Heat Controller HBH018A1C30CCS Water Source Heat Pump

Product Description

The HEAT CONTROLLER HBH018A1C30CCS is a horizontal water source heat pump rated at 1.5 nominal tons and designed for single-phase 208/230V electrical service using R410A refrigerant. It operates in both water loop and ground water configurations, delivering strong efficiency across both modes. In cooling mode, the ground water circuit achieves an EER of 22 at 59 degrees F entering water temperature, while the water loop circuit reaches an EER of 14 at 86 degrees F EWT. In heating mode, the ground water circuit produces 17,800 BTU/h at 50 degrees F EWT with a COP of 4.2, and the water loop circuit delivers 21,800 BTU/h at 68 degrees F EWT with a COP of 5. A heavy-duty scroll compressor and extended-range refrigerant circuit support reliable performance across a wide range of entering water temperatures. Licensed HVAC technicians handle installation and service of this equipment.

The HBH018A1C30CCS is suited for residential and light commercial applications where space is limited or where a retrofit installation is required. The horizontal cabinet configuration allows placement in low-clearance ceiling plenums, closets, and mechanical rooms. Right-return airflow orientation suits typical horizontal concealed installations. The compact footprint makes this unit a practical choice for retrofit projects where replacing a legacy unit in a confined chase or drop ceiling is necessary. It is equipped with a copper water coil and non-coated air coil, and an integrated performance monitoring system alerts service personnel to potential system faults before they become failures.

Key Features

• Ground water cooling EER of 22 at 59 degrees F EWT for high-efficiency operation
• Water loop heating COP of 5 at 68 degrees F EWT
• Heavy-duty scroll compressor for durable, quiet operation
• Extended-range refrigerant circuit supports variable entering water temperatures
• Performance monitoring system provides early fault signaling
• Compact horizontal design ideal for tight spaces and retrofit applications
• Right-return air configuration for standard horizontal concealed installs

Compatibility

Designed for use in water loop and ground water heat pump systems requiring a horizontal, single-phase, 208/230V unit in the 1.5-ton class with R410A refrigerant and right-return airflow orientation.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local codes and the manufacturer's installation instructions. Disconnect and lock out all electrical power before servicing the unit. Shut off water supply and relieve system pressure before making or breaking water coil connections. R410A refrigerant handling requires EPA Section 608 certification.
