Armstrong Air Air Conditioner Overview
Armstrong Air AC series and models
The Armstrong Air company launched in 1928, offering high-quality heating and cooling systems to consumers with high expectations. Meeting those expectations involves the use of durable materials and the incorporation of innovative technology. All units feature a 10-year limited warranty, which further ensures the company stands behind their brand. Armstrong Air features three types of air conditioners, including two-stage, variable-performance and single-stage models.
Armstrong two-stage air conditioners
Armstrong’s two-stage air conditioners operate longer, providing cooling at lower capacities than their single-stage counterparts. They also readily operate at higher capacities to maintain indoor comfort in extreme heat. These units are equipped with a communicating control board, making them Comfort Sync compatible.
When coupled with the Comfort Sync thermostat, the units benefit from non-stop operation monitoring that leaves the temperature at a comfortable average. Also, the system can detect and email repair and maintenance needs to the homeowner and dealer. Some of these two-stage air conditioners also come with “Integrated Compressor Protection,” which consists of high- and low-pressure switches for quality, reliable operation.
Armstrong Air 4SCU16LS
For those looking for a quiet and efficient air conditioner, the 4SCU16LS is an excellent choice. It features a 10-year limited warranty, as well as reliable technology and protection.

Armstrong Air variable-performance air conditioners
Armstrong Air features variable-performance air conditioners that get their name because of their variable-speed compressors. Much like a dimmer switch, they match the unit’s heat load with the compressor’s speed and adjust incrementally.
When consumers match these units with an Armstrong furnace, they can increase their home’s cooling performance. That performance amplifies even further by adding a Comfort Sync A3 thermostat.
Armstrong Air 4SCU20LX
One of the biggest benefits of a variable-capacity performance air conditioner is its variable-capacity inverter scroll compressor, which uses small increments to cool rather than turning the unit completely on or off.

Care and maintenance of Armstrong air conditioners
Armstrong instructs homeowners to change the air conditioner’s filter regularly to increase the quality of air in the home. Users can opt to receive filter changing reminders via email from the company. For cooling units, the manufacturer advises scheduling annual maintenance before summer.
Warranty
Armstrong air conditioners come with a standard limited warranty of 5-year coverage on the compressor and 5-year coverage on parts. Extended warranties are available that bring the coverage to 10 years for both the compressor and parts. Warranties must be registered for the homeowner to receive full benefits.
