Gemini® Packaged Heat Pump Air-Handling Unit with EcoBlue™ Technology
40RFQ

Heat Pump, with Puron® Refrigerant (R-410A)

6 to 10 Tons

The Gemini® 40RF and 38AU series indoor air handlers and outdoor units provide an excellent option for all your light commercial HVAC needs. The addition of our exclusive EcoBlue™ Technology on the 40RF line improves performance and efficiency while decreasing maintenance and installation costs. The industry’s first beltless direct-drive vane axial fan for a light commercial split system is just one of many technological advances that proves not all air handlers are created equal.

With the addition of a new control board, permanently lubricated motor bearings, and our efficient vane axial fan, our 40RF units are designed for flexible installation and long dependable operation in even your toughest light commercial projects. All Gemini® 38AU Condensing Units and 40RF Fan Coils use environmentally sound Puron® refrigerant to create a reliable split system that provides easy solutions to a wide range of commercial HVAC needs.

The 40RFQ heat pump air handlers are exclusively offered with matched 38AUQ condensing units for factory proven performance in both heating and cooling modes. The 40RFQ series has a multi-position design that allows for vertical or horizontal installation without modification. Powerful fan systems allow easy adaptation to existing ductwork and supplemental field installed electric heaters, hot water coils, or steam coils ensure occupant comfort regardless of the weather outside.
