Oxbox J5AC3018A1000 Split System Air Conditioner 1.5 Ton 18000 Btu 13.4 SEER2 R-454B

Product Description

The Oxbox J5AC3018A1000 is a 1.5-ton residential split system air conditioner rated at 13.4 SEER2, designed for compliance with DOE 2023 efficiency standards. This outdoor condensing unit operates on R-454B refrigerant, a lower global-warming-potential refrigerant now required under current U.S. EPA regulations. The unit is built for single-phase electrical service and is intended for installation by licensed HVAC technicians as part of a matched split system. Its painted, galvanized steel cabinet provides corrosion resistance for outdoor exposure. With an 18,000 BTU/h cooling capacity, this condenser suits smaller residential applications where space and load requirements favor a 1.5-ton system.

The J5AC3018A1000 is suited for residential cooling installations requiring a DOE 2023 compliant outdoor unit. It is designed to pair with a compatible indoor coil or air handler as part of a matched split system. This unit fits single-family homes and light residential applications where a 1.5-ton cooling load is appropriate. Oxbox is a Trane brand, and the product line is positioned as an affordable, serviceable option for HVAC contractors working in the residential replacement and new-construction markets.

Compatibility

Designed as a DOE 2023 compliant outdoor condensing unit for use in matched residential split system configurations. Specific indoor coil and air handler pairings should be verified against the manufacturer matching guide to confirm rated SEER2 system efficiency. Do not mix R-454B components with R-410A or R-32 system components.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed HVAC technician holding the appropriate EPA Section 608 certification for handling refrigerants. Disconnect and lock out all electrical power before servicing or connecting the unit. Follow local mechanical codes and the manufacturer installation manual for proper line set sizing, refrigerant line connections, and clearance requirements. R-454B is a mildly flammable (A2L) refrigerant — consult current ASHRAE 15 and local code requirements for safe handling and equipment room considerations.
