Trane 3.5 Ton 5TTR5042A1000 is a 42,000 BTUh single-stage outdoor air conditioner condenser designed for residential split systems using R-454B refrigerant. When paired with qualifying Trane indoor equipment, the complete system can reach up to 15.2 SEER2. Trane’s published EnergyGuide lists 14.3 SEER2 and 11.7 EER2 for the tested equipment match. For buyers comparing a Trane 3.5 ton AC unit for a replacement or new installation, this model provides straightforward single-stage cooling with current-generation refrigerant technology.
The Climatuff Scroll Compressor delivers steady cooling through a proven single-stage design. Trane’s all-aluminum Spine Fin Coil supports effective heat transfer and outdoor airflow while reducing the number of conventional coil joints that may be exposed to leaks or corrosion.
The galvanized steel cabinet is finished with rust-resistant powder paint and protected by corrosion-resistant Weatherguard fasteners. A DuraTuff rustproof base pan protects the bottom of the AC condenser, while full-sided louvered panels shield the coil and internal components without restricting airflow.
This listing includes the outdoor condenser only. The indoor evaporator coil, air handler, furnace, thermostat, refrigerant lineset, installation materials and labor are not included unless they are specifically shown as part of a selected package. Because this AC unit uses R-454B refrigerant, it must be paired with compatible R-454B indoor equipment. It should not be connected to an evaporator coil or air handler designed only for R-410A.
