{"product_id":"runtru-a5ac4-14-3-seer2-ac","title":"RunTru A5AC4 Air Conditioner Condenser — 1.5 to 5 Ton, 14.3 SEER2, R-454B","description":"\u003ch3\u003eTrane's economy tier, not an unknown import\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRunTru is Trane Technologies' value brand — the same company that builds Trane, applying the same engineering to a simpler specification and selling it at a builder's price. That distinction is the reason to consider it. The cheapest condensers on the market are usually brands with no service history and no parts network behind them. The A5AC4 is the economy tier of a company whose premium tier is listed alongside it here, and whose parts are stocked in supply houses in every state.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e14.3 SEER2 is the floor, and that is the point\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e14.3 SEER2 is the lowest efficiency the current federal standard allows on a new split-system air conditioner across the southern states. That is not a criticism of this unit — it is what makes it the right purchase for a specific buyer. If you are replacing a condenser in a rental, finishing a flip, or handing the power bill to a tenant, efficiency above the minimum is money you spend and somebody else recovers. The A5AC4 buys a current-generation unit at the compliant floor and spends nothing on efficiency you will never see back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eR-454B means current, not clearance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis unit ships on R-454B, the low-GWP refrigerant that replaced R-410A. Equipment still being sold on R-410A is previous-generation inventory: that refrigerant is in a scheduled phase-down and its price climbs as supply tightens. A system installed today on R-454B is serviceable on the refrigerant the trade is moving toward rather than the one it is leaving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSingle-stage, all-aluminum, simple to service\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne compressor stage, one speed, no inverter board. Fewer components that can fail, and any licensed technician can diagnose it without a proprietary service tool or a factory-only part. The coils are all-aluminum rather than copper-tube with aluminum fins, which removes the galvanic corrosion that shortens coil life in coastal and high-humidity installations — most of the South, in other words.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMatching it correctly\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe A5AC4 is designed to pair with the RunTru A5AHC multi-position air handler. Your SEER2 rating belongs to the certified pair and never to the condenser by itself, so check the AHRI reference number published on the listing for the exact combination you are buying. If you would rather not assemble the match yourself, the complete system is listed as a single item.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"RunTru by Trane","offers":[{"title":"1.5 Ton","offer_id":49310247452931,"sku":"A5AC4018B1000A","price":1810.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 Ton","offer_id":49310247485699,"sku":"A5AC4024B1000A","price":1935.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2.5 Ton","offer_id":49310247518467,"sku":"A5AC4030B1000A","price":2062.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3 Ton","offer_id":49310247551235,"sku":"A5AC4036B1000A","price":2185.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3.5 Ton","offer_id":49310247584003,"sku":"A5AC4042B1000A","price":2359.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4 Ton","offer_id":49310247616771,"sku":"A5AC4048B1000A","price":2526.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 Ton","offer_id":49310247649539,"sku":"A5AC4060B1000A","price":2866.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0828\/3278\/5667\/files\/runtru-condenser.jpg?v=1784771671","url":"https:\/\/hvacsupplypro.com\/products\/runtru-a5ac4-14-3-seer2-ac","provider":"HVAC Supply Pro","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
