January 23, 2006 marked the new era in home comfort. By federal law,
the minimum efficiency standard for newly manufactured air conditioners and heat pumps increased from 10 SEER to 13 SEER.
SEER is short for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio. For you, this means that since 2006, new systems are about 30% more efficient than previous 10 SEER systems.This, coupled with environmentally friendly refrigerants, is why more than ever it’s important to understand how these will affect your system’s performance.
Does a matched system matter?
If the indoor coil is not matched with the outdoor unit, several major problems can occur, such as:
- Capacity will not be sufficient to keep you comfortable.
- Energy bills will increase due to reduced efficiency.
- Your manufacturer’s warranty may become void.
- Reliability will suffer and compressor failure is more likely to occur.
