Ruud RA15AY30AJ1NALHP Condensing Unit 2.5 Ton R454B

Product Description

The RUUD RA15AY30AJ1NALHP is a 2.5-ton residential air conditioning condensing unit rated at 15 SEER2 and designed to operate with R454B refrigerant. Part of the RUUD M1 series, this unit delivers 30,000 BTU/h of cooling capacity and meets current SEER2 efficiency standards required under DOE regulations. It is installed outdoors as the condensing side of a split-system air conditioning setup. Licensed HVAC technicians handle installation and commissioning, including refrigerant handling under EPA Section 608 certification requirements.

This condensing unit is suited for residential split-system cooling applications where a 2.5-ton capacity is appropriate. The R454B refrigerant charge is a lower-GWP alternative to R-410A, aligning with current and near-term environmental compliance requirements. The M1 series is positioned as a standard-efficiency product line within the RUUD residential cooling lineup, making it a practical replacement or new-install option for typical single-family residential systems.
