SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) measures the energy efficiency of heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment. The higher the SEER rating, the more efficient your equipment runs, lowering your energy use and saving you money. *AHRI eligibility for split system central air conditioners and air source heat pumps are based on installation of matched outdoor unit, indoor coil and furnace. Rebates are available for 15 SEER or higher air conditioning units and 18 SEER, 14 EER and 9.7 HSPF or higher for heat pumps. Each requires AHRI certification that, when installed, the package of the equipment meets the specified SEER. Since these efficiency levels are above those required for ENERGY STAR® certification, an efficient furnace upgrade may be necessary to meet the SEER requirement. |
