You want your home to be comfortable year round. During times of extreme heat or cold, questions about energy costs can arise - but balancing comfort and cost in your home doesn't have to be difficult. It's a matter of measuring, managing, and understanding SEER. 

Your home's cooling system is rated by SEER, or Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio. It is a measure of a unit's maximum efficiency, similar to the miles per gallon (MPG) of your car - the higher the number, the more efficient it is. A low SEER rating of your home's cooling system indicates that you're not as efficient as you could be.

With as much as half of the energy used in your home going to heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), it's important to have a system with higher SEER for greater energy efficiency and MORE savings.
Regardless of your HVAC SEER rating, replacing your unit with one rated higher can lower energy costs - as much as 5 to 10 percent, when everything is installed correctly.

Getting the savings associated with a higher-SEER unit might require a higher initial investment. That's  here West Florida Electric Cooperative (WFEC) can help. We're powering savings by helping our members save on the cost to purchase certain high-efficiency heat pumps through our rebate program. We're offering rebates of up to $350 per ton to members who purchase energy-efficient, dual-fuel or mini-split
models.

It's our way of rewarding your efforts to be more energy-efficient. These dual fuel and mini-split systems may be installed in a manufactured home or a stick-built home.
