Description
Friedrich Breeze Select WFPU17Y603D 5 Ton Inverter Heat Pump Condenser
The Friedrich WFPU17Y603D is the outdoor half of the Breeze Select 5 ton split system. It is a side-discharge heat pump with Friedrich's Precision Inverter compressor, which modulates between 14,000-54,000 BTU/h to match the load instead of running full-on and shutting off. That gives steadier temperatures, better humidity control and quieter operation than a single-stage condenser.
The cabinet is compact, roughly 40% smaller in footprint than a traditional top-discharge condenser, so it suits side yards, rooftops, balconies and replacement jobs where pad space is tight. It heats down to -22°F in heat pump mode, cools in outdoor temperatures as low as 5°F and has a built-in base pan heater.
Rated performance (17 SEER2, 8.8 EER2, 8.5 HSPF2, AHRI 216776407) applies when it is paired with the matched Friedrich WFH60Y223D air handler. Friedrich designs the Breeze line for universal compatibility with existing air handlers and gas furnaces, but efficiency and rebate eligibility may be lower with a non-Friedrich indoor unit.

Installation notes
This listing is the outdoor unit only. The air handler, line set, 6-conductor 18 AWG communication cable (heavier gauge on long runs), disconnect, pad and installation materials are sold separately. R-454B is an A2L refrigerant, so installation and service require a licensed HVAC technician with A2L-rated tools.
