Efficiency Ratings:13.4 SEER2 / 6.7 HSPF2 / 81% AFUE
- Energy-efficient scroll compressor
- Stainless-steel heat exchanger
- All-aluminum evaporator coil
Energy Efficiency
Energy efficiency and cost savings are co-related in Dual Fuel units. A gas furnace’s efficiency rating is primarily based on two factors: its AFUE rating (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency), which indicates the percentage of each dollar spent on natural gas that effectively heats your home, and the type of blower used in the furnace.
Dual-Fuel Capability
Designed for colder climates, this dual-fuel heat pump is best suitable for homes that need higher heating capacities annually along with the benefits of the cost-effective operation of a heat pump. The DSPDM3 unit from the DesertShield brand delivers both functionalities in a single, convenient unit.
Quiet Comfort
Rest assured that your DesertShield brand Dual-Fuel Unit guarantees quiet operation. To reduce operational noise, we’ve integrated quiet scroll compressor technology with a high-density foam cover and a fully insulated blower compartment, ensuring unobtrusive performance.
