Rheem has announced the expansion of its commercial product offering with a higher efficiency extension to the well-received Renaissance Line.
The packaged rooftop G/E and A/C lineup now includes 3-5-ton models with two stages of cooling and are purpose-built for commercial heating and cooling, delivering exceptional efficiency and value.
The new models strike an ideal balance between intuitive design and cutting-edge technologies, meeting the high-performance demands of modern businesses.
Engineered for seamless replacements, Rheem Renaissance RACCYC and RGECYC units boast industry-standard footprints, common piping and electrical connections, field-convertible airflow, and minimized weight for unmatched ease of installation.
