Friedrich FRA14AY30AJ1NALHP Condensing Unit 2.5 Ton 14 SEER2

Product Description

The FRIEDRICH FRA14AY30AJ1NALHP is a single-stage residential air conditioning condensing unit rated at 30,000 BTU/h (2.5 nominal tons) and designed for R454B refrigerant. Operating at 14 SEER2, this unit meets current federal minimum efficiency standards for split-system cooling equipment. The condensing unit houses the compressor, condenser coil, and condenser fan motor in a single outdoor cabinet, rejecting heat absorbed from the indoor coil. Licensed HVAC technicians install and commission this equipment as part of a split-system cooling or heat pump installation.

This condensing unit is suited for residential and light-commercial split-system cooling applications requiring a 2.5-ton capacity. R454B is an A2L mildly flammable refrigerant, so installations must comply with current applicable mechanical codes and local authority having jurisdiction requirements for A2L refrigerant handling, leak detection, and ventilation. Single-stage operation provides straightforward on-off compressor cycling controlled by a conventional low-voltage thermostat.

Key Features

• 30,000 BTU/h nominal cooling capacity at 2.5 tons
• 14 SEER2 efficiency rating meets current federal minimum standards
• R454B refrigerant — lower global warming potential than R-410A
• Single-stage compressor operation for straightforward system control
• Outdoor condensing unit designed for split-system pairing with a matched indoor coil

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style outdoor condensing unit for residential split-system cooling installations requiring a 2.5-ton, single-stage, R454B-compatible configuration at 14 SEER2.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by an EPA Section 608-certified HVAC technician authorized to handle A2L refrigerants. Disconnect and lock out all power to the air handler and outdoor unit before making electrical or refrigerant connections. Follow current ASHRAE 15, local mechanical codes, and the manufacturer installation instructions for A2L refrigerant clearances, line set sizing, and leak detection requirements. Do not use this unit with refrigerants other than R454B.
