AAON Launches Alpha Class, Leading the Charge for Sustainable HVAC Solutions

Responding to the building industry’s growing demand for sustainable solutions, AAON, Inc., a leading provider of quality, flexible HVAC solutions, proudly introduces AAON Alpha Class, a breakthrough range of high-performance air-source heat pumps.

Setting the standard for commercial and industrial air-source heat pump performance, AAON Alpha Class accelerates the adoption of cleaner, more efficient technologies, propelling the decarbonization movement forward.

AAON Alpha Class air-source heat pumps range in size from two to 70 tons and provide exceptional versatility and industry-leading features to fulfill increasing environmental and regulatory requirements. The Company’s premium HVAC solution is highly flexible and tailored for a variety of situations, with variable speed compressor technology, all-electric or dual-fuel options, Dedicated Outdoor Air System (DOAS) capability, energy recovery, and low global warming potential refrigerant. AAON Alpha Class is designed for greater efficiency and reduced emissions, using the same double-wall rigid polyurethane foam-injected panel construction that AAON is recognized for, retaining valuable heating and cooling energy within the building.

“We have a technology that we’ve put together that we can call the Alpha Class because it is an industry leader. It is a dominant factor — an Alpha — in the industry when it comes to heat pump performance. There is no real competitor for the Alpha Class,” Stephen Wakefield, Chief Operating Officer of AAON, Inc explained.

AAON Alpha Class air-source heat pumps usher in a new era of excellence by working dependably at lower ambient temperatures than traditional heat pumps and with higher heating capacity across a wide variety of operating situations. The Company’s air-source heat pumps function effectively in climates where other heat pumps fail, saving energy expenditures all year. AAON Alpha Class performance has been tested and verified down to an ambient temperature of zero degrees Fahrenheit, and AAON is now working to improve the equipment’s ability to perform at sub-zero temperatures in the near future. With first-of-its-kind omni-climate performance, the AAON Alpha Class provides the innovation our future requires.
