Top Features

The Bottom Line

The Performance Series NXA6 is efficient, but this efficiency doesn’t mean anything if the system can’t last. That’s why KeepRite has designed the unit with an outer shell of baked-on powder-coat finish over galvanized steel, and access panels for easy coil cleaning, so your unit can perform maximum cooling comfort for years to come.

In-Depth Review

• Compressor type:  Single-stage scroll compressor
• Environmentally friendly R-410A refrigerant that contributes zero-ozone depletion
• Single-speed fan motor
• Thermostat compatibility option, so you can have better access to fine-tune temperature adjustments

Cooling comfort is great, but it’s difficult to enjoy if your system is so loud that you’re unable to enjoy it.

The system’s sound production can reach as low as 76 decibels, so you can relax and enjoy the cold air without any ruckus.

Warranty Information

Comparable Models by KeepRite

Model Comparison by Features

The Performance Series NXA6 belongs to KeepRite’s economy-level line of air conditioners, but that doesn’t mean it sacrifices much in the way of features. While a more advanced model like the ProComfort™ Series CSA6 has a more comprehensive warranty package and boasts Wi-Fi compatibility, the NXA6 has a comparable SEER rating and can reach similar levels of sound reduction.

Model Comparison by Price

In the realm of pricing, the NXA6 is a rare model that comes at a considerably lower cost than more advanced models from the brand, but it also holds a relatively high SEER rating. This means that it comes at a similar price as a model from the Performance line, like the N4A5,  but it operates more efficiently and saves more energy in the long-run.

Model Comparison by Tier

KeepRite has divided its central air conditioners into 3 tiers: ProComfort™ Deluxe being the higher, ProComfort™ being the middle, and Performance as the economy-level tier. The NXA6 belongs to the economy tier, which means it offers less in terms of advanced features and technology, but it remains as dependable and reliable as any air conditioner from the brand.
