 Best Air Conditioners &Heat Pumps 15/16 SEER - Outdoor Section What does having a 15/16 SEER Air Conditioner or Heat Pump mean? Your air conditioner or heat pump’s efficiency is measured by a Seasonal Energy EfficiencyRating (SEER). The higher the SEER rating the more efficiently your unit operates.Increased efficiency translates into savings in utility costs. Annual savings based on 36,000 BTU unit, 1500 cooling load hours, and .08/kwh. Actual savings may vary depending on climate conditions, energy rates and patterns of usage. | |  |  The Frigidaire 15/16 SEER Two Stage Cooling air conditioners and heat pumps feature the latest environmentally-friendly, refrigerant technology, R-410A. Your Frigidaire air conditioner or heat pump has been carefully designed and engineered to give you outstanding energy efficiency and years of trouble-free operation. No detail has been left out. Frigidaire uses only proven components like the Ultra-tech Copeland® scroll compressor. It’s the leaders choice for efficiency, durability, and longevity. Just another “value added” manufacturing step built into all Frigidaire products. | What are the benefits of two stage; variable speed cooling? -
Two stage cooling products maintain a more consistent comfort level throughout your home. -
During the first stage, which is about 80% of the time, the unit will use about 68% of its cooling capacity. -
It will always start in the first stage and attempt to meet the cooling demand. -
Reduced capacity. -
When the temperature rises the air conditioner or heat pump automatically adjusts itself and enter the second stage to meet the increased cooling demand. -
A two stage, variable-speed unit runs for longer cycles and will remove up to six times more moisture than a conventional unit. -
The result is a more comfortable environment even at a higher thermostat setting. Thanks to two stage technology the temperature in your home will only vary a couple of degrees and you will experience quiet comfort. -
The unique variable speed motor decreases fan noise. -
Since the fan operates slower during the low stage cooling demand it produces less noise. -
The variable speed also allows the motor to ramp up to speed slowly eliminating uncomfortable temperature swings. -
Efficient operation is what two stage, variable speed cooling, is all about. -
Since your unit runs at the stage needed based off demand, you never pay for energy that is not needed. -
The indoor section, a coil or air handler, completes your new air conditioner or heat pump system. With this system, a indoor coil section with a variable speed gas or oil furnace is required if you have gas or oil heat. If you have a heat pump, then the matched variable air handler section is required to complete the system.
