The product line features double-isolated compressor mounting and an ECM variable speed fan motor, foil-backed air handler insulation, MERV11 pleated 2-inch filters and dehumidification mode.

Pumps are available in 2 to 6 tons with efficiencies up to 31.5 EER and 5.1 COP. They are rated for water loop heat pump, ground loop heat pump and ground water heat pump in upflow, downflow, horizontal and split system configurations.

JJM Boiler Works introduces a new line of condensate-neutralizing tubes for commercial boilers and warm air furnaces. The tubes are designed to raise the pH level of discharged condensate to a neutral level of 6.5 to 7.0 pH to prevent damaging sewer or septic systems and local outdoor vegetation.

The tubes come in five different sizes and configurations for heating systems ranging from 50,000 Btu to 3 million Btu. Each rechargeable tube comes with galvanized strut clamps and hardware required for installation.
