A.O. Smith’s Cyclone LV design is the latest advancement for the Cyclone family of condensing gas water heaters. A.O. Smith’s new modulating process adjusts the burner’s firing rate to a specific demand, which further increases energy efficiency and dramatically lowers operating costs. These units create a larger footprint and increase efficiency, allowing contractors to spec two Cyclone LV units for every four Cyclone Mxi.
The ClimateMaster family of packaged air-cooled rooftop units (RTUs) for light commercial HVAC applications are part of the manufacturer’s current market expansion strategy which includes several new integrated product lines including smart thermostats.
The Emerson Integrated Furnace Control provides control of the gas valve, ignitor, flame sensing circuit and controls the furnace blower in both air conditioning and heating modes as well as provides diagnostics. It is designed for Single Stage, HSI systems with ECMx blower motors.
ClimateMaster’s new packaged commercial RTUs range in size from 3 to 25 tons with the choice of gas heat, electric heat, or heat pump and multiple efficiency levels to meet specific project needs. All models include micro-channel coils and scroll compressors.
It is a Universal control which replaces 35 existing OEM, competitive and White-Rodgers models.
LG’s Multi V S is a compact, efficient, heat pump outdoor unit that supports up to nine individual indoor units with a two-pipe refrigeration circuit and allows individual control of room temperatures while offering overall increased flexibility and efficiency for commercial installations.
Additionally, the Cyclone LV features advanced electronic control with builtin diagnostics, iCOMM is a compatible network, ready for remote monitoring.

The key benefits of universal service controls are the reduced stocking inventory throughout the channel, and the time savings associated with fewer trips for contractors to chase down needed parts. >> climate.emerson.com
The Multi V S only requires single-phase power rather than the traditional threephase required for most VRF systems and can provide heat down to an outside temperature of -4F. The system requires little to no ductwork, resulting in smaller space requirements for piping, further increasing flexibility and cost savings. >> lghvac.com

RectorSeal’s Quick Connect is the new generation of refrigeration pipefitting designed for ductless mini-split and ducted unitary, single-family residential air conditioning systems. It’s the HVACR industry’s only major refrigerant fitting system that doesn’t require flaring, brazing or expensive crimping connection tools.
The new RIDGID StrutSlayr Strut Shear Head creates clean, square strut cuts free from chips and burrs with a single pull of the trigger — and in five seconds or less. Plus, it easily attaches to equipment many pros already have in their arsenal: the RIDGID RP 340 Press Tool.
The 2-in-1 benefit of Spectroline’s GLO SEAL Flourescent dye with Sealant seals and finds leaks –adding years to older, out-of-warranty AC&R systems. The concentrated dye ensures all leaks are found while the sealant repairs hidden micro-leaks and stops deterioration from the inside.
Viega’s new MegaPressG fittings for 2½-, 3- and 4-inch pipe join the current MegaPressG offerings of ½- to 2-inch fittings to create a comprehensive lineup of fittings approved for use in gas and fuel oil applications. It’s the only system on the market that allows secure press connections on gas lines 2½- to 4-inch in 16 seconds or less.
After cutting, deburring and marking for proper depth, the refrigerant line installation requires just a few seconds to push into the fitting until the depth marking appears in the sight glass. >> rectorseal.com
The only mobile dedicated strut tool on the market, StrutSlayr is field-ready and designed for efficient operation. It’s also easy to use with its built-in measuring guide and 13/16-inch, 1-5/8-inch or combo quick-change dies. It’s also TRISTAND mountable. >> ridgid.com
Compatible with all popular refrigerant types, treats up to 2.5 tons and meets ASHRAE 97 standard for chemical stability. Use GLO SEAL for 24/7 leak detection and HVAC preventative maintenance. >> spectroline.com/product/glo-seal/
Constructed of carbon steel with a corrosion-resistant zinc nickel coating and first-of-its-kind graphite separator ring in larger sizes, MegaPressG is suitable for use with ASTM Schedule 5 to Schedule 40 carbon steel pipe. >> viega.us
