At 206,000 BTU on standard commercial voltage with medium heat gas configuration, this commercial rooftop packaged unit is built for large retail complexes, major institutional buildings, substantial office campuses, large houses of worship, and high-occupancy commercial facilities in moderate climate zones — the Mid-Atlantic, Pacific Northwest, lower Midwest, and transitional climate markets — where the cooling load has outgrown 15-ton capacity and winter heating demands are genuine enough to require medium heat output but not severe enough to justify high heat specification. At 17.5-ton medium heat on 208\/230V power, this unit covers the step-up cooling demand of large moderate climate commercial buildings while keeping the gas heating system correctly sized for the actual winter conditions the building faces across its full annual operating cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe medium heat configuration at 17.5-ton capacity positions this unit at the center of the Foundation Series upper tier specification matrix for moderate climate markets — above the low heat warm climate entries in heat output, below the high heat cold climate entries in gas capacity, and correctly matched to the largest group of large commercial buildings in the broadest moderate climate geography. At 206,000 BTU cooling output in a moderate climate building, the annual load profile balances meaningful cooling demand through warm months with real but manageable winter heating requirements — medium heat delivers the gas output that covers those winter requirements without the fuel consumption overhead of a high heat system running at a fraction of its rated capacity through moderate winter conditions. For facility managers and building owners in moderate climate zones where both heating and cooling seasons carry genuine operational significance, medium heat at 17.5-ton capacity on standard commercial voltage is the specification that gets both sides of the annual load profile right simultaneously.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eAt 14.0 IEER and R-454B refrigerant, this unit maintains full commercial energy code compliance and factory refrigerant future-proofing at the 17.5-ton medium heat tier on standard commercial voltage. For large moderate climate commercial buildings running balanced annual heating and cooling cycles through 15 to 20-year equipment lifecycles, R-454B at installation eliminates the mid-lifecycle refrigerant retrofit risk that represents the most disruptive and costly unplanned service event a 17.5-ton commercial rooftop unit can generate. Single-stage operation at this capacity keeps commissioning straightforward and long-term service costs predictable across both heating and cooling seasons in large moderate climate commercial buildings where system availability matters equally on the coldest days of winter and the hottest days of summer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications at a Glance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"overflow-x-auto w-full px-2 mb-6\"\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"min-w-full border-collapse text-sm leading-[1.7] whitespace-normal\"\u003e\n\u003cthead class=\"text-left\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"text-text-100 border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.6)] py-2 pr-4 align-top font-bold\" scope=\"col\"\u003eSpec\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"text-text-100 border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.6)] py-2 pr-4 align-top font-bold\" scope=\"col\"\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eCapacity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003e17.5 Ton \/ 206,000 BTU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eHeat Configuration\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eMedium Heat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eIEER\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003e14.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eRefrigerant\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eR-454B\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eVoltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003e208\/230V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003ePhase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003e3-Phase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eHeating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eGas\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eCooling\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eElectric\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eStages\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eSingle Stage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eSeries\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top\"\u003eFoundation Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Trane","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55234269380899,"sku":"GDK210A3SMA1DQY","price":23854.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0766\/1171\/5363\/files\/TraneGDK_9e5fd715-ae92-4ad3-860d-1ac9ce180485.png?v=1781331538","url":"https:\/\/www.acunitsforless.com\/products\/trane-17-5-ton-commercial-gas-electric-packaged-unit-foundation-series-medium-heat-r454b-208-230v-3-phase","provider":"acunitsforless.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
