MILWAUKEE, March 21, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The YORK^® brand of Johnson Controls today announced a contest that will award one lucky homeowner with a new whole-house heating and cooling system. Chip Wade, designer and HGTV personality made the announcement in conjunction with the launch of YORK Affinity™ Variable Capacity Residential Systems, the brand's newest, most advanced, high-efficiency home comfort systems.

For a chance to win a complete YORK Affinity Variable Capacity Residential System, valued up to $10,000, homeowners should visit www.YORKgiveaway.com where they will be asked to complete a short form and submit a photo using #AmericanQuality in keeping with YORK's American quality story.

"Today's connected homeowners want efficient performance, worry-free reliability and functionality that fits their active lifestyles," said Liz Haggerty, vice president and general manager, Unitary Products Group, Johnson Controls. "That's exactly what the best-in-class technologies found in our new Affinity systems deliver, beginning with variable capacity technology. Unlike conventional systems that simply turn on and off, systems that include inverter driven variable capacity air conditioners or heat pumps continually adjust airflow to more precisely meet comfort needs, eliminating temperature swings and reducing energy consumption."

YORK Affinity Variable Capacity Residential Systems are the most efficient in the entire YORK product line-up, offering a seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) up to 20 and ENERGY STAR^® Most Efficient certification. Efficiency is enhanced by matched and communicating indoor and outdoor equipment that is seamlessly integrated with the Wi-Fi^®-enabled YORK Affinity Hx™ Thermostat. This easy-to-use touch-screen thermostat allows homeowners to precisely control and monitor their home comfort systems using a smart device from anywhere in the world, where internet access is available.

A second advanced technology, unique among residential systems, YORK's built-in Charge Assurance™ monitoring on air conditioners and heat pumps allows contractors to evaluate system refrigerant charge without connecting gauges, sensors or accessories. This results in faster system set-up, more efficient routine maintenance, maximized service life and homeowner peace of mind.

The launch of YORK Affinity Variable Capacity Residential Systems draw on more than 140 years of Johnson Controls experience designing and installing heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems. Designed, engineered and assembled in the United States, system components are backed by the manufacturing expertise of Fortune 100 parent company Johnson Controls and an unmatched limited one-year labor warranty, lifetime compressor and 10-year parts limited warranties on registered products. Highly Accelerated Life Testing (HALT) facilities aid in the systematic testing of components, including more than 20 years of accelerated operation testing for weather, humidity and temperatures as high as 125° F and as low as -10° F to ensure lasting performance and world-class quality. In addition to ENERGY STAR efficiency, models have earned Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval accolades.
