TIPS FOR SAVING ENERGY 

If you're purchasing a new air conditioning unit you'll likely automatically see energy savings in your electric bill because the newer units have high-tech technology built in to work better than ever before.

​

You may have heard about SEER, a scale system developed to measure air conditioners based on their energy efficiency in different regions of the country.  The SEER number you see on your newer unit helps you see the benefits of the machine of your choice.  The standards indicate a minimum of 15 SEER is perfect for our area.

​

The Main Benefits of a High SEER Rating Are:

• Lower Energy Bills
• Reduced Carbon Footprint
• Possible Incentives & Rebates from Your Electric Provider
• More Effiicient Moisture Removal

​

You can use the SEER ratings to compare the benefits and savings of a new unit to your current one with a calculator like this one:

Things to Note About Seer:

Just like a vehicle’s MPG, the higher the SEER2 rating (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) on your air conditioner, the higher its efficiency, which will provide you energy savings every season you use it.

Remember, other factors may affect your system’s overall efficiency, even with an efficient air conditioning unit. Things like ductwork, insulation, and even ceiling height can make air flow and cooling different in every situation.
