What is the SEER2 rating of the MDV MOD30-24HFN1-MU0W?

The MDV MOD30-24HFN1-MU0W is rated at up to 22.3 SEER2 and 12.5 EER2 for cooling and up to 11.5 HSPF2 for heating. The exact figure depends on the indoor unit it is paired with; across its 19 certified matchups SEER2 ranges from 15.2-22.3.

Is the MDV MOD30-24HFN1-MU0W 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 2.21, so it is still 2.2 times as efficient as electric resistance heat at that temperature.

How much does the MDV MOD30-24HFN1-MU0W cost to run per year?

At its rated efficiency it costs about $506-$1,369 a year in electricity in large U.S. cities, depending on climate and local rates - for example $626 in Phoenix and $1,146 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 MDV MOD30-24HFN1-MU0W?

ENERGY STAR lists 19 certified combinations for this outdoor unit. The highest-rated ones use MSAG11D-23HRFN1-MU0W, MSEPD-24HRFN1-MU0W, ECO-AIR MSEPD-24HRFN1-MU0W.

What refrigerant does the MDV MOD30-24HFN1-MU0W 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.
