SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) measures the energy efficiency of heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment. The higher the SEER rating, the more efficiently your equipment runs, lowering your energy use and saving you money.
*AHRI eligibility for split system central air conditioners are based on installation of matched outdoor unit, indoor coil and furnace. Rebates are available for air conditioning units with a rating of 14.3 SEER2 or higher. Each requires AHRI certification that, when installed, the package of the equipment meets the specified SEER. Since these efficiency levels are above those required for ENERGY STAR certification, an efficient furnace upgrade may be necessary to meet the SEER requirement. Air source and ground source heat pumps are eligible for electric customers replacing electric heating.
**Ductless mini-splits are eligible for electric customers replacing electric heating.
† Premise eligibility is limited to single family homes. Single family homes are defined as 2 or less connected units. Each unit must be individually metered for natural gas and electric and each unit must have its own heating, cooling and water heating equipment.
