What is the SEER2 rating of the KERR A-KMH24SU-1A?

The KERR A-KMH24SU-1A is rated at up to 20.5 SEER2 and 11.7 EER2 for cooling and up to 11.0 HSPF2 for heating. The exact figure depends on the indoor unit it is paired with; across its 4 certified matchups SEER2 ranges from 18.9-20.5.

Is the KERR A-KMH24SU-1A 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 2.10, so it is still 2.1 times as efficient as electric resistance heat at that temperature.

How much does the KERR A-KMH24SU-1A cost to run per year?

At its rated efficiency it costs about $550-$1,442 a year in electricity in large U.S. cities, depending on climate and local rates - for example $674 in Phoenix and $1,202 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 KERR A-KMH24SU-1A?

ENERGY STAR lists 4 certified combinations for this outdoor unit. The highest-rated ones use B-KMH24UU-1, B-KMH24DU-1, B-KMH24SU-1.

What refrigerant does the KERR A-KMH24SU-1A 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.

A good fit if…

Your winters get properly cold - it is ENERGY STAR cold-climate certified, with 27,000 BTU/h at 5°F.
It will heat most of the year - its HSPF2 beats 75% of mini-splits.
You want steady temperatures and quiet running - the compressor varies its speed.

Think twice if…

Cooling cost matters most - its SEER2 is below average for mini-splits.
You want the newest refrigerant - it uses R-410A, which is being phased down.
