      A good fit if…

      • You want steady temperatures and quiet running - the compressor varies its speed.

      Think twice if…

      • You often see nights below 0°F - it is not cold-climate certified.

      Questions4
      What is the SEER2 rating of the TOSHIBA CARRIER MCY-MUB0608HS2P-UL?
      The TOSHIBA CARRIER MCY-MUB0608HS2P-UL is rated at up to 23.3 SEER2 and 12.2 EER2 for cooling and up to 10.4 HSPF2 for heating. The exact figure depends on the indoor unit it is paired with.
      Is the TOSHIBA CARRIER MCY-MUB0608HS2P-UL good for cold climates?
      It is not cold-climate certified: none of its matchups meet the ENERGY STAR cold-climate criteria (a COP of at least 1.75 at 5°F among other limits). In places with frequent sub-zero nights, pick a cold-climate 60,000 BTU model.
      How much does the TOSHIBA CARRIER MCY-MUB0608HS2P-UL cost to run per year?
      At its rated efficiency it costs about $1,221-$3,788 a year in electricity in large U.S. cities, depending on climate and local rates - for example $1,578 in Phoenix and $3,221 in Minneapolis. The calculator on this page works it out for your city and compares it with your current system.
      What refrigerant does the TOSHIBA CARRIER MCY-MUB0608HS2P-UL use?
      It uses R-454B.

      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.
