Rheem introduced the second generation of its
Comfort Control System or CC2S. The new HVAC control panel offers detailed
system status displays for the contractor and a set of system control features
for the homeowner. A new feature of the CC2S technology is its auto-configure
capability. When a Rheem Series 500 thermostat is used in tandem with the
controller, the contractor can set up the system, simultaneously monitor the
air handler and heat pump, and customize the home comfort settings from one
location. The Rheem CC2S has a four-wire installation. A control board located
on the indoor and outdoor units features a dual seven-segment LED display that
provides up to 37 individual fault codes. The control board also features a
defrost component, eliminating the need for a secondary defrost board and
reducing the number of individual parts that need service or maintenance. When
coupled with the Rheem thermostat, the CC2S provides seven-day programmability,
humidity control and system status notification. The 500 will also communicate
maintenance reminders, such as the need to change filters, ultraviolet lights
and humidifier pads.
