Captiveaire's Superior Dedicated Outdoor Air System
Backed by 40 years of ventilation expertise, Paragon by CaptiveAire is the ideal HVAC solution offering exceptional energy savings and unprecedented comfort and humidity control.
Paragon: Dedicated Outdoor Air System
Paragon is designed from its core to conserve energy and save on operating costs. Paragon’s rare earth magnet inverter scroll compressor eliminates excessive cycling, premature unit aging, inefficient hard starts, and unnecessary energy consumption. Paragon’s modulating technologies allow it to deliver the highest efficiencies at part-load conditions.
Paragon contains fully modulating refrigeration and optional hot gas reheat components that deliver the exact amount of air requested at the desired temperature and humidity. Variable speed components allow Paragon to adjust its heating and cooling capacity to match the required load. This provides a consistent temperature throughout the space and avoids large temperature swings often associated with single stage equipment.
Paragon achieves an impressive 20.2 IEER rating (Integrated Energy Efficiency Ratio) which is over 1.5x the ASHRAE 90.1-2016 IEER standard. Designed with the future in mind, Paragon is poised to exceed rising IEER standards for years to come.
