Ameristar Air Conditioner Models and Performance

A4AC5 High-Efficiency Series (Up to 15.2 SEER2)

The A4AC5 represents Ameristar's premium offering for homeowners prioritizing energy efficiency. New laws incentivize homeowners to switch to more eco-friendly appliances, so if you play your cards right, you could receive tax credits for switching to a 16-SEER model like the A4AC5 model. This single-stage air conditioner delivers impressive cooling performance while maintaining reasonable operating costs.

Customer feedback highlights the A4AC5's exceptional value proposition. I recently purchased the 4 Ton Ameristar by Trane 15.2 SEER2 R410A Single Stage Air Conditioner Condenser, and I'm thrilled with the unbeatable price, exceptional equipment quality, and outstanding performance, shares one satisfied homeowner.

M4AC3 Value Series (13-14 SEER)

The only non-branded option—M4AC5—is less expensive than the others, mainly thanks to its lower-quality parts for mass production. Despite being positioned as an entry-level model, the M4AC3 provides dependable cooling for moderate climate zones. The M4AC3 is the perfect air conditioner for price sensitive buyers seeking basic but reliable performance.

Heat Pump Options

Heat pumps by Ameristar provide year round comfort. They come equipped with a number of advanced features that allow them to operate almost noiselessly. Ameristar heat pumps consume less energy helping owners reduce their energy costs.

Ameristar vs Competition Analysis

Technical Specifications Comparison

Ameristar currently only offers single-stage scrolling compressors. While scrolling compressors are slightly more efficient than standard compressors, they are less efficient than modernized inverters and multi-stage compressors. The good news, though, is that single-stage compressor systems are much more affordable than multi-stage compressor air conditioners.
