The 5 Series 500A11
The 5 Series represents some of our best features and efficiencies yet. The 500A11 is a versatile geothermal heat pump that's available in single speed or dual capacity in a range of sizes and configurations for convenient installation in any home. No matter what climate you live in, your WaterFurnace system will deliver.
The 5 Series 500A11 provides forced air heating, air conditioning, and even generates a portion of your home's hot water — all from a single unit. You'll experience a level of comfort and savings that's far greater than any ordinary system without the risks of utilizing fossil fuels.
While traditional conditioning systems typically run at one speed, the 500A11 operates in two speeds — high and low for greater comfort and efficiency. It'll run most often in low speed to keep your home consistent and efficient but will switch over to high speed in instances where the home needs more conditioning.
Imagine a platform that can provide detailed feedback of your system in real-time and the tools to control it all from any web-enabled smart phone, tablet, or computer. That's Symphony. Receive alerts and service reminders via email, text message, and in-app notifications — for you and your contractor.

With an optional hot water assist, the 5 Series preheats your water and delivers it to your water heater. A sophisticated microprocessor controls and monitors heat pump conditions and determines when there is excess heat available to route to the hot water heater. This allows you to utilize heat in the most efficient way possible.
The IntelliZone2 gives you the power to precisely control temperatures in up to 4 different areas. The result is the ultimate in comfort and cost savings.

According to the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air Conditioning Engineers, geothermal units have an average equipment life of 25 years while the underground loop system has a rated material life of more than 100 years.
Through Symphony, Amazon Alexa integration allows owners to control a connected unit in their home with voice commands through a compatible smart device.
Aurora provides full two-way communication between components, advanced operating logic and robust troubleshooting capabilities. It adds support for energy monitoring, advanced hot water generation, Symphony, and the IntelliZone2 zoning system.
This optional soft starter reduces start-up amperage by up to 60% of normal draw to reduce noise, eliminate light flicker, and increase compressor life.
A variable speed ECM motor runs at only the speed needed for maximum efficiency and savings. Other choices include a standard PSC or high efficiency 5-Speed ECM blower motor for comfort and quiet operation.
The cabinet comes with a professional grade finish for long-lasting beauty and protection. The system is fully insulated for quiet operation with cleanable foil-backed insulation.
5 Series units feature aluminum air coils for durability and extended system life. Formicary corrosion is a thing of the past!
5 Series units come standard with a 10-year warranty on all parts and a 5-year labor allowance for covered repairs. An optional 10-year parts with 10-year labor allowance is also available.
