The largest cassette on the site: 33,600 BTU of cooling and 34,000 of heating despite the 36k badge, certifying at 21 SEER2 with 8.5 HSPF2 and rated to -13F.

Two things to hold onto. The badge overstates capacity by around 2,400 BTU, so size against 33,600. And the -13F rating means this is not the unit to make a cold-climate house depend on. Within those limits it can condition a genuinely large open floor from one ceiling position.

Purchase channel policy

GREE publishes an online/retail warranty-claim path for equipment purchased online, Home Depot, or Lowes rather than treating online purchase as a warranty voidance.

Warranty impact
Online purchase changes the claim path: routine parts use GREE's online claim form, while compressor failures and refrigerant leaks require tech-support confirmation before the online claim.
Installation condition
Warranty claims for online/retail purchases must be completed by a contractor after an on-site diagnosis, with required documentation such as purchase receipt or installation invoice and data-plate photos.
Authorized channel
GREE distributor path for distributor purchases; GREE online warranty claim form for equipment purchased online, Home Depot, or Lowes; GREE offers a 10-year extended warranty through GREE Select dealers, with registration.

GREE online purchases have a manufacturer-published warranty path, but buyers should keep purchase and installation documents and use a licensed HVAC contractor for diagnosis and claims.

Review methodology

Model context

Structured ratings
Certification: ENERGY STAR certified. Refrigerant: current low-GWP R-32. Minimum heating ambient: -13 F.

Strengths

  • 33,600 BTU cooling / 34,000 heating from a single ceiling head.
  • Four-way distribution across a very large floor plate.

Weaknesses

  • The 36k badge overstates it - certified cooling is 33,600 BTU.
  • -13F low-ambient rating, well short of the -22F smaller GREE lines manage.
  • 21 SEER2 is modest, and the head's size and weight make installation a significant job.

Frequently asked questions

Can I install the GREE Livo R32 36,000 BTU Four-Way Ceiling Cassette R-32 208/230V (CAS36HP230V1R32AH / LIV36HP230V1R32AO) myself, or do I need a pro?
GREE Livo R32 36,000 BTU Four-Way Ceiling Cassette R-32 208/230V (CAS36HP230V1R32AH / LIV36HP230V1R32AO) is built for professional installation: the line set must be flared, evacuated, and charged, which requires EPA-certified refrigerant handling. Installing it outside the manufacturer's requirements can void the warranty, so budget for a qualified HVAC installer.
Will the GREE Livo R32 36,000 BTU Four-Way Ceiling Cassette R-32 208/230V (CAS36HP230V1R32AH / LIV36HP230V1R32AO) keep heating in a cold winter?
The AHRI/ENERGY STAR certification lists 23,400 BTU/h of heating capacity at 5F. Rated heating operation extends down to -13 F. Certified heating efficiency is 8.5 HSPF2. Match those numbers against your climate's design temperature - in cold regions, output at 5F matters far more than the nameplate capacity measured at 47F.
What electrical circuit does the GREE Livo R32 36,000 BTU Four-Way Ceiling Cassette R-32 208/230V (CAS36HP230V1R32AH / LIV36HP230V1R32AO) need?
Published electrical requirements: 230 V voltage, 24 A minimum circuit ampacity, and 35 A maximum breaker or fuse sizing. Confirm the final circuit against the unit nameplate and local code with a licensed electrician.
How far can the outdoor unit be from the indoor head?
The published maximum line-set length is 131 ft. The outdoor unit's factory charge covers up to 25 ft of line; longer runs need added refrigerant. Measure the planned routing before ordering.
What warranty does the GREE Livo R32 36,000 BTU Four-Way Ceiling Cassette R-32 208/230V (CAS36HP230V1R32AH / LIV36HP230V1R32AO) carry?
The manufacturer publishes these warranty tiers: Base: 5 yr parts / 7 yr compressor (eligible residential system). Score uses Base.. Registration requirements and proof of qualified installation commonly affect coverage, so read the warranty terms before install day.
