Welcome to our RUclips channel, where we dive deep into the world of air conditioning! In this enlightening video, we unravel the mysteries behind AC efficiency and shed light on the significance of SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) rating. Air conditioning is an essential part of our lives, especially during scorching summers and if you live anywhere hot and sweaty - you know what we're talking about! However, have you ever wondered how efficient your AC unit really is? That's where SEER rating comes into play. Join us as we embark on an educational journey, demystifying the concept of AC efficiency and its impact on both your comfort and energy bills. We'll explore the key factors that determine an air conditioner's efficiency, such as the technology behind it, insulation, and size considerations.
SEER rating, a crucial metric for AC efficiency, will take center stage in our discussion. We'll break down what SEER rating means, how it is calculated, and why it matters when choosing the right AC unit for your needs. From understanding the numerical scale to its impact on energy consumption, we'll provide you with the knowledge to make informed decisions.
But that's not all! We'll also delve into the benefits of investing in a high SEER-rated air conditioner, including potential energy savings and reduced carbon footprint. We'll discuss the long-term advantages of opting for a more efficient cooling system and highlight the incentives and rebates available to encourage energy-efficient choices. We'll also go over when it makes sense to get a lower SEER rated and less efficient AC, because the truth is that you might not need the most efficient AC possible, depending on your particular scenario. Whether you're a homeowner, renter, or simply interested in energy conservation, this video is for you. Gain a deeper understanding of AC efficiency, SEER rating, and how they intertwine to impact your comfort, expenses, and the environment.

Thank you for clarifying the myth of the 2 stage efficiency, yesterday I chose the basic 1 stage-14.3 Seer over the $2,500 pricier 2 stage because my research also concluded that the xtra $ only buys more comfort but not necessarily the higher efficiency claimed. My proof of this is the fact that there's absolutely no hard comparison data between 1 and 2 stage units to be found, but you can easily find charts and calculators when it comes to compare the different Seer ratings. If they were so efficient, manufacturers would rub that data all over your face. 😆
Your welcome! I agree it's hard to clarify. The only thing I've witnessed is first hand how efficient inverters are like the Daikin Fit or VRV / VRF units because I can measure the amp draw on start up and they are MUCH more efficient...
Thanks for your great information!
Our pleasure thanks for watching!
Thank you for your presentation. I live in Tucson, AZ. It helped me choose my 14 SEER2 3 ton single stage unit. I was wondering whether I needed the 2 stage unit. But you answered that question very well.
Glad I could help!
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it thank you!
Can you do a video on standby or phantom load on some of your systems like the Diakin? I heard some inverter systems while efficient while running but when not running use like 50 watts all the time.
That's an interesting point I've not heard about inverters. Familiar with phantom power but not specific to inverters... I guess I could hook up a meter to the circuit and watch it for a month. A video like "is phantom power jacking up your electric bill?" might be interesting... in the summer there's not much "phantom" usage right now though, lol it's pretty much on 24/7
Looking for a new 18kBTU Mitsubishi mini split for my garage in SoCal. Deciding between a 16, 18 and 22 SEER. Is it worth it to go for the 22 SEER which is $1,000 more than the 16 SEER? Am I getting more features in the 22 SEER over the 16 SEER. Will I save enough in the efficiency to justify the added cost? Thanks.
Depends how much you run it but the 18 or 22 seer will just be quieter probably but check the specs it will tell you decibel ratings. SEER is actually a formula so it’s definitely more efficient, if you wanted a “ballpark” I’d say 20% less to operate ? But would have to see the specs… if it’s just for a garage I would probably get the cheaper one but that’s just me
my home equipped with 10 seer single stage system. i was eyeing for high seer system which was two stage system. my contractor told me cost to high because it a total different ducking system. (diameter). to stay one stage system. it that true?
No that’s not true, I would get a second opinion. You might have undersized ductwork but inverter or multistage systems have the same ducting requirements as single stage systems. Sizing of ducts comes down to what tonnage of equipment the ductwork can support
i feel like im getting robbed here. I got a estimate on AC. here in southern california. They quote me at 6k for a AC ONLY Condenser & Evaporator (410a upgrade): INCLUDES:- AC PRO 14-16 SEER Single Stage Condensing Unit.. i need help. WTF is a AC PRO AC. i really like the zoning technology.
Sounds like a generic brand, not a bad price but just a basic generic single stage system probably. If that’s the brand it’s probably just a private label
