Ruud Heat Pump Reviews

Ruud is directly related to Rheem. Rheem and Rudd are sister companies under Japanese water heater manufacturer Paloma so the Rheem and Rudd product line is similar in technical features but different in name and sometimes color.

Ruud is not clear about efficiency ratings for the Ruud heat pumps in their product line-up. Ruud publishes that they offer heat pumps up to 17 SEER but give no HSPF rating which is how heat pumps are rated for efficiency purposes. Ruud is a member of AHRI so whatever efficiency ratings they list are certified by AHRI. Rheem heat pumps for selected Ruud heat pump models come with features such as:

Tw-Stage compressors in selected high efficiency models for better energy efficiency

Diagnostics control board for easier heat pump troubleshooting

Humidity control when matched with the proper air handler

pressure controls to prevent the unit from running when there is serious problem with heat pump pressures

For a history of Ruud see Rheem gas furnaces in the menu links. Currently both Rheem and Ruud are owned by Japanese water heater manufacturer Paloma.

If you are considering the purchase of a new Ruud HVAC product please email us with the specific model number and any information you may on the Ruud HVAC equipment you are interested in and we will do a technical review for you. Please review the current HVAC equipment you now own.
