 Designing
and delivering superior indoor weather equipment is
nothing new to Carrier. In fact, we've been
doing it since 1902 when Willis Carrier discovered
humidity control. Since that time, Carrier has been
the leader in developing new technologies and
products. That's why so many homeowners turn to
Carrier for their indoor weather solutions.
 For
year-round comfort and economical operation,
Carrier's 38YSA heat pump is an excellent choice.
Designed to improve your energy savings, the 38YSA
is Carrier's most efficient single-speed heat pump.
During the heating season, the 38YSA delivers up to
9.4 HSPF (Heating Seasonal Performance Factor),
which is 1.0 to 1.5 points higher than most other
high-efficiency, single-speed heat pumps. However,
the comfort and savings don't stop there. When the
summer months set in, you can look forward to cool
comfort and electrical savings of up to 15.5 SEER
(Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio), more than 5 full
SEER points higher than basic heat pumps.
Designed to
achieve higher efficiency ratings without
sacrificing comfort, you can count on the 38YSA for
quiet, consistent indoor weather season after
season. In fact, designed with Carrier's
Silencer System, the 38YSA is guaranteed to deliver
soothing, quiet operation. The uniquely designed top
reduces air turbulence in the unit to keep
operational noise to a minimum. The compressor
vibration isolator plate prevents noise from being
transferred from the base pan into your living space
and the efficient fan is designed to quietly deliver
energy-saving comfort. With all of these design
features, it would take up to 8 38YSA units, running
at the same time, to equal the noise of just one
standard heat pump.
The
efficiency level of your cooling bill affects
how much it will cost to keep your house cool
and comfortable during those hot summer days.
This chart can be used as an estimate of just
how much money you can save by investing in a
high efficiency system. If your old system was
rated at 8 SEER, then by purchasing a 15 SEER
system, you should be able to reduce the cost to
cool your home by almost 50%. This can add up to
a significant savings over the lifetime of the
product.
From solid,
time-tested components like the scroll compressor,
the energy-efficient fan and the WeatherArmor III™
protection system, each element of the 38YSA is
designed for long-lasting durability.  WeatherArmor
III is a three-part system that includes a
scratch-resistant cabinet, corrosion-resistant
screws and our enhanced coil guard. First, we build
a protective cabinet made of heavy gauge, galvanized
steel with baked-on powder paint. Then we assemble
the cabinet with ceramic-coated screws for corrosion
resistance and long-lasting durability. And finally,
we surround the outdoor coil with an enhanced
heavy-duty wire guard that protects your heat pump
from hail, high winds, sporting equipment and
potentially-damaging lawn equipment. By protecting
the components of your heat pump from external
damage, the WeatherArmor III protection system
ensures that you and your family enjoy custom made
indoor weather year after year.
 Exceptionally
quiet operation is achieved with Carrier's
Silencer System. Components of this system include:
- Silencer
System top which allows air to glide
smoothly through the system.
- Highly
efficient fan designed to quietly move
outdoor air.
- Deluxe
compressor sound hood absorbs compressor
noise.
- Compressor
vibration isolator plate prevents
vibrational noise from being transferred to the
base pan.
- The discharge
muffler assures quiet indoor comfort by
minimizing refrigerant pulsation through the
refrigerant lines.
Smooth, efficient
operation is delivered by the scroll compressor.
Efficient refrigerant compression is key to the heat
pump's performance.
 For
durable service, the WeatherArmor III cabinet
combines a heavy-duty steel cabinet, ceramic-coated
screws and our enhanced coil guard for the ultimate
in lasting toughness and coil protection.
Quality is
enhanced with the Carrier base pan. Designed to
properly drain water and debris from the unit, the
chance for corrosion is greatly reduced.
Reliable
performance is provided by the TimeGuard II™,
which prevents unnecessary wear and tear on the
compressor due to rapid restarts after shutdown.
System protection
occurs as the high and low pressure switches monitor
refrigerant pressure and shut down the unit before
permanent damage can occur to the compressor.
Added reliability
is provided as the accumulator protects the
compressor from damage if liquid refrigerant flows
back into the system.
Always look for
these symbols, the heat pump industry seals of
certified performance, efficiency and capacity.

eight Carrier 38YSA models operating at the same
time to equal the sound produced by one typical
heat pump.
