What is the SEER2 rating of the Haier QS15H24HA5?

The Haier QS15H24HA5 is rated at up to 17.5 SEER2 and 9.3 EER2 for cooling and up to 8.9 HSPF2 for heating. The exact figure depends on the indoor unit it is paired with; across its 113 certified matchups SEER2 ranges from 15.2-17.5.

Is the Haier QS15H24HA5 good for cold climates?

Yes. At least one certified matchup meets the ENERGY STAR cold-climate criteria, delivering up to 18,900 BTU/h at 5°F with a COP of 1.90, so it is still 1.9 times as efficient as electric resistance heat at that temperature.

How much does the Haier QS15H24HA5 cost to run per year?

At its rated efficiency it costs about $628-$1,676 a year in electricity in large U.S. cities, depending on climate and local rates - for example $774 in Phoenix and $1,400 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 QS15H24HA5?

ENERGY STAR lists 113 certified combinations for this outdoor unit. The highest-rated ones use NAM24E1TA5, NCHC30BT5****+TDR, NAM30V3TA5.

Questions5

What is the SEER2 rating of the Haier QS15H24HA5?: The Haier QS15H24HA5 is rated at up to 17.5 SEER2 and 9.3 EER2 for cooling and up to 8.9 HSPF2 for heating. The exact figure depends on the indoor unit it is paired with; across its 113 certified matchups SEER2 ranges from 15.2-17.5.
Is the Haier QS15H24HA5 good for cold climates?: Yes. At least one certified matchup meets the ENERGY STAR cold-climate criteria, delivering up to 18,900 BTU/h at 5°F with a COP of 1.90, so it is still 1.9 times as efficient as electric resistance heat at that temperature.
How much does the Haier QS15H24HA5 cost to run per year?: At its rated efficiency it costs about $628-$1,676 a year in electricity in large U.S. cities, depending on climate and local rates - for example $774 in Phoenix and $1,400 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 QS15H24HA5?: ENERGY STAR lists 113 certified combinations for this outdoor unit. The highest-rated ones use NAM24E1TA5, NCHC30BT5****+TDR, NAM30V3TA5.
What refrigerant does the Haier QS15H24HA5 use?: It uses R-454B.
