technology making installation and maintenance a much easier, less time consuming task. FastPro gives your HVAC technician easy access to the entire indoor unit, including piping, wire terminal, the fan and fan components. The front panel of your wall unit can be propped open with sliding bolts to keep the cover up and out of the way. If more room is needed to work, there is a slide bar than can be pushed out for a wider space. This makes installation of the refrigerant lines and wiring a much more manageable, less time consuming task for your HVAC technician. Interior parts such as the return air filters and the entire blower wheel assembly are easily removed for cleaning or servicing (away from your room of installation) and re-installed quickly. Servicing should always be left for the HVAC Technicians. FastPro also gives the technician easy access to the coils for maintenance and cleaning.
The FAHFW18A3D 18,000 BTU indoor wall unit is used with both Select Series AND Pro Series outdoor compressors. When used with the Select Series outdoor unit (FSHSR18B3D), low ambient operation includes cooling operation to 5°F and heating operation down to -5°F! The Select Series outdoor compressor uses R32 Refrigerant. When used in the Pro Line system, low ambient operation includes cooling operation to 5°F and heating operation down to -13°F. Both system boast built-in WiFi and access to Friedrich ComfortPro App for wireless control as well as Google Assistant and Alexa voice commands. The FAHFW18A3D is also compatible with the multi-zone units. These compressors use R454B refrigerant. When used in combination with the Pro Line multi-zone outdoor compressor, low ambient operation includes cooling operation to 5°F and heating operation down to -13°F.
The wall units offer optimized air flow with 4-way air swing that send the conditioned air to all corners of your space. The 18,000 BTUs will cool a room that is about 800 sq. ft. Factors such as windows, doors, computers and ceiling height must be factored in when calculating the BTUs you need for your specific installation requirements. The heat pump will give you 18,000 BTUs of heat. Each unit operates with its own remote control (included) or can be connected to a wall thermostat/controller.
