On Choosing a Heat Pump System

Rheem offers one of the more comprehensive, feature-loaded lineups in the heating industry, all while maintaining high quality energy ratings. Naturally, energy efficiency is important, but when making your selection, remember low operating costs are little comfort if service and repair bills are high. Don’t be sold on energy efficiency alone. Rheem is the only manufacturer to install the Compliant Scroll® Compressor, considered an industry best, in its entire residential heat pump line.

What Should I Know About SEER and HSPF?

The higher the SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Rating) or HSPF (Heating Seasonal Performance Factor) rating, the more efficient the heat pump. High-efficiency units cost more. But since operating costs are lower, the payback period may be shorter than you realize. A high SEER/HSPF heat pump also can add value to your home which is important to today’s energy-conscious home buyers.

Rheem doesn't list its heat pump prices for direct sale to homeowners. The company sells the units wholesale to contractors, who then sell and install the units to homeowners as part of a package deal. However, we can give you a rough idea of the expected Rheem heat pump prices. Please note that these prices can vary depending on location and other factors.
