Questions5
What is the SEER2 rating of the Lennox MMLD024S6M-1P?
The Lennox MMLD024S6M-1P is rated at up to 23.0 SEER2 and 14.6 EER2 for cooling and up to 10.4 HSPF2 for heating. The exact figure depends on the indoor unit it is paired with; across its 3 certified matchups SEER2 ranges from 20.0-23.0.
Is the Lennox MMLD024S6M-1P good for cold climates?
Yes. At least one certified matchup meets the ENERGY STAR cold-climate criteria, delivering up to 25,000 BTU/h at 5°F with a COP of 1.85, so it is still 1.9 times as efficient as electric resistance heat at that temperature.
How much does the Lennox MMLD024S6M-1P cost to run per year?
At its rated efficiency it costs about $513-$1,489 a year in electricity in large U.S. cities, depending on climate and local rates - for example $648 in Phoenix and $1,257 in Minneapolis. The calculator on this page works it out for your city and compares it with your current system.
Is the Lennox MMLD024S6M-1P the same as the Samsung AJ024DXS4CG?
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.
What refrigerant does the Lennox MMLD024S6M-1P use?
It uses 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.
