Energy efficiency

ICP is a partner in the Energy  Star program, which was initiated by the Department of Energy (DOE) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The cost of operating an AC is directly related to its efficiency.

The DOE minimum efficiency for heating and cooling units is 13 SEER, which provides a 23 percent savings in energy costs compared to a traditional heat pump with 10 SEER.

A unit with 14 SEER provides a savings of 28 percent and a unit with 15 SEER reduces the unit's operating expenses by 33 percent.

A 16-SEER unit saves 37 percent compared to a 10-SEER unit, and a 17-SEER unit provides a savings of 41 percent. Consider these costs savings when calculating the installation estimate for these units.
