Up-Front Air Filters

Up-Front Air Filters

Two up-front filters, easy to remove and reinstall, may be cleaned without removing the room front.

Clean by brushing, vacuuming, or back flushing under faucet or shower head.

Easy Clean Air Discharge Area

2500 and 3500 series units have an out-of-sight vertical protective screen over the indoor fan. This allows easy cleaning of air discharge area by simply removing room front and wiping clean.

There is no screen directly below discharge louver to trap unsightly dirt and debris where it may be seen by room occupants.

Concealed Manual Vent Control

Vent can allow up to 70 CFM of outside air to enter the room (40 CFM on 7100 BTUH unit; 65 CFM on 9000 BTUH unit; 70 CFM on 11700 BTUH and 14600 BTUH units). Greater amounts of air can be introduced if the room has an exhaust fan.

An open vent door brings unconditioned outdoor air into the room, increasing heating and cooling costs.

Positive vent door closure prevents accidental opening and unwanted air infiltration.

Shipping hardware may be left on the door for a permanent closure.

Corrosion Protection (Optional)

2500 and 3500 series units may be ordered with special protection to better withstand the damage by salt air and salt water in seacoast areas.

Corrosion protected chassis is standard on Dry Air 25 models.

Heat Pump units with ICR are not available with corrosion protection and should not be installed in seacoast or corrosive environment.

Units installed in corrosive areas should be examined and cleaned more frequently than normal installations.

Internal Condensate Removal (ICR)

See page 34 for a discussion of the Internal Condensate Removal system available on the 3500 and 5500 series heat pumps.

Enhanced Dehumidification

Moisture removal is an important function of an air conditioner. People are more comfortable at higher temperatures when the humidity level is relatively low.

Air conditioners operate with less energy consumption when the room temperatures are set higher.

The GE Zoneline 2500 series with the Dry Air 25 heat pipe application removes 25% more moisture than our base 2500 series unit - which is already an industry leader among the major brands of Packaged Terminal Units.

The GE Zoneline Dry Air 25 chassis is the only unit available with the application of the patented Dinh Dehumidifer Heat Pipe under license from Heat Pipe Technology, Inc.

Customers who are using the Dry Air 25 report a fresher smelling room as a result of the lower humidity levels - as well as lower operating costs.

Locking Door Kit

RAK8022 - A door with a lock, that replaces the standard control cover door to prevent unauthorized changing of control setting, is offered as

an accessory.
