CONFORTO MHAH Electric Furnace | 5 Tons - 60000 BTU - R410A

1,582 CFM of airflow for large ducted homes

The largest air handler in the Conforto MHAH series

The MHAH160DACFC is the 5-ton (60,000 BTU) indoor unit of Conforto’s MHAH series. Installed in the basement or a mechanical room, it pushes heated or cooled air through the home’s ductwork. Conforto lists it in its brochure on central ducted heat pump systems, with a maximum airflow of 1,582 CFM.

This size is mainly for large homes, two-storey houses with a finished basement and buildings whose ducts serve many rooms. For a smaller house, a smaller size in the same series is often a better fit. We run the numbers with you rather than default to the biggest unit.

What to plan for in a Quebec home

The cabinet measures 21.02 x 24.49 x 52.99 in (width x depth x height). In many cottages in the region, the old unit sat in a corner of the basement near the electrical panel. That is often the right spot, as long as you leave the service clearance the manufacturer requires.

On the electrical side, it runs on 208/230 V, single phase, 60 Hz. On the refrigerant side, it connects with a 3/8 in liquid line and a 7/8 in suction line. If you plan to reuse existing lines, we check their size and condition before confirming the quote.

For sound, Conforto publishes three values: 51 dB at maximum speed, 45.5 dB at medium speed and 41.5 dB at minimum speed. The cabinet spends most of its time at the lower speeds, and the location you choose also affects what you hear upstairs.

Sold alone: what that means for you

The air handler is sold without an outdoor unit. It therefore has no certified efficiency rating on its own, and it does not qualify for the LogisVert grant: the grant follows the certified outdoor unit + air handler pair. If your project is to replace the whole system, we offer you the complete central heat pump and check that the pair qualifies before you sign.
