UNIT FEATURES & BENEFITS—RQNM/RQPM- SERIES

The RQNM & RQPM series of Package Heat Pumps are designed
to be the most efficient, quickest to install, easiest to service, and
most reliable units in the industry - while still maintaining an affordable price. This platform provides you with a full line of nominal
capacities from 2 through 5 tons. RQNM models are 13SEER and
RQPM models are 14 SEER, each ARI-certified.

Starting at the bottom, the base rails ( 1 ) allow for separation
between the unit base and the ground level, protecting the base
from ground moisture and providing air circulation around the unit.
Constructed from sturdy 18-gauge G-90 sheet metal, the base
rails also allow for easier maneuverability during installation.

As with allunits offered by Rheem, we started our design process
with input from the customer. From fan grille to the base rails,
Rheem has combined 30 years worth of package unit design
experience with input from Dealers to meet the latest application
requirements.

While other manufacturers have chosen to use pre-painted steelin their equipment, which exposes raw edges and invites rust and
sharp edges, Rheem package equipment uses a powder-coat
paint system, rated at 1000 hour salt spray per ASTM B117. The
powder-coat process also greatly diminishes and dulls sharp
edges, reducing the occurrence of cuts and torn clothes.
