* Outdoor section/indoor section combination tested in accordance with DOE test procedure for electric air conditioners.
† In most cases, only 1 method should be used to achieve TDR function. Using more than 1 method in a system may cause degradation in performance. Use either the

accessory Time-Delay Relay KAATD0101TDR or a furnace equipped with TDR. All Bryant furnaces are equipped with TDR except for the 394HAD.

‡ Based on computer simulation. TXV must be R-410A compatible and hard shutoff type.

NOTES: 1. Ratings are net values reflecting the effects of circulating fan heat. Supplemental electric heat is not included.

2. Determine actual CFM values obtainable for your system by referring to fan performance data in fan coil or furnace coil literature.

3. Do not apply with capillary tube coils as performance and reliability are significantly affected.
