SEER, or Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio, is a measure used to rate the efficiency of air conditioning units. It represents the cooling output (in BTUs) during a typical cooling season divided by the total electric energy input (in watt-hours) during the same period, providing an average efficiency over the season.
Calculation: SEER is determined by dividing the total amount of cooling (BTU) provided by the system over a typical cooling season by the total electrical energy (Wh) consumed during that period.
Testing: Standardized tests under specific conditions to simulate real-world performance across a range of temperatures.
The SEER rating is crucial when selecting an air conditioning system for energy efficiency and cost savings over time. While higher SEER units might have a higher initial cost, the long-term benefits in energy savings, comfort, and environmental impact make them a wise investment. Understanding SEER alongside other efficiency metrics like HSPF for heating can lead to better HVAC choices for your needs.
