Product Overview
THIS IS THE INDOOR UNIT ONLY. IT IS COMPATIBLE WITH BOTH FRIEDRICH MULTI-ZONE AND SINGLE ZONE SYSTEMS. PLEASE SEE FRIEDRICH-FPHD123 FOR THE FULL SINGLE ZONE SYSTEM (INCLUDING THE INDOOR AND OUTDOOR UNITS).
This is the indoor unit only. It must be used with a compatible outdoor condenser.
The FPHFD12A3A is a 12,000 BTU concealed duct indoor unit. It is compatible with both Friedrich Single Zone and Multi-Zone Pro Series Systems. As a single zone system, it is used in conjunction with the FPHFR12A3A Outdoor Unit. Technical information provided for the indoor unit, FPHFD12A3A, reflects specifications when unit is installed as part of a multi zone system. When used in a single zone application the specifications may change slightly - please see FPHD123 for specifics.
Whether you are using the indoor unit as part of a single or multi zone system, the Friedrich compressors all feature variable speed precision inverter technology. This increases the systems energy efficiency and gives you the comfort of knowing your system is running quietly outside. Additionally, these systems will operate in extreme conditions with built-in low ambient operation down to -4°F in the Cooling mode and down to -13°F in the Heating mode.
The concealed ducted ceiling units, regardless of BTUs, have adjustable static pressure by using the wire remote controller. Each indoor unit requires its own temperature controller, so each room can be set to different temperatures. In a multi zone installation, the individual units are connected to a single exterior unit.
Features of the Concealed Ceiling Ducted unit include:
The Ceiling-Concealed, Ducted indoor unit designed for applications where mounting above a finished ceiling is desired.
