Cooper&Hunter Hyper Heat Multi-Zone Outdoor — 48,000 BTU, R454B — CH-RVHP48M-230VO
Overview
Cooper&Hunter’s 48K BTU Hyper Heat Multi-Zone outdoor unit is built for large residential and light commercial applications that need flexible, room-by-room control. It supports up to six zones with independent temperature settings and includes Hyper Heating technology for reliable performance in extreme cold, with heating operation rated down to −22 °F. Advanced inverter technology modulates compressor speed to match connected-zone demand, delivering strong efficiency (up to 23 SEER2) and consistent comfort. Using R454B refrigerant (lower GWP vs. many conventional options), it supports modern, eco-conscious system designs.
