Description
The DiversiTech SSH6T SoftStart Home is a residential soft starter engineered to reduce the high inrush current that occurs when a central air conditioner or heat pump compressor starts up. By gradually ramping motor voltage at startup, the SSH6T dramatically lowers peak electrical demand, reduces mechanical stress on the compressor, and helps extend the overall lifespan of the HVAC system.
Designed for broad compatibility, the SSH6T supports systems up to 6-ton (72,000 BTU) capacity and operates across a wide voltage range of 110V–220V, making it suitable for virtually any single-phase residential central AC or heat pump installation. Its compact, low-profile design allows for straightforward installation inside or adjacent to the condensing unit without requiring major modifications.
