Bosch Home Comfort, a leading source of high-quality heating, cooling and hot water systems, has unveiled a new R-454B version of its Bosch Climate 5000 Ductless Mini-Split Heat Pumps in compliance with low GWP A2L refrigerant requirements.

Designed for effortless installation without the need for ductwork, Bosch mini-splits offers efficient heating and cooling with whisper-quiet operation. These systems also include a factory-installed A2L Sensor on the evaporator coil that directly connects to the indoor unit’s control base.
