How Does 13 SEER Effect Our
Customers?
| This is a government mandate for
manufactures only but it is important to remember
that if your heat pump or air conditioning system is
less than 13 SEER then your system is outdated by
current industry standards. We're not saying
that this is reason enough to replace your
equipment, but it could be if you system uses an
older style refrigerant, and when you consider
today's new efficient (cost savings) equipment with
extended warranties. |

EX: If you
purchased your HP (heat pump) or A/C (air
conditioning system) in 1987. Then the average
SEER in the residential HVAC
industry for that year was...
8.95 for air conditioning systems & 8.92 for heat
pumps.
