A cheap, cooling-first flare unit: 17 SEER2 and heating that ends at 5°F. Its manual wants an A2L-certified tech, so it is the wrong box for a DIY buyer.

Before you buy
- Easy to confuse with the Klimaire DIY 5th Gen; the Entrada title says "17 SEER2" and the line is flare, not quick-connect.
- Its product page header says heat to -5°F, but its size table and spec sheet say 5°F.
