Questions
- What is the SEER2 rating of the Multi MFG 12SPV0-HP-X-D?
- The Multi MFG 12SPV0-HP-X-D is rated at up to 17.1 SEER2 and 10.5 EER2 for cooling and up to 8.6 HSPF2 for heating. The exact figure depends on the indoor unit it is paired with.
- Is the Multi MFG 12SPV0-HP-X-D good for cold climates?
- Yes. At least one certified matchup meets the ENERGY STAR cold-climate criteria, delivering up to 9,000 BTU/h at 5°F with a COP of 2.00, so it is still 2.0 times as efficient as electric resistance heat at that temperature.
- How much does the Multi MFG 12SPV0-HP-X-D cost to run per year?
- At its rated efficiency it costs about $330-$881 a year in electricity in large U.S. cities, depending on climate and local rates - for example $406 in Phoenix and $736 in Minneapolis. The calculator on this page works it out for your city and compares it with your current system.
- What refrigerant does the Multi MFG 12SPV0-HP-X-D use?
- It uses R-454B.
