I have a chance to pick up a Trane 13 Seer Split AC with heat pump and air handler for my 900 sf garage. Its about 5 years old and has very low hours/use. I was wondering if I can install this in my garage and use the 220V dryer circuit (I use gas) and a dedicated 20amp 110V garage circuit to power this set-up.
Thanks!!!

What tonnage? If its 3ton and under a 220V 1 Ph 30 amp circuit should be ok for the outdoor unit. The air handler is probably a 220V 1Ph 15 amp so you would need another 220V circuit. Try to get some model #'s
Also, if it came from a commercial building make sure not 3ph unit.

Sorry, it is a 2-ton and it is 410A if it matters.
Thanks!

It'll work just fine.....a 2 ton unit should take a 30 amp 2 pole breaker, which should also be what your dryer breaker is.
Look on the unit nameplate, it'll say something like "MOCP" (maximum over current protection) or "OCD" (over current device) and state the amperage. Use a breaker that size to feed it.

I was hoping the air handler would just plug into a 110V 20amp outlet like mine in the attic do. I am hoping to go check it out Friday.

Focking POS HB website is locking up today:mad: :mad: :mad:
The airhandler might have a 240V heat strip for emergency heat, but it can be disconnected. The air handler itself should run on 120V. You'll prolly need a little professional help to figure this out.

I was going to find help if I pick it up. I forgot about the HP. I have gas in my house. Makes sense. Thanks.
