Harmonic balance is the engineering practice of ensuring that multiple compressors or fans in a large system do not create a "drone" or rhythmic vibration. This is specifically addressed in our Quad-Zone and Penta-Zone condensers through internal counter-weighting. For residential areas where quiet is a priority, mounting the condenser on a Ground Stand with vibration-isolating feet is the best approach. Our Bravo Milano 30,000 BTU 2-Zone (12k+18k) units are factory-balanced to ensure they remain barely audible. If wall mounting is necessary, using our heavy-duty Wall Bracket prevents the transfer of these harmonics into the house framing. Furthermore, Line Set Covers help to dampen any slight vibrations traveling through the copper lines. Achieving this balance is what makes Bravo Milano a premium choice for noise-sensitive installations.
