ALL OF THE ADVANTAGES OF DUCTLESS SPLIT
SYSTEMS AND FRIEDRICH QUALITY
Zero duct loss
According to the DOE, ducted
systems lose an average of 25-40% in
performance due to leaks, cracks or
disconnections in ductwork.
No ductwork means that ductless systems do not
experience duct loss, saving energy and money.
No dirty air ducts*
With a ductless system, there’s no need to clean
dirty air ducts that can harbor dust,
germs and allergens that are eventually
blown into your home or office.
Zone cooling flexibility
Independently condition up to four separate zones
using only a single outdoor unit. Cool or
heat only the zones that are in use. Set
individual comfort levels for each zone.
Optimized airflow
4-way air swing quickly disperses cool or warm air
to all four corners of the room to provide comfort
throughout.
The 'Surge Air' feature moves air at an
even higher speed for rapid cooling.
Friedrich Precision Inverter® delivers
exceptional energy efficiency and smooth
performance
Precision Inverter technology varies the
compressor, the outdoor and the indoor fan speeds,
eliminating constant compressor start-ups/shut-
downs that traditional systems require to maintain
the set temperature.
Each system can adjust capacity and cooling output
to provide only the amount of cooling needed at a
given time. The result is optimal comfort with low
energy costs.
THE ADVANTAGES OF INVERTER
DUCTLESS SPLIT SYSTEMS
TRADITIONAL SYSTEM INVERTER SYSTEM
At initial start up, a xed capacity
system slowly reaches the set
temperature.
Complete shutdown once set
temperature is achieved.
Temperature within the space
rises until 2nd system start up.
System works at full capacity to
again reach set temperature.
System cycles on and off
continually to maintain the set
temperature.
At initial start up, utilizes
variable capacity to
quickly reach the set
temperature.
Reduces capacity as set
temperature is achieved.
Variable capacity
maintains set
temperature keeping
space comfortable
with reduced energy
consumption.
Available built-in Wi-Fi
Easily adjust settings and power units off and on
with your smartphone. The FriedrichGo™ app is
easy to set up and use. Compatible with
Amazon Alexa or Google Home.
Wi-Fi available on Premier and Pro wall-
mounted models, and on Pro ceiling
cassette models.
Soft start technology
Friedrich soft start technology starts the
compressor with significantly reduced amperage at
start up, saving energy versus compressors utilizing
locked rotor amperage (LRA).

A UNIQUE DESIGN MAKES FRIEDRICH—
THE EASIEST DUCTLESS TO
INSTALL, CLEAN & SERVICE
EXCLUSIVELY ON
FLOATING AIR PRO AND
PREMIER SERIES
The Problem
On typical ductless indoor units,
accessing the indoor coils is
extremely difficult and takes so much
time that a thorough cleaning may be
next to impossible.
Access to piping, wire terminal
blocks, the fan and fan components is
also a challenge.
The Solution:
Friedrich FastPro was designed with
the HVAC technician in mind. In a few
easy steps that can be performed
in minutes, the entire blower wheel
assembly can be removed for easier,
faster cleaning and service.
Also, you'll have easy access to the
terminal blocks. FastPro will save you
hours on the job site.
