The ClimateMaster Geothermal Advantage: • Low Utility Bills: Components and design so highly evolved make ClimateMaster geothermal heat pumps the most efficient energy saver anywhere.
• Flexibility: You get heating, central air conditioning, and domestic hot water... three important benefits from a single compact unit.
• Comfort: A system that automatically adjusts to satisfy changing weather conditions by using advanced Two-Stage compressors and an air delivery system that responds to your comfort needs.
• Safe and Clean: Geothermal heating and cooling has no flame, no flue, no odors, and no danger of fumes.
• Homeowner Satisfaction: Independent consumer surveys rate geothermal systems as having the highest customer satisfaction compared to other types of heating and cooling systems.
• Noise-Free Operation: Unlike traditional air conditioners or heat pumps, geothermal units have no noisy outdoor fans to disturb you or your neighbors.
• Unit Performance Sentinel™: Automatic alert system let's you know if the system is not running at peak performance.
• Long System Life: The elegant yet durable design ensures long life, dependable operation and low maintenance. All residential air coils are specifically treated for longevity.
• MERV 11: Superior air filtration improves indoor air quality. Compared to traditional fiberglass air filters, the MERV 11 removes up to 9 times more dust, lasts 3 times longer and captures nearly 100% of pollen and spores. (Standard on Tranquility 27 and 20 Models)
The Tranquility 27™ Series Using EarthPure® Ozone Safe Refrigerant, the Tranquility 27 is a breakthrough in efficiency – providing you with the greatest energy savings of any space conditioning system and unprecedented environmental protection at the same time. The Tranquility 27 with two-stage compressor and variable speed fan offers the latest in geothermal heat pump technology.
The Tranquility 27 is so sophisticated it automatically adjusts itself to provide the optimum, consistent indoor air temperatures regardless of the weather extremes.
Advanced Two-Stage Technology allows the Tranquility 27 to operate at the most efficient level for all weather conditions. The Tranquility 27 has some of the industry’s highest efficiency ratings.
Advanced two-stage design allows the Tranquility 27 to “match” performance to meet all weather conditions:
- On those cold winter days the second stage automatically engages when needed to keep your home warm and comfortable.
- During the hottest months the second stage automatically engages when needed to provide additional cooling.
- In mild spring and fall months only the first stage is needed to provide optimum indoor comfort.
- Ninety percent of the year the Tranquility 27runs on first stage. The second stage kicks in automatically only when needed in the hottest and coldest months of the year. Using an electronic variable-speed fan motor, the Tranquility 27 assures you of high comfort, maximum efficiency, superior dehumidification, and low utility bills.
The energy-efficiency criteria for geothermal heat pumps to qualify for the Energy Star program requires an EER rating of 14.1 (closed loop systems) or 16.2 (open loop systems). The Tranquility 27 has a EER rating of 27 – showing that not all Energy Star qualified systems are equal.
Tranquility 27. One of the most energy efficient space conditioning system available from any manufacturer, anywhere on the planet.
Polyethylene Loop Piping Closed loop systems use a network of
buried high-density polyethylene (plastic) pipe, circulating a
water/antifreeze solution from the ground to the heat pump. These
systems are sealed and pressured, and thus recirculate the fluid,
eliminating any water usage. Polyethylene pipe is always utilized to
insure long life and system reliability.
Milk jugs are made
from polyethylene. Polyethylene is a very tough plastic, especially
when considering the wall thickness of a milk jug (pipe wall thickness
is many times greater), but it is also extremely flexible, which allows
the pipe to avoid damage even as the ground shifts. All connections are
heat fused, which is a welding process, whereby the pipe and fitting
are heated up to the melting point, around 500°F [260°C].
The
two pieces are joined together while the plastic is still in its molten
state. Once cooled, the joint is stronger than the pipe itself.
Therefore, leak potential of the in-ground piping is nearly
nonexistent. Properly installed, loop piping will last more than 50
years!
ECM Variable Speed Fan Motors One of the most
important aspects of a geothermal heating and cooling system is it’s
ability to deliver the conditioned or heated air into your home. For
the ultimate in airflow control, ClimateMaster offers an available ECM
Variable Speed fan motor on the Genesis Packaged and Tranquility 20™
Series (Standard on Tranquility 27™).
Unlike a conventional
blower motor, which is designed to operate at one speed, the ECM motor
can run in a wide range of speeds. This ability allows the motor to
match the unit airflow to the ductwork system in any home.
