DECODING ENERGYSTAR LABELS ON YOUR HVAC UNIT

Del-Air

It’s not uncommon for Florida residents to run their cooling systems
throughout most of the year. As a result, homeowners are constantly seeking
ways to save money by cutting their energy bills. The EnergyStar program
exists to help home and business owners assess the energy quality of various
electrical appliances. However, these ratings can be confusing if you
aren’t an HVAC professional.

Air conditioning service professionals at Del-Air Heating and Air Conditioning strive to simplify
the HVAC process for all our customers while ensuring their comfort throughout
the year. Here are some key facts to understand about the various climate-control
appliances on the market today:

Understanding Efficiency Ratings

Energy ratings assess how efficient your home is in its energy performance.
The most efficient label designates those products that result in significant
monetary and energy savings during the course of the year. At Del-Air Heating and Air Conditioning,
we proudly provide a wide array of Energy Star systems by top manufacturers,
including Carrier, Trane and Lennox. Additionally, we offer a number of
products with high SEER ratings to help minimize electrical bills.

Used mainly for AC systems, SEER, or Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratings,
measure how efficient equipment is during the cooling season. While package
ACs are required to have a SEER of 16, split systems and heat pumps must
possess a minimum SEER of 18. The higher the SEER number is, the more
efficient the system. In fact, Del-Air Heating and Air Conditioning estimates that replacing an old
AC system with a new Energy Star model can cut home-cooling bills by an
astonishing 50 percent.
