YORK 4-zone heat pumps: six outdoor units, from 30,000 to 42,000 BTU/h, for four rooms
For four rooms, six outdoor units: the W and the M at 30,000, 36,000 and 42,000 BTU/h, with 47 combinations of four heads per series. The 36,000 M and both 30,000 units stop at four.
At 4 heads, the number of combinations YORK publishes, unit by unit.
YORK 2020 catalogue, “Possible outdoor / indoor combinations” charts.
Every 4-head combination, unit by unit.
Pick the outdoor unit size: here are the head sizes YORK allows on it, for the W Series and the M Series.
Head sizes in thousands of BTU/h (9 = 9,000 BTU/h); after the = sign, the sum of nominal sizes in BTU/h. Output stays that of the outdoor unit: YORK asks that the outdoor unit be sized for the whole house’s load, and each head for its own room. We don’t install a combination that is not on YORK’s list.
Four heads at most: the 30,000 W and M, the 36,000 M.
