1. Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) is a measure of air-cooling efficiency. A higher SEER rating indicates
a more energy-efficient unit. The government’s established minimum rating for air conditioning is 10.
2. Heating Season Performance Factor (HSPF) is a measure of air-heating efficiency. A higher HSPF rating
indicates a more energy efficient unit.
3. Versus operating your 15-year or older 6 SEER 3-ton unit.

Innovation Inside and Out
A replacement heat
pump system with
higher efficiency than
your existing system can
dramatically lower operating costs. Available with
energy efficiency ratings of 12 thru 18 SEER and
HSPF ratings of 7.4 thru 8.5 and above, Affinity
series heat pumps are double the efficiency over
many older units. Factor in higher reliability and
reduced service costs, and the Affinity can pay for
itself quickly. York technology keeps your home in
the comfort zone—consistently and efficiently—
and with better circulation and fewer hot or cold spots.
A stamped full metal coil guard
and polymer mesh provides the
ultimate in coil protection
Available in 8T models, the new
York QuietDrive
™ System utilizes
a swept-wing fan design, isolated
compressor compartment, composite
base pan and two-stage cooling to
provide quieter operation and more
energy efficient performance.
To Use The Map and Chart:
Using the map, locate the zone you live in. Determine the
SEER/HSPF of your current system. Cross-reference your zone and
current SEER/HSPF in the table to determine your approximate
annual cooling/heating costs. The difference between your current
cost and that of a higher-SEER/HSPF unit is your estimated annual savings.
(Based on 2001 DOE national average price for electricity [0.0837/kwh].
Assuming the use of 36,000 BTU nominal capacity. Information derived using
Elite Energy Audit Program. Cooling based on Bin data. Operating cost based
on 2,100 sq. ft. and occupancy of 4 people. Actual savings may vary.)
