Heatcraft Refrigeration Products was recognized for excellence in product design in the sixth annual Dealer Design Awards Program sponsored by The Air Conditioning Heating & Refrigeration News magazine. An independent panel of 30 contractors acted as judges in the contest that had 114 entries from different industry brands. The company’s 6 HP air-cooled condensing unit with HyperCore microchannel coil technology was the Silver Award winner in the Refrigeration category. The ACHR News is the leading trade magazine in the heating, ventilating, air conditioning, and refrigeration industries.

“These awards give us a unique opportunity to recognize the outstanding research and development efforts that go into many of the products serving the HVACR industry and the awards issue gives our readers an opportunity to read about innovative installation and service solutions,” says News publisher John Conrad.

We’re honored that The ACHR News has chosen this high-performing condensing unit to receive the coveted Dealer Design Award. The product line is leading the industry by offering the new HyperCore microchannel coil technology,” says Celena Evans, group manager of Product Management for Heatcraft Refrigeration.

To further support our customers’ drive for affordable energy saving solutions, we are also offering variable speed EC (VSEC) motors with a proprietary Orbus controller, as well as a factory-installed Smart Defrost Kit (SDK) as optional features on the •••-6 HP condensing units.”
