Features & Benefits

RP14 Series

The RP14 is our 14 SEER heat pump and is part of the Rheem

heat pump product line that extends from 14 to 20 SEER. This

highly featured and reliable heat pump is designed for years of

reliable, efficient operation when matched with Rheem indoor

aluminum evaporator coils and furnaces or air handler units with

aluminum evaporators.

Our unique composite base ( ) reduces sound emission, elimi-

nates rattles, significantly reduces fasteners, eliminates corrosion

and has integrated brass compressor attachment inserts

()

Furthermore it has incorporated into the design, water manage-

ment features, means for hand placement

()

for unit maneu-

vering, screw trays ( ) and inserts for lifting unit off pad. ( )

Service Valves ( ) are rigidly mounted in the composite base

with 3" between suction and discharge valves, 4" clearance

below service valves and a minimum of 5" above the service

valves, creating industry leading installation ease. The minimum

27-square inches around the service valves allows ample room

to remove service valve schrader prior to brazing, plenty of

clearance for easy brazing of the suction and discharge lines to

service valve outlets, easy access and hookup of low loss refrig-

erant gauges ( ), and access to the service valve caps for

opening. For applications with long-line lengths up to 250 feet

total equivalent length, up to 200 feet heat pump above evapo-

rator, or up to 80 feet evaporator above heat pump, the long-line

instructions in the installation manual should be followed.

Controls are accessed from the corner of the unit by removing

only two fasteners from the control access cover, revealing the

industry’s largest 15" wide and 14" tall control area

()

. With all

this room in the control area the high voltage electrical whip ( )

can easily be inserted through the right size opening in the bot-

tom of the control area. Routing it leads directly to contractor

lugs for connection. The low voltage control wires

()

are easily

connected to units low voltage wiring. If contactor defrost con-

trol or capacitor ( ) needs to be replaced there is more than

adequate space to make the repair. Furthermore, the service

window ( ) can be removed to access the TXV and reversing

valve by removing two screws or the entire corner can be removed

providing ultimate access to the TXV or reversing valve.

()

If in the rare event, greater access is needed to internal compo-

nents, such as the compressor, the entire corner of the unit can

be removed along with the top cover assembly to have unprece-

dented access to interior of the unit

()

. Extra wire length is

incorporated into each outdoor fan and compressor so top cover

and control panel can be positioned next to unit. With minimal

effort the plug can be removed from the compressor and the

outdoor fan wires can be removed from the capacitor to allow

even more uncluttered access to the interior of the unit

()

Outdoor coils heights range from as short as 22" to 32", aiding

access to the compressor. Disassembly to this degree and com-

plete reassembly only takes a first time service technician less

than 10 minutes.

()

All units utilize strong formed louver panels which provide indus-

try leading coil protection. Louver removal for coil cleaning is

accomplished by removing one screw and lifting the panel out

of the composite base pan

().

All RP14 units utilize single row

coils ( ) making cleaning easy and complete, restoring the

performance of the heat pump back to out of the box perfor-

mance levels year after year.

The outdoor fan motor has sleeve bearings and is inherently

protected. The motor is totally enclosed for maximum protection

from weather, dust and corrosion. Access to the outdoor fan is

made by removing four fasteners from the fan grille. The outdoor

fan can be removed from the fan grille by removing 4 fasteners

in the rare case outdoor fan motor fails.

Each cabinet has optimized composite ( ) fan orifice assuring

efficient and quiet airflow.
