What is an air conditioner packaged HVAC system?

A packaged HVAC system is a heating and cooling system that fits all necessary equipment into one cabinet. While split system air conditioners will have one indoor unit and one outdoor unit, packaged system air conditioners fit everything needed to cool your home in just one outdoor unit. This allows homeowners to save space inside, plus makes for easy installation and maintenance.

What's a good SEER2 rating for your air conditioner packaged system?

SEER2 , or Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio, measures the efficiency of your air conditioner packaged system. SEER2 ratings are regulated by the federal government, and have recently been updated to more accurately reflect real world testing conditions. Good SEER2 ratings vary depending on region and system, so be sure to talk to your local Trane dealer to determine the best one for you.

How much can you save?

Upgrading your system to a higher SEER rating can help you save on your monthly energy costs. Lower energy usage can also help protect the environment for future generations.

An image with text stating the average AC system has 10 SEER and the XV20i TruComfort Variable Speed Air Conditioner has 22 SEER.

*The majority of systems installed prior to 2006 are 10 SEER or lower. For this example, the air conditioner has a SEER rating of up to 20 SEER. Potential energy savings may vary depending on your lifestyle, system settings, equipment maintenance, local climate, home construction and installation of equipment and duct system.

**Savings based on national averages.
