2 Ton Rheem 15.2 SEER2 R454B Central Wall Mount Apartment/Condo Type System RA14AY24BJ1NA, RF2TY2421STANSJ
This 2 ton Rheem Endeavor® Line Classic® system pairs the second-design RA14AY24BJ1NA condenser with the RF2TY2421STANSJ wall mount apartment/condo air handler, AHRI certified at 15.2 SEER2 (#216375622). The RF2TY's constant torque motor and two-stage airflow raise efficiency above the PSC-based RF1PY match. It runs on low-GWP R-454B with Rheem's PlusOne® Refrigerant Detection System™. It's available with no heat or factory-installed 5, 8 or 10 kW breakered heat.
Is a 2 Ton Air Conditioning System the Right Size?
Two tons (24,000 BTU/h) is common in 1- and 2-bedroom apartments and condos around 900–1,200 sq. ft. as a general reference.
Corner units, top floors and large sliding doors raise the load. A Manual J load calculation is the best way to confirm 2 tons before replacing an existing wall mount system.
Ideal for: 1- and 2-bedroom apartments, condos and townhomes with a wall mount air handler closet.
Need more capacity? Step up to the 2.5 Ton Rheem 15.2 SEER2 R454B Central Wall Mount Apartment/Condo Type System RA14AY30AJ1NA, RF2TY3624STANSJ for a larger load.
Recommended home sizes are general guidelines only. Actual system requirements depend on insulation, climate, windows, ductwork, occupancy and a proper load calculation. Request free sizing assistance, contact Budget Heating, or call 813-885-7999.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is this 2 ton wall mount rated 15.2 SEER2 while the RF1PY version is 14.3?
The RF2TY's constant torque motor and two-stage airflow use less fan energy than the RF1PY's PSC motor. The same condenser with the RF1PY2421 is AHRI rated 14.3 SEER2; see the RA14AY24BJ1NA, RF1PY2421STANSJ system.
Which speed taps does the RF2TY2421 use for 2 tons?
Rheem ships the RF2TY on speed taps 4 (low static) and 5 (high static), which are the 2 ton settings. No tap change is needed for this match.
Can the RF2TY2421STANSJ use a bottom return?
Yes. Rheem's RF2TY can be set up for a front or bottom return, but it's built for vertical upflow installation only.
Is the RF2TY filter washable?
Rheem supplies the RF2TY with a durable framed, cleanable 20" x 20" x 1" filter for the 21" cabinet. Clean or replace it regularly.
What circuit does the RF2TY2421 need with the 10 kW heater?
Rheem lists a 46/53 amp minimum circuit ampacity and 50/60 amp maximum circuit protection at 208/240V for the RF2TY24 with 10 kW.
Where do I find electrical data for the RA14AY24BJ1NA?
Use the condenser's rating plate. The linked RA14AY spec sheet covers the first-design RA14AY24A, and the B design's electrical values may differ.
