ELIOS e23 wall unit · previous generation
The e23 went down to −25 °C on R-410A, but none of its listings is on the NEEP registry.
Four sizes, 9,000 to 24,000, all 208-230 V: heating down to −25 °C per the brochure, up to 23.5 SEER, ECO mode under 15 Hz. Without a NEEP record, we show no certified cold-weather figure for it.
The e23 in four numbers
e23 brochure ENCH0419. SEER (older method), not comparable to SEER2.

Brochure e23, p. 2What it was, in figures
The four e23 units, with what the brochure publishes.
Certified cells stay empty: no registry holds its certificates.
What replaces it
e23 versus EMC and EBC: at equal size, what the R-454B units certify.
The ELIOS bulletin names no replacement for the e23; the EMC and EBC are the current wall units.

Refrigerant
R-410A today, R-454B tomorrow: what it changes for your e23.
Your e23: R-410A
It keeps running and is repaired with R-410A. ELIOS’s June 19, 2026 bulletin announces the phase-out of R-410A in 2026 for new equipment.
The replacement: R-454B
The EMC and EBC use R-454B, classed A2L. The two refrigerants are never mixed: a replacement is a complete system, after checking the existing lines.
LogisVert · Hydro-Québec
No LogisVert amount on this page, and here is why.
No e23 is on Hydro-Québec’s LogisVert list of Oct. 25, 2026: without ENERGY STAR certification on the registry, there is no amount.
Hydro-Québec does no phone or door-to-door solicitation for LogisVert. The amount shown is indicative: only Hydro-Québec confirms the aid granted.
Questions
Questions about the ELIOS e23 wall unit.
Is the e23 still sold?
It is an older R-410A series, absent from ELIOS’s June 2026 transition bulletin. Availability of a unit is confirmed at the time of the quotation.
Why no cold-weather figure for the e23?
Its AHRI number leads to no NEEP record. The brochure publishes its range (−25 °C), but no capacity measured in the cold.
Does my e23 qualify for LogisVert?
No e23 is on Hydro-Québec’s list of Oct. 25, 2026.
Can the e23’s SEER be compared with the EMC’s SEER2?
No: SEER2 comes from a stricter test method. A 23.5 SEER and a 26 SEER2 are not directly comparable.
What warranty did the e23 have?
The brochure publishes 1 year on parts and 5 years on the compressor, with optional 10-year coverage.
What replaces what?
For a room heated all winter we first propose the EMC; mostly for cooling, the EBC. We compare on site.
