The 5 Series represents some of our best features and efficiencies yet. The 500RO11 is a versatile outdoor split geothermal heat pump that's available in a range of sizes for convenient installation in any home. And since the unit sits outdoors, it's perfect for homes with limited utility space.
The 500RO11 Outdoor Split can be installed with either the 5 Series W5B Air Handler for forced air heating & cooling, or it can be installed in conjunction with an existing fossil fuel furnace for a dual fuel application.
The 5 Series W5B Air Handler is a perfect match for the 500RO11. It features an ECM blower motor for the ultimate in efficiency and electric backup heat for those rare instances where you need an extra boost of heating.
By installing the 500RO11 with the WaterFurnace A5D A-Coil (cased or uncased) and an existing fossil fuel furnace, the system can select the most efficient method of heating and switch between fossil fuel and geothermal. Perfect for colder climates, a dual fuel application will always keep you warm and cozy.
Since the compressor section is separate from the forced air component of your system, installation is flexible and convenient. For example, if you place the 500RO11 Outdoor Split just outside your home you can house the 5 Series W5B Air Handler in the attic or crawlspace to utilize your space effectively.
Geothermal heat pumps are not only the most comfortable way to heat and cool, they're also the most cost effective. They're versatile enough to excel in almost any home or any environment, and you'll find geothermal in more than 1 million households across Canada and all 50 U.S. states.
