Count on Staying Cool and Comfortable
A smart, efficient design makes the EcoNet Enabled Rheem Classic Plus Series Two-Stage Air Conditioner one of your best options for staying cool inside. Each new unit includes a generous list of features that work together to bring you quiet, efficient and reliable indoor comfort.

The reliable and legendary Two-Stage Copeland Scroll™ UltraTech™ compressor technology makes the Classic Plus™ Series as efficient as it is durable. The optimized fan orifice also contributes to quieter operation, optimal airflow and better overall performance. Simply put, you get efficient comfort that lasts a very long time. A Single-Stage unit runs at one speed, but the Two-Stage RA17 modulates between two speeds � high and medium. It will operate on medium speed most of the time, providing more precise temperatures and lower humidity while also reducing energy use. The system only operates on high when necessary during peak, warm weather conditions. The compressor also has 70% fewer moving parts – which means you get a unit that’s more efficient and more reliable. The optimized fan orifice contributes to quieter operation, optimal airflow and better overall performance. Simply put, you get efficient comfort that lasts a very long time.

A quieter and more durable unit starts with our smart new composite base pan. The design helps eliminate corrosion and adds to quieter performance. Extensive UV testing was done to ensure that the base pan stays looking new for years to come. Our improved refrigerant tubing design also contributes to a quieter, more reliable operation. For added strength, curved louver panels and rugged corner posts on the exterior do an excellent job protecting the inside.

Curb appeal is not lost on our new Classic Plus™ Series. Our air conditioners look as good as they operate. Modern cabinet aesthetics allow your unit to put its best face
forward, and a powder coat paint system provides a lasting professional finish.

System setup is hassle-free with EcoNet, which automatically configures your system’s airflow for optimal performance. And with EcoNet’s 60 points of diagnostics, your independent Rheem Contractor receives extensive diagnostics information, taking the guesswork out of repairs.
