  The EnergyMiser™ Hybrid Heating system features a 96% AFUE Two-Stage, Variable-Speed Gas Furnace packaged along with our most efficient 18 Seer EnergyMiser™ Heat Pump. The EnergyMiser™ Hybrid system takes advantage of both heating technologies and automatically switches to the one most efficient for the temperature. When it is chilly, the system operates off electricity, providing the heat pump’s steady, mellow heat. But when it turns cold, the hybrid system automatically switches to the gas furnace and its warmer, toasty air. The result is the ultimate in comfort. Even better, hybrid systems cost less to operate, because they use the most efficient technology needed to keep your home warm.

Part 1:

The EnergyMiser 96% AFUE Two-Stage, Variable-Speed Gas Furnace features our patented, heavy-duty, Heat-Miser™ stainless-steel heat exchanger and recuperative coil. The next-generation SecureStart™ silicon nitride hot surface The EnergyMiser Heat Exchanger ignition system increases reliability. These furnaces are completely assembled at our factory and run-tested for heating or combination heating/cooling applications. With a heavy-gauge, reinforced, wrap-around insulated steel cabinet and durable baked enamel finish, these units can be installed in a utility room, closet, alcove, basement or attic.

Future energy standards will likely be in place for furnaces in the AFUE, which is how efficiency is measured for furnaces. The current standard for furnaces is 80% AFUE, but will likely go to 90% AFUE in the near future. Brothers Air and Heat has the answer today with the EnergyMiser™ Hybrid system. At the heart of the system is our  EnergyMiser™ 9600 furnace that has an AFUE of 96%, which means 96 cents of every dollar of gas it consumes, is converted to useful heat. Compare that to most furnaces installed today at 80% or 80 cents for every dollar of gas. The 9600 furnace will meet any future energy standard today. This is why we say Meeting Tomorrows Energy Standards Today!
   Comfort also comes standard on the 9600 with its furnace within a furnace. On mild days it runs on low fire saving you gas and eliminating the hot burst of air that happens with most furnaces that only have one speed. And on really cold nights of 10 degrees which we have a few times a year, the 9600 will run on high fire keeping your home warm and toasty.
   The energy savings and comfort alone is enough for most people to buy the EnergyMiser™ brand, but for those looking for another reason we offer two. The first is quality of construction; each furnace in the EnergyMiser™ family has the Heat-Miser™ stainless steel heat exchanger. This is the heart of the furnace and the part that separates the harmful flue gases from the air that is in your house.
   The stainless steel prevents the heat exchanger from rusting out like we see in so many of our competitor's furnaces, which are made of aluminized steel. The stainless doesn’t rust out and crack like the aluminized steel does. Each furnace also has the Securestart™ silicone nitride igniter. The igniter is the part that replaces the pilot light. The Securestart™ igniter is so tough that we pressed it through a piece of wood and it still works.
   Reason two is warranty. Because each EnergyMiser™ product is constructed with the best material and parts, we offer the best warranty you can find anywhere. Each product is backed with a ten year no excuse warranty. If any product ever fails in the first ten years of operation we will repair it free of charge parts and labor. If the Heat-Miser™ heat exchanger fails in the first ten years, we will replace the unit at no charge, labor included. After the first ten years each Heat-Miser™ heat exchanger has an original homeowner lifetime warranty. When we say this is the last heating and cooling system you will ever buy we mean it!

Part 2

The EnergyMiser 18 Seer Heat Pump uses the environmentally friendly refrigerant R-410A and features energy efficiencies and operating sound levels that are among the best in the heating and cooling industry. R-410A is chlorine-free to help prevent damage to the ozone layer. The 1800HP features a new technology—the 2-stage, high-efficiency Comfort-Miser™ scroll compressor—that better matches the cooling requirements of the conditioned space, providing improved temperature and humidity control. The 1800HP is designed for the consumer who desires the ultimate in comfort, quiet and environmentally friendly performance.
 

  • Uses R-410A environmentally friendly refrigerant

  • 2-stage, high-efficiency Comfort-Miser™ scroll compressor

  • Refrigerant system protected by high- and low-pressure switches Anti-short cycle protection

  • High-density foam compressor sound blanket

  • 2-speed fan motor and heavy-gauge, coated wire condenser fan grille result in low fan operating sound

  • Tightly spaced, heavy-gauge, coated wire grille protects the coil from inadvertent damage, vandalism and inclement weather, while allowing excellent access for cleaning

  • Factory-installed, bi-flow liquid line filter drier keeps moisture and dirt out of the system for a long and reliable system life

  • Service valves with sweat connections and gauge ports provide years of reliable, leak-free use

  • Copper tube/enhanced aluminum fin coil

  • Durable, long-lasting painted steel cabinet with stainless steel screws provides superior UV protection

  • UL and CUL listed

  • Performance ratings certified in accordance with the ARI Unitary Air Conditioning certification program

   
   ComfortMiser Scroll™ compressors are guaranteed to last a lifetime because they function with fewer moving parts, and no discharge or intake valves. The scroll design allows several pockets of gas to be compressed simultaneously providing a smooth, nearly continuous compression cycle. This enables the ComfortMiser Scroll™ compressor to operate more smoothly and quietly, with less vibration. Plus it uses environment friendly R410a refrigerant.
   Unlike piston compressors, which generally have 9 parts for every cylinder, ComfortMiser Scroll™ compressors employ only two identical, concentric scrolls, one inserted within the other. One scroll remains stationary as the other orbits around it. This movement draws gas into the compression chamber and moves it through successively smaller "pockets" formed by the scroll’s rotation, until it reaches maximum pressure at the center of the chamber. There, it’s released through a discharge port in the fixed scroll. During each orbit, several pockets are compressed simultaneously, so operation is virtually continuous.

  

With the ComfortMiser™ Scroll compressor, homeowners now have a better, more efficient way to power their cooling system. Raising their level of comfort, while lowering their HVAC energy bills. With the unique 67% part-load capacity step, systems with the ComfortMiser maintain precise temperature levels and lower the relative humidity. This eliminates uneven cooling peaks and valleys and allows for steady cooling comfort.

What is R410a Refrigerant? R-410a is an environmentally friendly, next-generation refrigerant that is used in the EnergyMiser™ brand air conditioners and heat pumps. Many refrigerants developed before R-410a contain chlorine, which is harmful to the ozone layer. R-410a is chlorine-free and therefore better for the environment. In fact, the Clean Air Act requires that as of 2010, all new air conditioners in the US must use R-410a. EnergyMiser™ meets tomorrow’s energy standards today!

Part 3:

The EnergyMiser Hybrid System Thermostat reads the outside & inside temperature and switches the system to either the 9600 gas furnace, or the 18 Seer Heat Pump, as needed, automatically.
