If you’re thinking about replacing your AC system, you’ve probably come across the term SEER2. Here’s a quick breakdown for fellow DFW homeowners:
🔍 What is SEER2?
It stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio – Version 2, introduced in 2023. Unlike older ratings, SEER2 reflects real-world conditions—like ductwork length and airflow resistance, which are common in Texas homes.
📉 Why the Update?
The Department of Energy wanted efficiency ratings that actually match how systems perform in real homes, especially in tough climates like ours.
📊 SEER vs. SEER2 (What Changed?)
A system once labeled SEER 16 might now be SEER2 15.2. In Texas, the minimum required is:
• 14.3 SEER2 (for smaller systems)
• 13.8 SEER2 (for larger systems)
💡 Why It Matters:
• Lower electric bills during peak summer months
• More consistent comfort across your home
• Eligibility for rebates and tax credits
• Smarter long-term investment in your property
🤔 Not Sure What Rating You Need?
Most homes do best with SEER2 ratings between 14.3–20.0. The key is matching your home’s needs—not just buying the “highest number.”
