NEW RHEEM

[AIRCON8]

How do you like this nice and clean installation.




I like Rheem if you so far never had issues.
Can't wait to install one of their High Efficiency systems.

So Florida requires the unit screwed down to with stand a stiff breeze . Neat , is that a metal duct. Also i notice a trap outside is that the only one . JIM

[Bazooka Joe]

Rip off that dang yellow label on the pad, for a more aesthetic look...it’s driving me nuts nice clean install.

Only needs to be registered by someone..

Those required hold down straps kind of defeat the purpose of those new easy off panels. Is there adequate clearance on the sides facing the house?

That looks like a nice clean job, the line set cover is a nice touch too.

Disconnect wouldn't fly where it's located here. Has to be unobstructed, not behind the unit.

Put that low voltage in some liquid tight

[Gunslinger]

I would have turned the unit 90dergrees counterclockwise so us fat people can get inside it for services. nice other than that and the low voltage line.

Is the black base part of the unit ?
If so why not just tie off to that ?

Yes that's the code, its a linseed cover and yes the condensate line is only one

Code require 8 tie down in case of diversitech concrete pad and have to be screwed on the metal body with 2 screw each one

Yeah I noticed that but assumed the service came through the back and you ran pvc to the condenser. Silly me 😆

I agree with gunslinger. There ain't a lot of room for access by us fat people. It is a nice looking installation but as I get older I appreciate access room more and more.

Also can’t see the roofline, does the valley pour into the unit?

Yeah i get it but, unfortunately, there is not too much space in front of the condenser to keep it away from the back wall

Sorry guys.
i promise i will leave more room next installation

Did rheem do away with the old rectangular design, and also switch colors?
