1.5 Ton 19 SEER2 High Efficiency Central Heat Pump System Extreme+ Series | Inverter
ACiQ’s Extreme+ heat pump systems redefine year-round home comfort. Designed with a powerful, self-adjusting mini-split-style inverter condenser and a fully communicating air handler, this system connects effortlessly to your existing ductwork for a quick and seamless installation.
The ACiQ-18-HPD 1.5 Ton Extreme Series Heat Pump features inverter technology that transforms AC power to DC, allowing the compressor to ramp up or slow down as needed. This continuous modulation enables the system to automatically match its BTU output to real-time demands, keeping your home consistently comfortable in any weather.
Equipped with a suite of advanced sensors, the condenser monitors everything from indoor and outdoor temperatures to duct pressure and refrigerant levels. Upon initial startup, it enters a learning mode—analyzing conditions and adjusting performance for long-term efficiency and system optimization.
Thanks to its self-regulating inverter design, the ACiQ-18-HPD provides optimal performance whether you're heating or cooling. Traditional systems often compromise summer comfort when sized for winter heating—but this unit intelligently scales output, acting like a smaller system in cooling mode to avoid overcooling and excess humidity.
With ACiQ’s "Extreme Heat" technology, this system delivers dependable heat in temperatures as low as -22°F. While most heat pumps rely on costly backup electric heat below 30°F, the ACiQ-18-HPD maintains efficient operation by varying refrigerant flow for maximum heat extraction. It delivers 100% heating capacity at 0°F and maintains 80% at -22°F, reducing your reliance on backup heat and cutting winter energy costs by up to 75%.
The ACiQ-18-PAH Extreme+ air handler is one of the most versatile on the market. With a variable-speed DC blower and advanced communicating controls, it delivers top-tier performance in any climate. Designed for multi-positional installation—including upflow, downflow, or horizontal—it fits into a variety of duct setups with ease. It communicates seamlessly with your thermostat and the outdoor unit to automatically optimize system output, ensuring consistent comfort and peak efficiency.

Installing the ACiQ Extreme+ central ducted air handler is straightforward and similar to replacing a standard air handler. Your technician will handle electrical, refrigerant, thermostat, and communication connections, along with tying the unit into your existing return and supply ductwork. Designed with a slim cabinet and multi-position capability (upflow, downflow, or horizontal), this air handler is both space-efficient and highly versatile. It works with any 24V thermostat that supports two stages of heating.
Optional electric heat kits are available for additional heating support on the coldest days. For added convenience, the built-in intelligent control board displays fault codes to help diagnose any system issues quickly during maintenance.
This air handler must be installed alongside a compatible condenser and other system components, which are sold separately if not already included in your product bundle. If you plan to use straight electric heating, a compatible electric heat kit is required and available at an additional cost.
