What is the SEER2 rating of the Friedrich FRP15AY60AJ2N?

The Friedrich FRP15AY60AJ2N is rated at up to 15.2 SEER2 and 11.7 EER2 for cooling and up to 7.8 HSPF2 for heating. The exact figure depends on the indoor unit it is paired with.

Is the Friedrich FRP15AY60AJ2N good for cold climates?

It is not cold-climate certified: none of its matchups meet the ENERGY STAR cold-climate criteria (a COP of at least 1.75 at 5°F among other limits). In places with frequent sub-zero nights, pick a cold-climate 5-ton model.

How much does the Friedrich FRP15AY60AJ2N cost to run per year?

At its rated efficiency it costs about $1,760-$4,536 a year in electricity in large U.S. cities, depending on climate and local rates - for example $2,146 in Phoenix and $3,772 in Minneapolis. The calculator on this page works it out for your city and compares it with your current system.

Is the Friedrich FRP15AY60AJ2N the same as the Friedrich FWP15AY60AJ2N?

Yes, as far as the certified ratings go. ENERGY STAR lists both 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.

Which indoor units work with the Friedrich FRP15AY60AJ2N?

ENERGY STAR lists 17 certified combinations for this outdoor unit. The highest-rated ones use FRH2TY6024STANN, TCFY6021STAAM, TCFY6024STANM.
