Best Air Conditioners & Heat Pumps

15/16 SEERS - 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 Efficiency Rating (SEER). The higher the SEER rating the more efficiently your unit operates. Increased efficiency translates into savings in utility costs.
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.
