What is a SEER rating and how does it impact my energy costs?

Magic Touch Mechanical
SEER means Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio. Like its "mpg" counterpart in the automotive industry, the SEER gives an indication of the performance efficiency of the system. The higher the SEER, the more efficient the unit. And, the more efficient the unit, the lower the operating costs. Experts say that by purchasing a system with a high SEER, you'll use less energy to cool your house, resulting in lower electric bills.

Why is the SEER rating on the Energy Guide different than what my dealer quoted?

Frequently Asked Questions - Carrier
Each split system cooling unit has a nominal SEER rating. This rating can be increased with the upgrade of the indoor unit. The SEER rating of a system is derived based on the combination of equipment installed in the home. The outdoor equipment (heat pump or air conditioner), as well as the indoor equipment (evaporator coil and furnace, or air handler), play a vital role in the rating. Please see your Carrier dealer for the information.
