Rheem’s RP15AZ is the ideal split ducted heat pump that qualifies for this tax credit. The RP15AZ heat pump from Rheem features two speeds (high and low) of cooling and heating, providing more precise temperature control, lower humidity and greater efficiency when compared to single stage compressors. It has a 7mm condenser copper coil which requires less refrigerant allowing for a smaller and lighter footprint while enhancing reliability. This electric heat pump also offers PlusOne Triple Service Access, a 15″ wide, industry leading corner service access, two fastener, removeable corner and individual louver panels – makes repairs easier and faster.
