      A good fit if…

      • Your winters get properly cold - it is ENERGY STAR cold-climate certified, with 27,000 BTU/h at 5°F.
      • You want steady temperatures and quiet running - the compressor varies its speed.

      Think twice if…

      • You want the newest refrigerant - it uses R-410A, which is being phased down.

      Questions4
      What is the SEER2 rating of the Kepler ODUM3OK-27HFN1-M?
      The Kepler ODUM3OK-27HFN1-M is rated at up to 23.0 SEER2 and 12.5 EER2 for cooling and up to 10.6 HSPF2 for heating. The exact figure depends on the indoor unit it is paired with; across its 6 certified matchups SEER2 ranges from 19.0-23.0.
      Is the Kepler ODUM3OK-27HFN1-M good for cold climates?
      Yes. At least one certified matchup meets the ENERGY STAR cold-climate criteria, delivering up to 27,000 BTU/h at 5°F with a COP of 1.80, so it is still 1.8 times as efficient as electric resistance heat at that temperature.
      How much does the Kepler ODUM3OK-27HFN1-M cost to run per year?
      At its rated efficiency it costs about $574-$1,642 a year in electricity in large U.S. cities, depending on climate and local rates - for example $722 in Phoenix and $1,383 in Minneapolis. The calculator on this page works it out for your city and compares it with your current system.
      What refrigerant does the Kepler ODUM3OK-27HFN1-M 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.

      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.
