In the United States, the efficiency of air conditioners is often rated by the seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) which is defined by the Air Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute, a trade association, in its 2008 standard AHRI 210/240, Performance Rating of Unitary Air-Conditioning and Air-Source Heat Pump Equipment.

An electrical resistance heater, which is not considered efficient, has an HSPF of 3.41. [3] Depending on the system, an HSPF ≥ 9 can be considered high efficiency and worthy of a US Energy Tax Credit. [4] For instance, a system which delivers an HSPF of 7.7 will transfer 2.25 times as much heat as electricity consumed over a season. [5]
ecobee is a Canadian-founded home automation company that makes smart thermostats, temperature, and occupancy sensors, smart light switches, smart cameras, and contact sensors. [2] They were acquired by the American company Generac Holdings in 2021.
The heat pump itself can be improved by increasing the size of the internal heat exchangers, which in turn increases the efficiency (and the cost) relative to the power of the compressor, and also by reducing the system's internal temperature gap over the compressor. Obviously, this latter measure makes some heat pumps unsuitable to produce ...
This historic heat pump heated the town hall for 63 years until 2001. Only then was it replaced by a new, more efficient heat pump. [14] 1945 John Sumner, City Electrical Engineer for Norwich, installs an experimental water-source heat pump fed central heating system, using a nearby river to heat new Council administrative buildings. It had a ...
A Canadian woman allegedly attempted to smuggle 22 pounds of methamphetamine wrapped as Christmas presents through a New Zealand airport on Sunday, Dec. 8.
Remove the turkey from the oven completely (closing the door so it doesn't lose heat). Insert the instant-read thermometer into thickest part of the thigh without touching the bone. Wait until the ...
