Patent ID: 7290399

Claim:
A heat pump system comprising: a plurality of circuits, with each of said circuits including a compressor, an outdoor heat exchanger, an expansion device, and an indoor heat exchanger, and a first flow control device for selectively routing refrigerant from said compressor to either said indoor heat exchanger when in a heating mode, or to said outdoor heat exchanger when in a cooling mode; at least one of said circuits having a reheat branch; said reheat branch receiving refrigerant, and passing the refrigerant through a reheat coil, and returning the refrigerant to the circuit downstream of the reheat coil, and an air-moving device for passing air over at least a portion of said indoor heat exchanger, and over at least a portion of said reheat coil; and at least one additional flow control device being included to selectively communicate refrigerant between at least two circuits.
