How the Bryant 235SAN Solves Portland Climate Challenges
Budget-friendly reliability for dependable year-round comfort
Affordable Heat Pump for Portland
The 235SAN delivers reliable year-round comfort at Bryant's most accessible price point. With 16 SEER2 cooling and 8.1 HSPF2 heating, it meets ENERGY STAR standards and qualifies for rebates while fitting budget-conscious homeowner needs.
Replace separate AC and furnace with one affordable system - lower initial cost and still qualify for Energy Trust of Oregon rebates.
Portland's Mild Climate Match
Portland's temperate climate (mild winters, warm summers) is ideal for single-stage heat pumps. The 235SAN runs at full capacity when needed, then cycles off - straightforward operation that works perfectly in our moderate temperature range.
Simple, reliable performance without paying for variable-speed features you may not need in Portland's mild weather.
DuraGuard™ Protection
Even at the Legacy price point, the 235SAN includes DuraGuard™ powder-paint finish and coil protection. Portland's wet winters and coastal air demand durable outdoor equipment that resists rust and corrosion.
Extended cabinet and coil life even in Portland's damp environment - quality Bryant construction at every price level.
Upgrade from Old Equipment
Replacing a 10-15 year old heat pump or AC system? The 235SAN's 16 SEER2 efficiency is significantly better than older equipment (often 10-13 SEER), meaning immediate energy savings to help offset the investment.
Save 20-35% on cooling costs compared to older equipment while adding efficient heating capability.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Bryant 235SAN
How does the 235SAN compare to higher-tier Bryant heat pumps?
The Bryant 235SAN is the Legacy Line entry point, offering 16 SEER2 cooling and 8.1 HSPF2 heating with single-stage operation. Higher-tier models like the Preferred 246SAN add InteliSense™ remote monitoring (16.5 SEER2), the Preferred 248TAN adds two-stage operation (18 SEER2), and Evolution models offer variable-speed technology (20-23 SEER2). The 235SAN provides proven Bryant quality and reliability at the most budget-friendly price. For Portland's mild climate, the 235SAN's efficiency level is sufficient for comfortable year-round heating and cooling while still qualifying for ENERGY STAR certification and rebates.
Is the 235SAN a good replacement for an old system?
Yes, the Bryant 235SAN is an excellent replacement for older heat pumps, air conditioners, or furnace/AC combinations. If your current system is 10-15+ years old (typically 10-13 SEER), upgrading to the 235SAN's 16 SEER2 efficiency provides immediate 20-35% energy savings on cooling costs. The 235SAN also adds efficient heat pump heating capability if you're currently using electric resistance heat or an older furnace. The single-stage design means lower installation costs than variable-speed systems, while Puron Advance® (R-454B) refrigerant ensures long-term serviceability. For Portland homeowners seeking reliable Bryant performance without premium features, the 235SAN delivers excellent value.
Does the 235SAN qualify for rebates despite being the Legacy Line?
Yes, the Bryant 235SAN qualifies for substantial rebates and tax credits. With 16 SEER2 and 8.1 HSPF2 efficiency, it meets ENERGY STAR certification requirements and qualifies for Energy Trust of Oregon heat pump rebates (up to $2,500), federal 25C tax credits (up to $2,000), and Bryant manufacturer promotions (up to $1,650 seasonally). Total potential savings can reach $6,150, significantly offsetting the system cost. The Legacy Line pricing combined with full rebate eligibility makes the 235SAN Portland's most affordable way to get Bryant quality, ENERGY STAR efficiency, and year-round heat pump comfort.
