IWAE S-Series Mini Split Heat Pump: Economical, Compact HVAC

Steven Sanders
Director of Digital Operations, Whole Home Expert

Key Points

  • The IWAE S-Series mini split heat pumps are affordably powerful options for single-zone heating and cooling that range in size from 12k BTU to 36k BTU.
  • S-Series mini splits work well in climate zones where temperatures range between 14 and 118 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • After professional installation, any individual space will enjoy quiet, energy-efficient climate control with IWAE’s S-Series mini splits.

Heating and cooling come at a high cost–we know. HVAC is routinely the most energy-intensive appliance in a home, and it is also often one of the most costly installations*. As a homeowner, you may want to cut costs wherever possible, but when it comes to HVAC, you can’t skimp on the unit just to save a few bucks. The best, economical HVAC systems will offer competitive features and ratings at a low price.

IWAE is now offering an affordable yet efficient unit like this: the IWAE S-Series Mini Split Heat Pump system. This single-zone heating and air system touts impressive efficiency ratings and features, all under a low price that will bring quality AC to your home.

*Installation of the IWAE S-Series requires a licensed HVAC technician. This series IS NOT compatible with homeowner installation. If you want a cost-effective, do-it-yourself mini split option, check out IWAE’s TruInverter mini split heat pump series.

Energy Efficient Systems in Multiple Sizes

Paying for the best features unfortunately comes with a much higher price tag, but ask yourself this before you splurge on a hyperheat system: do you live in a climate that necessitates those ratings? If you live in a mild to moderate climate zone, a system like the IWAE S-Series mini split will provide more than enough heating and cooling. S-Series mini split heat pumps maintain cooling performance in temperatures as high as 118 degrees Fahrenheit and heating performance even when the outside temperature drops down to 14 degrees Fahrenheit. This entry-level mini split heat pump also boasts impressive energy efficiency ratings, which you can view below.

The IWAE S-Series offers a diverse range of sizes, too. With an entry point at 12K BTU and a cap of 36K BTU, you’ll have a compact solution that can cool a small single bedroom or a spacious garage. Check out all of the sizes we offer below.

Low Price, Smart Functionality

The low price of the S-Series mini split heat pumps is a major benefit to you, of course. HVAC installs are becoming increasingly expensive, especially when you have to factor in the cost of bringing in an HVAC professional to perform the install. That’s why we want to help you save money wherever you can. Still, you don’t have to worry about a decline in quality with the S-Series. This lineup maintains many functions you’ll find in top-end mini-splits, such as smart functionality, smartphone and smart device compatibility, and multiple operation modes. The S-Series is compatible with the Smart Life app, which means misplacing the remote won’t stop you from maintaining a comfortable home temperature.

Pro Tip: Download the Smart Life app below, and check out the Smart Life manual for a rundown of its full capabilities.

The IWAE S-Series has all the functions you need out of a heating and cooling system. By maximizing convenience while lowering the overall price, this entry-level mini split system uses the following features to craft your ideal indoor ambiance with ease:

  • Heating: Allows your mini split to produce warm air
  • Cooling: Allows your mini split to produce cool air
  • Dry: Removes excess moisture from your room
  • Fan: Circulates air in the room without performing heating or cooling operations
  • Feel: Automatically selects heating, cooling, dry, or fan mode depending on the ambient room temperature
  • Timer: Set a timer to turn the unit on or off automatically

Quiet Operation, Inside and Outside

No one likes having to turn up the TV every time the AC kicks on. To combat this common problem, the IWAE S-Series mini split heat pumps were built to operate quietly and effectively, both inside and outside. At its quietest, the sound of an S-Series air handler is comparable to the ambient noise in a quiet library. Yes, it’s that quiet! At its loudest, the indoor sound is no louder than the ambient noise of a large office space or an electric toothbrush. The condenser was also built to prevent noise pollution and avoid disrupting your neighbors, meaning you can have uncompromising indoor comfort without the HOA breathing down your neck. With a dBA range between 52 and 59, it is quieter than the sound of moderate rainfall.

Space-Saving, Compact Design

The S-Series was also built to save precious indoor and outdoor space. The indoor air handler is smaller than standard models on the market, making it non-obtrusive. It also leaves you plenty of room for decoration, suiting both those with a maximalist interior design taste or minimal space to work with in the first place. Outdoor, too, the condenser is designed to take up the least amount of yard space possible, making it an appealing option for anyone with a strict  HOA controlling what’s allowed outside your home.
