WHISPER QUIET
Not only are the systems energy efficient but they are quiet too. Ceiling Cassette operates
with sound levels starting as low as 37 dB(A).
MULTI FA SPEEDS

pan to a gravity condensate drain system. n most cases, the internal condensate lift mechanism
will avoid the need for an external condensate pump.
CO DE SATE SE TRY
The unit’s fail-safe mechanism recognizes when there is a high level in the condensate pan and
shuts off the system to prevent overflow.
I TELLIGE T PRE-HEATI G
Designer+ Systems guard against the annoying cool air blown into the room in heating
mode. The system constantly monitors the discharge air temperature. t will delay the
indoor fan until the indoor coil has warmed up to prevent blowing uncomfortable cool air
into the room.
CO TROLLERS
The Ceiling Cassette unit comes with a factory supplied Wireless Remote Controller and a
Wired Tether Controller.
WIRELESS REMOTE

I TELLIGE T DEFROST
The ntelligent Defrost function increases room comfort and saves energy by eliminating
unnecessary defrost cycles. n heating mode, the unit will monitor the outdoor coil for frost
buildup. Once frost buildup has been detected, the system will switch into a defrost mode to
remove the frost.
I FEEL MODE
The unit will sense room temperature at the remote controller instead of at the indoor unit.
t then adjusts airflow and temperature accordingly for the ultimate in personal comfort
control and energy savings. This function is only available with the wired Tether Controller.
SWI G LOUVER
The adjustable swing louvers can be controlled from the wireless controller. Vertical swing
louvers allows five different air discharge directions including Continuous Sweep. Maximize
comfort by adjusting the direction of airflow in the room by moving the louvers up or down.
FRESH AIR I TAKE
The
Ceiling Cassette has a ventilation air knockout that allows a 4-inch flex duct connection and
a field-supplied duct booster fan. The maximum fresh air allowed is 20% of the unit's high-speed
fan airflow rating.
POWER FAILURE MODE
Power interruptions are no problem for the Designer+ system. User selections and system
parameters are stored in non-volatile memory. These parameters are retained during a power
failure. When
power is returned, the Ceiling Cassette system will automatically return to the last operating
mode.
TURBO MODE
Use Turbo Mode for situations where you wish to achieve the desired room temperature in
the shortest possible time. This mode runs the unit at ultra high speeds for quickest results.
CLOCK
The wireless remote controller has a built-in clock feature. The remote will display the time

temperature within this band.
SLEEP MODE
The unit will automatically adjust room temperature during your sleep time. This slight change
in temperature will not affect your comfort level due to the natural effects that sleeping has on
the body, but it will save on energy consumption and will lower electric bills.
X-FA MODE
When operating in humid areas, the X-fan or Dry Coil function allows the indoor fan to run for
a pre-determined amount of time after the unit is turned off (cooling or dry modes) to ensure
that additional moisture is removed from coil.
