 Carrier
has always provided leadership and innovation to the indoor
weather industry. In response to global concern over ozone
depletion, Carrier again steps to the forefront with the first
non-ozone depleting heat pump - the 38YZA. This remarkable product
provides all of the heating and cooling you've come to expect from
Carrier, along with excellent energy efficiency ratings and
reliability you can depend on.
 By making the
switch to Puron now, you will be doing your part to help minimize
the effects of ozone depletion while enjoying the comfort,
performance and long-term reliability of Carrier indoor weather.
The 38YZA heat pump easily surpasses the efficiency of a standard,
older heat pump you may be replacing. And, when compared to newer
models that use Freon®-22, the 38YZA is a sound
investment because you'll avoid the potentially high costs
involved in maintaining an indoor comfort system that uses the
older refrigerant.
Carrier products have always delivered excellent
reliability, and these new products with Puron®
refrigerant improve on that record.  In
fact, Carrier was the first company to offer a long-term
replacement for Freon®-22 as far back as 1996. That
experience, coupled with our existing knowledge of indoor weather
technology, has enabled us to develop one of the most reliable,
energy efficient heat pump lines available. Environmentally sound,
economically sound and extremely reliable, Carrier's 38YZA heat
pump with Puron delivers the year-round comfort you and your
family expect from the industry leader.
No matter how the technology changes, Carrier's commitment
to providing you with the most comfortable indoor weather stays
the same. One aspect of comfort that other manufacturers often
overlook is quiet operation. With Carrier, that's a top priority
because we understand that when it's time to relax with the
family, the last thing you want to hear is a noisy heat pump.
Featuring Carrier's exclusive Silencer System, the 38YZA is one of
the quietest heat pumps currently available.

The 38YZA includes our Silencer System top, an energy-efficient
fan and fan motor, a heavy-duty compressor shell with sound hood,
and a compressor vibration isolator plate. The Silencer System
top is designed to allow smooth, easy airflow into and out of the
outdoor unit to minimize sound and air turbulence. This new top
design also allows us to utilize a low-speed fan motor with
large-diameter fan blades. These two features provide quieter,
more efficient operation than a high-speed model. The compressor
vibration isolator plate is made of a special vibration-absorbing
material surrounded by two metal plates. It's mounted underneath
the compressor and prevents vibrational noise from escaping. The
sound hood is designed of sound-absorbing materials which blanket
the compressor and further enhance the quiet comfort of the 38YZA.
These components work together to reduce noise from air turbulence
and compressor operation, making the 38YZA both quiet and
unobtrusive.
 In
addition to delivering quiet comfort, the Silencer System enhances
the operational efficiency of the 38YZA. Due to the improved
airflow throughout the outdoor coil, the heat pump system doesn't
have to work as hard as other, more turbulent systems. As a
result, the 38YZA delivers quiet indoor comfort with improved
energy efficiency. This design feature also allows us to use a
smaller outdoor coil which takes up less space in your yard.
Designed to deliver the comfort, efficiency and reliability
of tomorrow, Carrier's 38YZA heat pump is the perfect choice for
homeowners today. On the outside, our WeatherArmor™ III
system combines a heavy, galvanized steel cabinet, a heavy-duty
wire grid and ceramic-coated screws to protect your heat pump
system from rust, corrosion and other potentially damaging outdoor
elements. Inside the unit, the rugged, durable components are made
of copper, brass and aluminum for long-lasting comfort and energy
savings.
From the first phases of development to the finished
product, Carrier's extensive testing ensures that each 38YZA heat
pump meets our strict requirements for performance and durability.
Our reliability checks begin with design and assembly-line
testing. Then, we test the 38YZA at 125°. That's a full 10°
higher than the industry standard requirements. Finally, each
product is run-tested by a bank of computers which check the vital
functions to ensure that your new heat pump will meet your comfort
demands.
By combining our knowledge of indoor weather technology with
new innovations and designs, Carrier remains at the forefront of
the indoor weather industry. According to the Clean Air Act of
1990, Freon®-22* and other harmful refrigerants will
be phased out of use and homeowners will soon have to turn to
Puron® refrigerant to maintain their indoor comfort.
That's why Carrier has been designing and testing heating and
cooling equipment that uses Puron, the refrigerant approved by the
EPA to replace Freon®-22. In fact, Carrier has been
offering Puron-based systems like the 38YZA since 1996, developing
a complete line of products using the world's first, long-term
solution to ozone depletion. Environmentally sound, economically
sound and extremely reliable, Carrier's 38YZA heat pump with Puron
refrigerant provides the comfort you expect from an industry
leader like Carrier.
