Air conditioners sold in the United States are given a seasonal energy-efficiency ratio (SEERSEER) rating that consumers can use to compare different models. A SEERSEER rating is the ratio of heat pumped to energy input, similar to a COPCOP but using English units, so a higher SEERSEER rating means a more efficient model. You can determine the COPCOP of an air conditioner by dividing the SEERSEER rating by 3.4. Required:
For typical inside and outside temperatures when you'd be using air conditioning, estimate the theoretical maximum SEER rating if an air conditioner.
