Bosch Adds Wireless Connectivity to Inverter Heat Pumps
Bosch Thermotechnology announced the newest and most advanced addition to its inverter ducted split family; IDS Premium Connected. This air source heat pump system provides maximum comfort with minimum energy usage and adds an interactive, connected platform for contractors and homeowners.
IDS Premium Connected features wireless connectivity to the Bosch EasyAir App, allowing contractors to easily access the information they need to conduct onsite installation, troubleshooting and warranty registration. Homeowners can use the app to monitor their energy usage and receive critical alerts, as well as contact their contractors for maintenance and repairs.
The new addition provides a premium 20-plus SEER energy efficiency, whisper quiet sound levels as low as 56 dBA and easy installation in a small, compact physical footprint. The fully modulating inverter compressor offers 36-130% capacity with modulation in 1% increments. In practice, this capability allows the addition to precisely match the heating and cooling load while achieving maximum efficiency. This system also has a heating seasonal performance rating of 10.5 and can provide heating even when outdoor temperatures drop as low as -4 F. The accompanying air handler includes a two-stage x13 electronically commutated motor blower for enhanced humidity control and an all-aluminum coil for superior corrosion resistance. The outdoor unit is available in 36k Btu and 60k Btu capacity.
