Additional Details
Selecting the right system for your home has never been more important. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, heating and cooling account for up to 56 percent of energy used in a typical U.S. home, making it the largest energy expense for most homes.
Fortunately, there are now a wide variety of energy-efficient air conditioners available to cool your home. In addition, many of these systems have supporting equipment in common, such as thermostats and ducts, which provide opportunities for more energy savings. An ENERGY STAR certified central air conditioner is 15 percent more efficient than a standard system. Those savings can add up.

A matched assembly is a model combination that is listed in the AHRI Directory of Certified Equipment.
