American Standard TAMX and Platinum 20 Heat Pump Pairing
Several techs out to conduct proper sizing, and generally agree with a 4 ton system. In San Antonio, TX.
One of them proposed to use this setup:American Standard 4A6V0048A1000
American Standard TAMXA0C48V41DA
20Kwh heater BAYEABC20BK1
Thermostat AZON1050There is just nothing on the TAMX, as its new, and there was a recent thread that talked about these new units.
I can find information on the heat pump and the AHRI is like 19.5 or so. Fine.
My concern is that the Heat Pump might be a previous generation not be able to fully utilize all the communicating bus on TAMX nor that new SC/UX 360 thermostat. I’m sure they know what they are doing, but wanted to bounce this off you folks.
1) Is this condenser an ideal match to the handler? and the Thermostat?
2) If not ideal, what functionality would be limited?
NOTE: Equipment on backorder, no surprises there…
Thanks
Personally Id stick with the tried and true 14 seer, maybe as high as 16. Unless you have the finances and you just really want it. But I would not view that stuff as an investment.The only high seer equipment that has consistently been phenomenal is Mitsubishi. And I know they merged with Trane but until Mitsubishi irons out some Trane stupidity Id stay away from the Trane high seer stuff.
By the way I forgot you said American Standard because my brain just instantly converts that to Trane just FYI an American Standard is a Trane.
