Save Even More on Utilities by Upgrading to a Higher-Efficiency Air Conditioner
Upgrading to a more efficient Air Conditioner can result in substantial monthly energy bill savings. Air conditioning units are rated based on their efficiency, as measured by their Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) value. The higher the SEER value, the greater the energy efficiency of the system. In comparison to older AC systems, which typically have a SEER value ranging from 8 to 12, newer units have a SEER value of 13 to 25 and are significantly more cost-effective to operate.
