But what about air conditioning units or heat pumps? The efficiency of air conditioners (and heat pumps) is measured in SEER ratings. The higher the SEER rating, the less money you will spend each year keeping your home comfortable. Here is a comparison to help you make a decision:

This is a typical estimate of operating cost savings over a 15 year period. Your cost savings will vary, and may be higher. Also factor in that many utility companies provide energy savings rebates when customers install a new Energy Star rated central air system, plus any available Energy Star Federal tax credits, and you may have all the reasons you need to upgrade your old system to a new, high efficiency Heil Heating and Cooling system!
