The UA/RA and UP/RP 3+ Stage series of products are highly specialized HVAC systems that must be installed by certified Rheem/Ruud Trained Contractors only. If anyone other than a certified Rheem/Ruud Trained Contractor installs this unit or system, all warranty coverage will be voided. Please be sure to consult with your Contractor to ensure they qualify.

The Rheem U/RP18AZ Heat Pump offers one of the highest efficiencies available today. Just like a vehicle’s MPG, the higher the SEER2, EER2 and HSPF2 rating (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio / Energy Efficiency Ratio / Heating Seasonal Performance Factor), the higher the efficiency of your heat pump—resulting in more energy savings. Keep in mind, there are other factors that enhance overall efficiency such as system matching, sizing, ductwork and installation. By working with a properly trained contractor, you can be confident that you are choosing the best heating and cooling system for your home’s comfort—and your finances.

• Variable Speed Scroll Compressor & Inverter Drive: — Features variable speed operation from 40 to 100% capacity with the EcoNet ® Smart Thermostat — Offers overdrive capability up to 115% to maintain performance in extreme conditions — Provides precise temperature control, advanced humidity control and greater efficiency
• Brushless DC Condenser Motors (BLDC): Enhances reliability and allows for easier serviceability
• Swept Wing Fan Technology: Features quieter operation and improved unit acoustics
• Ultimate Comfort: Inverter driven, variable speed compressor technology features cooling operation between 40% and 100% of capacity (with overdrive capability up to 115% in extreme conditions) to continuously meet your ever-changing cooling needs. You’ll enjoy exact temperature and advanced humidity control that combine to exceed your optimal comfort expectations.
• Reduced Emissions: Households generate 72% of greenhouse gas emissions, so switching to a heat pump can make a big difference for the environment—today.
• Rugged Curb Appeal: Curved louvered panels and rugged corner posts provide excellent support and protection to internal components, while the overall modern cabinet aesthetics, including the corrosion-resistant composite base pan and powder coat paint system allow your unit to put its best face forward for years to come.
• Quiet Operation: Efficient home comfort shouldn’t be noisy. That’s why our heat pumps are engineered with acoustics in mind. Sound-dampening features such as refrigerant tubing design, fan blade approach, composite base pan and innovative compressor and drive technologies ensure that as efficiency increases, sound levels remain low.
