York’s
Affinity™ series has added a new dimension to the HVAC category—style.
The company’s 3S and 8T series 13 SEER and 15 SEER heat pumps come
standard in Champagne with a choice of six other exterior colors,
including Terra Cotta, Jet Black, Stone, Bermuda, Chocolate, and Gun
Metal, to complement consumers’ homes and landscaping.
Working with design firm Fitch: Worldwide, York
designed its Affinity units to be “sleek and contemporary,” with a
functional but decorative metal coil guard, along with a polymer mesh
for the coil protection and to extend the life of the system.
According to York, the units’ steel cabinet is powder
painted to withstand a rugged 1,000-plus hr salt spray test, and the new
rustproof base pan is made out of an advanced composite material to
provide durability and noise reduction.
With a sleek, contemporary look, the
Affinity™ Series is the only system on the market that gives you a
choice of six exterior colors. Make a statement by adding style and
color. Pick the color that stylishly complements your home, your
landscaping, and your lifestyle. And when you consider the energy
efficiency and quiet operation of Affinity, you’ll see that York® offers
a full palette of style and value.
Designed for efficiency, reliability
and comfort
The innovative scroll compressor technology in the York Affinity series
is designed to offer energy-saving efficiency, reduced noise, and even
comfort levels.
Designed to outperform
Our 8T model is engineered with the even higher performing Ultratech™
compressor. The system features a two-stage design, enabling the
compressor to operate at 67% part-load capacity for better efficiency
and humidity control. Based on demand for high cooling needs, the system
is activated to full capacity. The Ultratech compressor is 4x quieter
and yields 60% greater energy efficiency, compared to a traditional
compressor. You’ll hardly notice the system is there as it gives you
years of dependable operation.
Raising comfort levels by reducing
sound
The Affinity is one of the quietest
series we’ve ever offered. Innovative design reduces the sound
dramatically:
High-efficiency scroll compressors
are the quietest type of compressor available.
Quiet compressors are isolated behind
an advanced composite material further reducing transmitted
compressor noise.
Advanced fan design for smoother air
flow, minimized air turbulence and reduced noise.
The QuietDrive™ System in our 8T
model features a combination of a swept-wing fan design, isolated
compressor compartment, composite base pan and two-stage heating and
cooling that provides quieter operation than conventional systems.
A composite base pan distributes and
dampens sound.
The Affinity is so quiet,
you may never notice it running.
* The Affinity can reach as low as 69 dB.
For every 3 decibels quieter, sound is cut 50%!
