The Lennox Aircoolair ducted split range of air-conditioning products is now available using R410A with capacities from 19 to 134 kW. This range comprises split and multi-split units for cooling-only or heat-pump operation. They are said to be 15% more efficient than R407C models. Eurovent data published at the beginning of 2007 rated them as the quietest units on the market. Free-cooling options are available, and units can be provided with or without exhaust or return fan.
