YORK® product
YORK® PHE6
The PHE6 upgrades the packaged heat pump to two-stage operation, up to 16 SEER cooling and 8.2 HSPF heating, with ENERGY STAR certification. The low stage carries most Central Texas hours efficiently; full capacity covers the peaks. One cabinet, no gas line, better part-load comfort — we'll confirm it suits your building before quoting.

Factory-authorized
YORK® PHE6
The PHE6 upgrades the packaged heat pump to the premium tier: a two-stage scroll compressor delivering up to 16 SEER (15.2 SEER2) cooling and 8.2 HSPF heating, with ENERGY STAR certification — all electric, all in one cabinet.
The low stage carries most Central Texas hours efficiently and quietly; full capacity covers July afternoons and February cold snaps. Two-stage operation also means better humidity control during the muggy shoulder seasons — the classic weak spot of single-stage packaged equipment — and efficient time/temperature defrost keeps winter operating costs disciplined.
York's ten-year compressor, parts, and electric-heat limited warranties apply on registered units. We confirm the unit suits your building's structure, ducting, and electrical service before quoting — packaged installs live or die on those details.
Every install starts with a free in-home assessment and a flat written price — no surprises. Call 512-528-4258 or request service online.

From the field
Owning this system in Central Texas
The two-stage compressor gives this unit a genuinely quiet low mode — worth pairing with a thermostat configured to favor it. We set staging thresholds at commissioning so high stage is a tool, not the default.
As with its PCE6 sibling, the ten-year electric heat coverage is worth the registration paperwork we file for you: strips are the wear item on all-electric packaged units, and here they're warrantied for a decade.
Against the PHE4, the math favors the PHE6 wherever the unit runs long hours — the two-stage compressor earns its premium in both directions, cooling more efficiently through our eight-month summers and heating more efficiently through winter. For a lightly occupied building, we'll tell you plainly if the PHE4 is the smarter spend.
