Effective January 1, 2023, cooling products will be subject to regional minimum efficiencies, according to Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio 2 (SEER2). New M1 testing procedure [7] is designed to better reflect current field conditions. DOE increases systems' external static pressure from current SEER (0.1 in. of water) to SEER2 (0.5 in. of water).
A similar standard in the United States is the integrated energy efficiency ratio (IEER). The ESEER is calculated by combining full and part load operating Energy Efficiency Ratios (EER), for different seasonal air or water temperatures, and including for appropriate weighting factors. These values are shown in the following table.
DOAS Diagram. Moisture Removal Efficiency (MRE) is a measure of the energy efficiency of any dehumidification process. Moisture removal efficiency is the water vapor removed from air at a defined inlet air temperature and humidity, divided by the total energy consumed by the dehumidification equipment during the same time period, including all fan and pump energy needed to move air and fluids ...
A realistic indication of energy efficiency over an entire year can be achieved by using seasonal COP or seasonal coefficient of performance (SCOP) for heat. Seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) is mostly used for air conditioning. SCOP is a new methodology which gives a better indication of expected real-life performance of heat pump ...
SEER—seasonal E efficiency ratio; SHGC—solar heat gain coefficient; SIR—savings-to-investment ratio (energy conservation investments) SLA—Specific leakage area; SPB—Simple Payback (energy conservation investments) SSE—steady-state efficiency; U-value—thermal transmittance (also called U-factor) WF—water factor (clothes washers)
Standards ARI 210 and 240 define Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) and Heating Seasonal Performance Factors (HSPF) to account for the impact of seasonal variations on air source heat pumps. These numbers are normally not applicable and should not be compared to ground source heat pump ratings.
This indicator can be used to describe the predictive accuracy of other models as long as there is observed data to compare the model results to. For example, Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency has been reported in scientific literature for model simulations of discharge; water quality constituents such as sediment, nitrogen, and phosphorus loading.

A heat pump's operating performance in cooling mode is characterized in the US by either its energy efficiency ratio (EER) or seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER), both of which have units of BTU/(h·W) (note that 1 BTU/(h·W) = 0.293 W/W) and larger values indicate better performance.
