Description
Product Summary
This First Co 1.5-ton through-the-wall split system pairs the 18WCX2BA200F WCX2 Series through-the-wall condensing unit with the 24HXS05X2UZP000AAF HXS Series horizontal uncased ceiling fan coil with a multi-speed ECM blower. The pairing is AHRI certified under reference number 216775744, rated at 16,700 BTU/h of cooling with 11.7 SEER2 and 9.6 EER2.
This is the classic layout for condos, apartments and hotel rooms where the condenser sits in an exterior wall sleeve and the indoor unit hangs above a ceiling or soffit. First Co sells its through-the-wall condensers for use with ECM indoor units, and this ECM fan coil is the certified ceiling match. Replacing both halves with a matched First Co system keeps the existing wall sleeve, ceiling opening and line set routing in play.
The uncased fan coil is built for installs inside framing or a soffit. For a finished ceiling installation, add the First Co 9EHX01 ceiling enclosure and an access panel from the options on this page. The 18WCX2BA200F uses the BA cabinet, about 32 in tall by 24 in wide, so measure your existing wall sleeve before ordering.
