Upgrade Your Year-Round Comfort: Trane 17 Multi-Speed Heat Pump with WeatherGuard™

When you live in Springfield, MO, or the surrounding Ozarks region, you need a heat pump that can handle Missouri’s extremes—icy mornings, humid summers, and everything in between. That’s where the Trane 17 Multi-Speed Heat Pump with WeatherGuard™ Top comes in. Designed for reliable comfort across all seasons, this model offers impressive energy efficiency, smart performance, and long-lasting durability thanks to its innovative features and weather-ready construction.

Let’s break down what makes the Trane 17 a smart choice for your home—and your wallet.

Multi-Speed Operation for Precision Comfort

Unlike standard single-speed systems that cycle on and off, this multi-speed heat pump adjusts its output gradually to match your home’s needs. The result? More consistent temperatures, quieter operation, and better humidity control—especially during those muggy Springfield summers. You'll feel the difference in every room.

And thanks to its inverter-driven compressor, it can ramp up or down to maintain steady comfort without the energy spikes of older systems.

Efficient Even in Cold Weather

Here’s where the Trane 17 really shines: it’s tested to provide up to 70% of its heating capacity at just 5° F and continues delivering 100% heating capacity down to 27° F. That’s a big deal in our region, where cold snaps can hit hard. You can depend on this system to keep your home cozy even when temps dip below freezing.

SEER2 & HSPF2 Ratings That Matter

With ratings up to 18 SEER2 and 11 HSPF2, the Trane 17 Multi-Speed Heat Pump meets ENERGY STAR® qualifications and stands among the most efficient options in its class. That efficiency means real savings on your utility bills year-round.

Plus, modern SEER2 ratings reflect real-world performance, so you know you're getting energy efficiency that counts in everyday conditions—not just a lab setting.

WeatherGuard™ Top = Year-Round Protection

The signature WeatherGuard™ top helps shield your unit from leaves, debris, and severe weather conditions—perfect for homes in the Ozarks where storms can roll in fast. It adds both durability and peace of mind, helping protect your HVAC investment season after season.

Lower-Impact Refrigerant: Meet R-454B

The Trane 17 features R-454B, a next-generation refrigerant with a significantly lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) than older R-410A systems. Not only is it better for the environment, but it’s also the new standard for 2025 and beyond. Choosing a unit with R-454B ensures your system meets future regulations and avoids phased-out refrigerants.

Upgrading now means you're ready for the future—without the risk of high refrigerant costs or availability issues down the road.

Rebates & Tax Credits: Save More

Your investment in the Trane 17 Multi-Speed Heat Pump could be even more affordable thanks to a variety of rebate programs and incentives:

✅ Springfield City Utilities offers a $500 rebate for qualifying residential heat pumps.
✅ Federal Tax Credit: Under current legislation, you could qualify for up to 30% of the project cost (up to $2,000). (Talk to your tax advisor for details.)
✅ Check with your local utility providers—additional rebates may be available depending on your location.

Warranty & Labor Protection for Peace of Mind

At SS&B Heating & Cooling, we take that peace of mind even further by including a complimentary 2-Year Labor Warranty on select systems. And for even more protection?
