SEER 13
On January 23, 2006 the federal minimum efficiency standard for
new central air conditioners made in the U.S. was raised to 13
SEER – a 30% increase over the last standard.
All
Home Comfort will continue to service units not
meeting the minimum standards. The new standard only applies to
systems manufactured after January 23, 2006.
- Today’s 13 SEER minimum efficiency law is just the latest
challenge in an ever changing energy conscious environment.
- Annual maintenance during the heating and cooling seasons
will ensure your unit operates efficiently. All
Home Comfort,
Comfort Club™
Planned Maintenance Service
helps to ensure your system operates at peak efficiency all
year long.
- Systems installed prior to 1992 could be highly
inefficient by today’s standards. Current units rated less
than 13 SEER may continue operating for years. However, once
the industry depletes the supply of compatible parts,
breakdown of units less than 13 SEER that cannot be repaired
will require an upgrade to 13 SEER or higher.
- All Home Comfort is your SEER 13 expert.
Ask us today to find out what this change will mean to you.
You can also obtain additional information online through the
Department of Energy at

- Once your unit is 13 SEER or above efficient, it’s likely you will
see real savings on your energy consumption.
