What is the SEER2 rating of the Haier 1U36T3PC*HE?

The Haier 1U36T3PC*HE is rated at up to 19.0 SEER2 and 11.7 EER2 for cooling and up to 9.5 HSPF2 for heating. The exact figure depends on the indoor unit it is paired with; across its 177 certified matchups SEER2 ranges from 15.2-19.0.

Is the Haier 1U36T3PC*HE good for cold climates?

Yes. At least one certified matchup meets the ENERGY STAR cold-climate criteria, delivering up to 30,000 BTU/h at 5°F with a COP of 1.95, so it is still 2.0 times as efficient as electric resistance heat at that temperature.

How much does the Haier 1U36T3PC*HE cost to run per year?

At its rated efficiency it costs about $847-$2,347 a year in electricity in large U.S. cities, depending on climate and local rates - for example $1,056 in Phoenix and $1,969 in Minneapolis. The calculator on this page works it out for your city and compares it with your current system.

Which indoor units work with the Haier 1U36T3PC*HE?

ENERGY STAR lists 177 certified combinations for this outdoor unit. The highest-rated ones use NAM42V2TA5, NCHC30AT5****+TDR, NAM36V2TA5.

A good fit if…

You want low cooling bills - its SEER2 beats 85% of central heat pumps.
Your winters get properly cold - it is ENERGY STAR cold-climate certified, with 30,000 BTU/h at 5°F.
It will heat most of the year - its HSPF2 beats 70% of central 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 Haier 1U36T3PC*HE?: The Haier 1U36T3PC*HE is rated at up to 19.0 SEER2 and 11.7 EER2 for cooling and up to 9.5 HSPF2 for heating. The exact figure depends on the indoor unit it is paired with; across its 177 certified matchups SEER2 ranges from 15.2-19.0.
Is the Haier 1U36T3PC*HE good for cold climates?: Yes. At least one certified matchup meets the ENERGY STAR cold-climate criteria, delivering up to 30,000 BTU/h at 5°F with a COP of 1.95, so it is still 2.0 times as efficient as electric resistance heat at that temperature.
How much does the Haier 1U36T3PC*HE cost to run per year?: At its rated efficiency it costs about $847-$2,347 a year in electricity in large U.S. cities, depending on climate and local rates - for example $1,056 in Phoenix and $1,969 in Minneapolis. The calculator on this page works it out for your city and compares it with your current system.
Which indoor units work with the Haier 1U36T3PC*HE?: ENERGY STAR lists 177 certified combinations for this outdoor unit. The highest-rated ones use NAM42V2TA5, NCHC30AT5****+TDR, NAM36V2TA5.
What refrigerant does the Haier 1U36T3PC*HE use?: It uses R-454B.
