Bosch Thermotechnology, a global source of high-quality heating, cooling, and hot water systems announced the newest and most advanced addition to its Inverter Ducted Split (IDS) family, IDS Premium Connected.
This Air Source Heat Pump system provides maximum comfort with minimum energy usage and adds an interactive, connected platform for contractors and homeowners.
Heat pumps
“Heat pumps are becoming one of the most popular options for efficient heating and cooling homes around the country,” says Katelyn Woodling, Manager of Product Management for Bosch Thermotechnology North America, adding “Bosch Thermotechnology’s IDS Premium Connected brings the Internet of Things to HVAC in new and important ways.”
Remote monitoring
Contractors and homeowners can remotely monitor the system and data through the Bosch EasyAir app"
Katelyn Woodling continues, “Contractors and homeowners can remotely monitor the system and data through the Bosch EasyAir app, even without a smart thermostat. This adds new layers of insight and convenience to a lineup that is among the very quietest, and most energy-efficient systems available on the market currently.”
Wireless connection
IDS Premium Connected features wireless connectivity to the Bosch EasyAir App, allowing contractors to easily access the information they need to conduct on-site installation, troubleshooting, and warranty registration.
Homeowners can use the Bosch EasyAir app to monitor their energy usage and receive critical alerts, as well as contact their contractors for maintenance and repairs.
Energy efficient
The IDS Premium Connected provides a premium 20-plus SEER energy efficiency, whisper-quiet sound levels as low as 56 dBA, and easy installation in a small, compact physical footprint.
The fully modulating inverter compressor offers 36 percent to 130 percent capacity with modulation in 1 percent increments. In practice, this capability allows the IDS Premium Connected to precisely match the heating and cooling load while achieving maximum efficiency.
Humidity control, corrosion resistance
This system also has a heating seasonal performance rating of 10.5 and can provide heating even when outdoor temperatures drop as low as -4° F (-20°C).
The accompanying air handler includes a two-stage x13 electronically commutated motor blower for enhanced humidity control and an all-aluminum coil for superior corrosion resistance. The IDS Premium connected outdoor unit is available in 36k BTU and 60k BTU capacity.
