What is the SEER2 rating of the Concord 4DHP2S18M-1P?

The Concord 4DHP2S18M-1P is rated at up to 22.9 SEER2 and 13.9 EER2 for cooling and up to 10.5 HSPF2 for heating. The exact figure depends on the indoor unit it is paired with; across its 18 certified matchups SEER2 ranges from 19.0-22.9.

Is the Concord 4DHP2S18M-1P good for cold climates?

Yes. At least one certified matchup meets the ENERGY STAR cold-climate criteria, delivering up to 13,300 BTU/h at 5°F with a COP of 2.00, so it is still 2.0 times as efficient as electric resistance heat at that temperature.

How much does the Concord 4DHP2S18M-1P cost to run per year?

At its rated efficiency it costs about $371-$1,113 a year in electricity in large U.S. cities, depending on climate and local rates - for example $474 in Phoenix and $943 in Minneapolis. The calculator on this page works it out for your city and compares it with your current system.

What refrigerant does the Concord 4DHP2S18M-1P use?

It uses R-410A. R-410A is being phased down under the EPA AIM Act, and new systems are moving to R-454B and R-32.
