Glossary · HVAC terms defined
Speak HVAC like a pro
- AFUE
- A furnace's heating-efficiency rating. The higher it is, the more of the fuel you buy ends up as heat in your home.
- SEER2
- The rating used to compare cooling efficiency between air conditioners and heat pumps. Higher is more efficient.
- HSPF2
- The same idea as SEER2, but for how efficiently a heat pump heats.
- Heat pump
- An all-electric system that moves heat rather than burning fuel, so it both heats and cools a home.
- Tonnage
- A measure of how much cooling capacity a system has. Bigger is not automatically better — it has to match the house.
- BTU
- The standard unit for measuring heating or cooling energy.
- MERV
- An air-filter rating. A higher MERV filter captures smaller particles, but also restricts airflow more.
- Manual J
- The load calculation used to size equipment for your specific home rather than guessing from square footage.
- Variable-speed
- A compressor or blower that adjusts its output instead of simply switching on and off, for steadier temperatures.
- Air handler
- The indoor unit that moves conditioned air through your ductwork.
