SEER, AFUE and HSPF are all measures of energy efficiency. Air conditioner unit are not created equal. Seasonal Energy Efficiency Rating (SEER) can vary widely. Higher SEER ratings save more money spent on electricity. A 13 SEER air conditioner, the EPA "current minimum standard", uses 23% less energy than a 10 SEER unit (EPA standard up until Jan. 2006). Even though 13 SEER is the minimum efficiency available, we currently offer a line of air conditioners that start at 13 SEER and go all the way up to a 21 SEER . Depending on your average usage, higher SEER air conditioners can significantly reduce your electric bill. Heat pumps have SEER ratings like air conditioners and Heating Seasonal Performance Factor (HSPF) ratings for measuring heating efficiency. Higher HSPF ratings mean greater energy savings. The HSPF scale range is 7.5 to 13.0. Today's new high-efficiency furnaces can save up to 50% in operating costs over a ten-year-old furnace. As of May 1, 2013 is 80+% in southern states and 90+% in northern states. Our current product offering starts at this minimum AFUE rating and goes all the way to a very efficient 98.3% AFUE rating. Depending on your average usage, higher AFUE rated furnaces can significantly reduce your gas bill.

Variable speed equipment are very energy efficient: they are able to spin at various speeds based on the heating and cooling needs of your home. Usually, they operate at lower speeds, delivering a stream of warm or cool air to your space. This helps control humidity levels, system noise but most importantly utility costs . When outside conditions become more extreme, the fan speed increases so that the system can meet the increased demand. Guaranteeing, that on even the hottest days or coldest nights, you're comfort needs will be met.
