The Many Benefits of The Florida Comfort System

Humidity Control
High humidity can make you miserable. But Trane has the answer with the Florida Comfort System. It can remove up to 15 gallons of water a day from the average home. That's up to four times more than a conventional system.

The ComfortR™ Difference
The Florida Comfort System comes equipped with the exclusive Trane Variable Speed Air Handler. It has a patented computerized controller called ComfortR™. Because of this feature, no other variable speed unit can achieve Trane's humidity control capacity.

Trane Durability
A survey of thousands of homeowners by a leading consumer publication revealed that Trane units needed fewer repairs than any other brand. Which proves again why we say:  "It's Hard To Stop A Trane."

Energy Efficiency
The Florida Comfort System not only gives you incomparable comfort, it also saves you money. In fact, the combination of the XL 1400 and the Variable Speed Air Handler may save you up to 60% on current heating and cooling bills.

Quiet Operation
The Florida Comfort System is quieter. That's because it generally runs at much lower speeds. So you don't hear that "thunk" when it cycles.

Cleaner Air
Slower operating, variable speeds means more airborne pollutants have time to cling to and be trapped by the air filter. This allows cleaner air to flow into your home.

In three cooling seasons a Trane Variable Speed Air Handler can remove enough moisture from your indoor air to fill a swimming pool.

The Florida Comfort System
In Florida, air conditioners have a full-time job. Cooling is typically needed year-round, and units also need to extract moisture from a high humidity environment. Plus, proven reliability and durability are essential.

With these criteria in mind, Trane offers the exclusive Florida Comfort System - a system ideally suited to this area. The Florida Comfort System combines two crucial elements:  the exclusive Trane Variable Speed Air Handler and the super efficient XL outdoor unit.

The Heart of the System
Take a peek inside your air handler and you'll find the electric motor that's responsible for running the indoor blower. Most systems are standard, and that means the motor runs at only one speed and is either on or off. Anytime the blower is on it's running at full capacity, using the maximum amount of energy.

Trane's variable speed motor, however, is smarter than the average motor. It automatically varies its speed, while meeting your home's heating and cooling requirements.

That's the beauty of the Florida Comfort System. Because its Variable Speed Air Handler, matched with the Trane XL Unit, gives you a level of comfort you've never before experienced and saves you money in the process.

Four Times Greater Humidity Removal
You know how miserable humidity can make you. Well, with a variable speed air handler you can reduce the humidity in your home, giving you and your family a more comfortable environment.

In fact, you'd probably be amazed to find out just how much moisture is in your home. Consider this:  a Trane Variable Speed Air Handler can remove up to 15 gallons of water a day from the average house. That's up to four times the amount of moisture that a conventional air handler removes.

The Sound of Silence
And here's something else about a variable speed air handler - there's less noise. That's because most of the time it's running at a lower speed. You also won't hear a thunking sound when it comes on.

A variable speed air handler ramps up to maximum speed slowly instead of coming full-on at once. This means there are no sudden bursts or blasts, insuring more even airflow.

ComfortR™ Benefits - Trane Exclusive

Optimum Comfort Increased Dehumidification

Warm Air Heating Selectable Air Flow

  

Trane's unique ComfortR™ feature provides improved dehumidification in cooling startup. This is accomplished by running the fan at slower speed during startup. A simple change to the blower control settings provides the enhanced comfort. Conventional units are only fully on or fully off, providing little time for extra dehumidification. Trane runs at 100% speed only when required.

   
Like a Breath of Fresh Air
There's nothing quite like the quality of air you get with a Trane Variable Speed Air Handler. A variable speed air handler operates at slower fan speeds. This means more unwanted particles cling to the filter, flowing cleaner air into your home.

In a conventional single speed air handler, air is pulled through the filter at a consistently high rate of speed. This lessens the filter's ability to collect dust and allergens.

Comfort That Will Save You Money
Now here's a variable speed advantage that you can't afford to live without. A Trane Variable Speed Air Handler actually costs less to operate than a standard air handler. In fact, 40 percent less. More comfort for less money? What are you waiting for!

A Trane variable speed air handler has 8 dip switches allowing your dealer to select from 12 levels of air flow.

Experience the ComfortR™ Difference
Trane's exclusive ComfortR™ feature represents the ultimate in comfort. Most standard air handlers have only three fan speeds. But with Trane there are 12 different CFM (cubic feet per minute) settings, meaning greater airflow flexibility and an enhanced level of comfort. Your Trane dealer will determine the appropriate setting based on the airflow requirements of your home. Once your specific comfort zone has been established, your home's temperature will vary much less than a standard system.

The ComfortR™ feature gives you even greater humidity control. In this mode, air moves over the coil more slowly at startup. This allows the coil to rapidly cool down resulting in increased moisture removal. The ComfortR™ feature also gives you a warmer air startup in heating with a heat pump.

These managed cycles of activity allow us to keep temperature variances within the boundaries of your comfort zone. Imagine the difference ComfortR™ could make in your home.

Your present system more than likely swings 3 to 5 degrees before it goes on or off. With a variable speed air handler, those days are long gone. The ComfortR™ enhanced mode allows your home to stay within the boundaries of your comfort zone.
