14-15 SEER - Indoor Section

What does having 14 SEER mean?

Your cooling system’s efficiency is measured by a Seasonal Energy Efficiency Rating (SEER). The higher the SEER rating the more efficiently your unit operates. Increased efficiency translates into savings in utility costs. This indoor section features variable speed technology that increases the 13 SEER outdoor section efficiency to 14 SEER, or your 14 SEER outdoor section to 15 SEER, while also providing more even temperatures throughout the home.

Annual savings based on 36,000 BTU unit, 1500 cooling load hours, and .08/kwh. Actual savings may vary depending on climate conditions, energy rates and patterns of usage.

What are the benefits of variable speed?

Variable speed technology under normal operating conditions ensures constant comfort for the homeowner because the motor will automatically maintain its programmed level of airflow. This constant airflow capability provides a number of important benefits:

• The ECM system can compensate for poor duct design.

• Systems with inadequate duct volume can now deliver factory calibrated airflow.

• Better indoor-air quality can be achieved quietly and inexpensively with the ECM motor, because it can be set to run continuously at reduced airflow levels, between heating or cooling cycles.

This allows for better air filtration without excessive drafts, and without sacrificing efficiency. In fact, if you run your thermostat in continuous fan mode, your electricity consumption will be reduced from 500 watts to 65 watts over a package system that has a standard blower.
