Discover Your Heat Pump Savings Potential
Are you thinking about upgrading your heat pump but wondering if it’s worth the investment? Our Heat Pump Savings Calculator takes the guesswork out of your decision by showing you exactly how much you could save with a more efficient system. This powerful tool uses industry-standard SEER² and HSPF² ratings to calculate real-world energy savings, helping you make informed decisions about your home’s heating and cooling system.
Ready to see how upgrading your heat pump can save you money and boost comfort? Use our calculator below to estimate your potential savings or contact our experts for a personalized consultation.
Understanding SEER² and HSPF² Ratings
Think of efficiency ratings like miles per gallon for your car. They tell you how much energy your heat pump uses to keep your home comfortable.
- SEER² (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio squared) measures how efficiently your heat pump cools your home during the hot summer months. The higher the SEER² number, the less electricity your system needs to run the air conditioner.
- HSPF² (Heating Seasonal Performance Factor squared) measures how efficiently your heat pump heats your home during the colder months. A higher HSPF² means your system uses less energy to keep you warm.
Together, these ratings reflect your heat pump’s overall performance throughout the year, helping you understand both cooling and heating efficiency.
Here’s what this means for your wallet: For example, a heat pump with a SEER² rating of 16 uses significantly less electricity than one rated at 13. Over the course of a year, that difference can add up to substantial savings on your energy bills.
Heat Pump Efficiency Rating Guide
Heat pump efficiency ratings show how well your system cools in summer and heats in winter. Higher ratings mean better performance and more savings. Check the guide below to see what ratings to look for and how they affect your energy bills.
Rating Type | What It Measures | Good Rating | Excellent Rating | Impact on Bills |
SEER² | Summer cooling efficiency | 14 to 16 | 18+ | 15 to 25% savings |
HSPF² | Winter heating efficiency | 8.5 to 9.5 | 10+ | 20 to 30% savings |
Combined | Year-round performance | Both above average | Both Excellent | 25 to 40% savings |
How Our Heat Pump Savings Calculator Works
Using our Heat Pump Savings Calculator is simple and takes less than two minutes. The calculator compares your current system’s energy consumption against newer, more efficient models, showing projected savings broken down by season.
Step-by-Step Process:
Here’s a quick breakdown of the steps you’ll need to take in order to correctly calculate your SEER² and/or HSPF² Savings:
- Enter your current heat pump’s SEER² and HSPF² ratings (usually found on the unit’s label or manual)
- Input the efficiency ratings of the new system you’re considering
- Add your approximate home size and local utility rates
- Get instant estimates showing your potential annual savings in both dollars and energy usage
The calculator does the heavy lifting, using advanced algorithms that account for typical usage patterns, seasonal variations, and local climate data. You’ll receive a comprehensive breakdown showing exactly where your savings come from.
Sample Savings Scenarios*
Here’s a quick sample to show you how your new system can provide more energy efficiency and help reduce your heating/cooling costs.
Current System | New System | Home Size | Annual Savings | Monthly Savings | Payback Period |
13 SEER², 8.2 HSPF² | 16 SEER², 9.5 HSPF² | 1,800 sq ft | $480 | $40 | 8.5 years |
14 SEER², 8.5 HSPF² | 18 SEER², 10 HSPF² | 2,200 sq ft | $620 | $52 | 8.2 years |
12 SEER², 7.8 HSPF² | 20 SEER², 10.5 HSPF² | 2,800 sq ft | $890 | $74 | 7.8 years |
