      A good fit if…

      • Your winters get properly cold - it is ENERGY STAR cold-climate certified, with 8,200 BTU/h at 5°F.
      • It will heat most of the year - its HSPF2 beats 95% of packaged heat pumps.
      • You want steady temperatures and quiet running - the compressor varies its speed.

      Think twice if…

      • Nothing stands out - its ratings have no weak spot for its class.

      Questions5
      What is the SEER2 rating of the Ephoca AVK19N3H2?
      The Ephoca AVK19N3H2 is rated at up to 15.4 SEER2 and 11.7 EER2 for cooling and up to 9.2 HSPF2 for heating. The exact figure depends on the indoor unit it is paired with.
      Is the Ephoca AVK19N3H2 good for cold climates?
      Yes. At least one certified matchup meets the ENERGY STAR cold-climate criteria, delivering up to 8,200 BTU/h at 5°F with a COP of 2.30, so it is still 2.3 times as efficient as electric resistance heat at that temperature.
      How much does the Ephoca AVK19N3H2 cost to run per year?
      At its rated efficiency it costs about $354-$969 a year in electricity in large U.S. cities, depending on climate and local rates - for example $440 in Phoenix and $812 in Minneapolis. The calculator on this page works it out for your city and compares it with your current system.
      Is the Ephoca AVK19N3H2 the same as the Ephoca AVK19N4H2?
      Yes, as far as the certified ratings go. ENERGY STAR lists 26 model numbers with identical efficiency, capacity and matchups, which means the same outdoor unit sold under a different brand or with a minor variant code (voltage, colour or region). The full list is on this page.
      What refrigerant does the Ephoca AVK19N3H2 use?
      It uses R-32.

      Estimates use the unit's rated SEER2 and HSPF2, full-load hours derived from NOAA 1991-2020 degree days, average residential electricity prices from the U.S. EIA (12 months to July 2026) and fuel prices from EIA (2025 for natural gas, week of 2026-10-05 for propane and heating oil). Very cold days that need backup heat are not modelled. Federal minimum for comparison: 14.3 SEER2 / 7.5 HSPF2.
