Questions
- What is the SEER2 rating of the AC Pro SPHP-Y-V060BB?
- The AC Pro SPHP-Y-V060BB is rated at up to 15.5 SEER2 and 8.5 EER2 for cooling and up to 8.6 HSPF2 for heating. The exact figure depends on the indoor unit it is paired with; across its 2 certified matchups SEER2 ranges from 15.2-15.5.
- Is the AC Pro SPHP-Y-V060BB good for cold climates?
- Yes. At least one certified matchup meets the ENERGY STAR cold-climate criteria, delivering up to 40,000 BTU/h at 5°F with a COP of 1.80, so it is still 1.8 times as efficient as electric resistance heat at that temperature.
- How much does the AC Pro SPHP-Y-V060BB cost to run per year?
- At its rated efficiency it costs about $1,632-$4,045 a year in electricity in large U.S. cities, depending on climate and local rates - for example $1,968 in Phoenix and $3,346 in Minneapolis. The calculator on this page works it out for your city and compares it with your current system.
