HOW TO TELL IF A SYSTEM IS ENERGY-EFFICIENT?

To make sure the system you’re considering for your commercial business or home is as energy efficient as possible, look for high percentages in the following:

Annual fuel utilization efficiency (AFUE)

A measurement of oil- or gas-burning efficiency.

Seasonal energy efficiency rating (SEER)

A measurement of electrical efficiency in cooling with an air conditioner or heat pump.

Heating seasonal performance factor (HSPF)

A measurement of electrical efficiency in heating with a heat pump.

ENERGY STAR®

A program launched by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. This certification denotes that the product meets high standards of efficiency. This logo denotes that the product meets high standards of efficiency.

WHAT DOES AN ENERGY STAR® CERTIFICATION MEAN?

Having an ENERGY STAR® certified HVAC product means great energy savings. Here’s how:

If you currently spend $100 a month to heat or cool your home, you would spend just $48 if you bought a system with a SEER rating of 52%.
If you currently spend $100 a month to heat or cool your home, you would spend just $71 if you bought a system with an HSPF rating of 29%.
If you currently spend $100 a month to heat or cool your home, you would spend just $77 if you bought a system with an HSPF rating of 23%.

EASY PATHS TO ENERGY SAVINGS

To make sure the system you’re considering for your commercial business or home is as energy efficient as possible, look for high percentages in the following:

Maintain the proper humidity 

The optimal indoor humidity level falls between 40 and 60%. The higher the humidity you maintain during the summer, the less cooling you will experience. You will actually feel comfortable at higher temperatures. Consider a Carrier Variable Speed indoor unit and a Carrier Infinity™ or Thermidistat™ Control or Infinity Zoning System.

Avoid waste

No need to heat or cool rooms that aren’t used. Zoning or programmable thermostats will accommodate your routine by lowering heating/cooling in rooms that are not occupied.

Maintain your equipment 

An ultraviolet germicidal light, along with an air purifier or air cleaner, will keep your commercial HVAC system performing at its best. Don’t forget regularly scheduled maintenance!
