What is SEER2 and Why Did It Replace SEER?

SEER2 (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio 2) is the updated standard for measuring the energy efficiency of HVAC systems, officially mandated as of January 1, 2023. It's an improved version of the original SEER rating, designed to provide a more accurate representation of real-world energy consumption. While SEER measured efficiency based on laboratory conditions, SEER2 incorporates a new testing procedure that accounts for external static pressure, providing a truer reflection of how a system performs in a typical home environment.

In simple terms: A higher SEER2 rating means your air conditioning system is more efficient, using less electricity to achieve the same cooling power. This directly translates to lower energy bills for you.

Why SEER2 Matters for Texas Homeowners

Texas weather demands peak performance from your AC system. With relentless summers and unpredictable temperature swings, energy efficiency isn't just a luxury – it's a necessity.

• Combat High Energy Bills: Air conditioning can account for a significant portion of your home's energy consumption. Investing in a high-SEER2 system can dramatically reduce your monthly electricity costs, especially during peak summer months.
• Meet New Energy Standards: As of 2023, all new residential AC units installed in the South (including Texas) must meet new minimum SEER2 ratings. For systems under 45,000 BTU, the minimum is 14.3 SEER2 (up from 14 SEER). Systems 45,000 BTU and above require a minimum of 13.8 SEER2 (up from 13 SEER). Staying compliant means you're investing in a future-proof system.
• Enhanced Comfort: More efficient systems often operate more consistently, providing better dehumidification and more even temperatures throughout your home, leading to superior indoor comfort.
• Environmental Responsibility: Lower energy consumption means a smaller carbon footprint, contributing to a healthier environment.

Factors to Consider

• Home Size & Layout: Proper sizing is crucial for efficiency. An oversized or undersized unit will struggle to maintain comfort and waste energy.
• Insulation & Ductwork: A well-insulated home with sealed ductwork maximizes the efficiency of any HVAC system, allowing even lower SEER2 units to perform effectively.
• Budget vs. Long-Term Savings: While higher SEER2 systems may have a higher upfront cost, their long-term energy savings often lead to a lower total cost of ownership over the system's lifespan.
• Brand Preferences: We partner with leading manufacturers like Daikin and Goodman, offering a variety of reliable high-efficiency options.

Understanding Your Potential Savings

We can help you estimate the potential energy savings based on your current system's efficiency and your estimated usage. Many homeowners find that upgrading to a higher SEER2 system pays for itself over time through reduced utility bills.
