ARI* CAPACITY RATINGS — 581A155,180
LOW HEAT UNITS
HIGH HEAT UNITS
LEGEND
*Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute.
NOTES:
1. Rated in accordance with ARI Standards 360 and 270.
2. ARI ratings are net values, reflecting the effects of circulating fan
heat.
3. Ratings are based on:
Cooling Standard: 80 F db, 67 F wb indoor entering-air tempera-
ture and 95 F db air entering outdoor unit.
IPLV Standard: 80 F db, 67 F wb indoor entering-air temperature
and 80 F db outdoor entering-air temperature.
4. All 581A155, 180 units are in compliance with ASHRAE 90.1-
1999 Energy Standard for minimum EER requirements. Refer to
state and local codes or visit the following website: http://sol-
stice.crest.org/efficiency/bcap to determine if compliance with this
standard pertains to a given geographical area of the United
States.
HEATING CAPACITIES AND EFFICIENCIES — 581A155-180
*All units are 2-stage heat.
†Minimum heating cfm must be maintained to ensure proper heating operation.
NOTE: Minimum allowable temperature of mixed air entering the heat exchanger during first stage
heating is 45 F. There is no minimum mixed-air limitation during second-stage heating. For entering
air temperatures below 45 F, both stages of heat must be energized together to minimize conden-
sation issues and ensure proper unit operation.
