Space-saving convenience. Geothermal benefits.
The York® Affinity™ Y5SS is an outdoor split geothermal heat pump that’s perfect for homes with no interior storage space. Install the Y5SS outside and connect it to a remote interior air handler or existing fossil fuel furnace for top-notch comfort and savings in any application.
Versatility
The Y5SS is designed to be installed outdoors and is perfect for homes that are lacking space. By connecting to a SAH air handler, you can condition your home efficiently and comfortably. In colder climates, pair the split with a fossil fuel
furnace. The system automatically selects the most efficient heating method for maximum savings.
Cost effective
Geothermal heat pumps are so efficient that any added cost over traditional equipment is usually recovered in just a few years. And because they have a lifespan of 20-25 years, your investment will last longer and your return on investment will
grow year by year.
Efficiency
Geothermal heat pumps are much more efficient than traditional heating and cooling systems. The York® Affinity™ Y5SS is rated with an efficient 27.8 EER and 4.6 COP, which makes it a great option for your home.
Environmentally responsible
Since our units don’t burn expensive, polluting fossil fuels, they’re the most environmentally responsible options available today. Replacing a furnace and/or air conditioner with geothermal can minimize acid rain threats, air pollution, and
the greenhouse effect.
Safe
No combustion or flames are used to operate a geothermal heat pump, making it a safe choice for your home and family. Our systems merely move heat to and from the ground rather than by burning natural gas, propane, or oil.
Affordable peace of mind
York® Affinity™ Y5SS units come with warranties up to 10 years for parts and labor allowances. Other options are available, so see your York® Contractor for details.
SAH Air Handler
The SAH Air Handler has been engineered to work seamlessly with your York® split system and will provide years of efficient quiet comfort. It fits easily into any attic or crawlspace and comes standard with a variable speed ECM blower motor for maximum savings.
Dual Capacity Compressor
Y5SS units operate at two speeds rather than simply turning “on.” The low setting is more energy efficient and handles the heating and cooling needs of the house about 80% of the time. Units run in this mode for longer periods, which provides lower utility bills, quieter operation, better humidity control and more even temperatures throughout the home.
Aurora Controls
Aurora provides two-way communication between components, advanced operating logic and powerful troubleshooting capabilities. It constantly monitors and optimizes the operation of your unit and provides detailed status information when using our
communicating thermostats.
Split Configuration
Pair the outdoor split with a second floor air handler or an existing fossil fuel furnace for flexible installation options.
Coated Coaxial Heat Exchanger
Our proprietary coating protects against condensation at temperatures below 50ºF and extends the life of the coaxial heat exchanger.
IntelliStart
Lengthen the life of your system with the optional soft starter. This technology reduces the stress and sound associated with start-up, reduces light flicker and decreases start-up amperage by up to 70%.
Loop Pumps
The flow center is conveniently mounted within the cabinet, eliminating the need for any indoor loop piping. The loop pipes enter the unit through an opening in the bottom panel.
Cabinet
A professional grade powder-coat finish provides long-lasting beauty and protection. The unit is fully insulated with cleanable foil-backed insulation that ensures quiet operation.
R-410A
All York® geothermal units utilize R-410A refrigerant, which is friendly to the environment.
