Description
The Comfort-Aire MCT036AGC30C0PS is an MC Compact Series single-stage water-source heat pump built for commercial environments where quiet operation, solid efficiency, and predictable service access are required. It’s commonly selected for larger zones within office buildings, retail footprints, medical facilities, and institutional spaces that run on a water-loop system and need reliable heating and cooling at the zone level.
This MC Compact Series platform exceeds ASHRAE 90.1 efficiency standards and uses R-454B low-GWP refrigerant. The design includes a coaxial heat exchanger and TXV metering device to support stable performance under typical water-loop temperature conditions and load changes.
Operationally, the system is designed to simplify commissioning and service. Microprocessor controls with emergency shutdown, performance monitoring through Unit Performance Sentinel, and multiple standard safety features support uptime. CXM2 communicating controls support real-time operating condition visibility and captured fault conditions, and the external connecting port reduces service tool setup time.
