Lennox Energy Savings Calculator
Discover How Much You Can Save
Have you ever looked at your utility bill in the summer and wondered, “Why is it so high?” You’re not alone. Electricity rates across the U.S.—including here in Logan, Utah—have steadily climbed over the years. And if you’re cooling your home with an older air conditioning system, chances are you’re spending more than you need to.
The good news? There’s a simple way to estimate your energy savings before you even upgrade your system: the SEER Calculator.
At Mtn Valley Heating & Air Conditioning, we help homeowners across Cache Valley take control of their comfort and their utility bills. Whether you’re exploring energy-efficient air conditioners, heat pumps, or just trying to understand what SEER means, this page will walk you through everything you need to know—and show you how to use the Lennox Energy Savings Calculator to make smart, money-saving choices.
What Is SEER and Why Does It Matter?
SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio. It’s a measurement of how efficiently an air conditioner or heat pump cools your home. The higher the SEER rating, the more efficient the system is—and the more money you can save over time on electricity bills.
Think of SEER like miles-per-gallon for your car. A higher MPG vehicle gets you further on less fuel. A higher SEER air conditioner cools your home using less electricity.
Here in Logan, Utah, where summers can get hot and energy prices aren’t getting any cheaper, a high SEER system can make a big difference in your monthly budget.
Why Electricity Costs Keep Climbing
In 2006, the average price of electricity in the U.S. was just 10.40¢ per kilowatt-hour. By 2018, that jumped to 13.15¢ per kilowatt-hour, a 26% increase. And prices have continued to climb.
Now more than ever, upgrading to a high-efficiency HVAC system isn’t just about comfort—it’s about making a smart financial decision for your household. Using the SEER calculator in Logan, Utah, can show you just how much money you’re leaving on the table with an outdated system.
How Much Can You Really Save?
Let’s say your current AC is rated at 10 SEER, and your summer electric bill averages $200. If you upgrade to a 20 SEER unit, the Lennox SEER calculator might show a savings of 40–50% on cooling costs. That could be $80–$100 in monthly savings—which adds up fast over the course of a hot Cache Valley summer.
In many cases, those savings help offset the cost of a new HVAC system in just a few years. Plus, energy-efficient systems often qualify for local utility rebates and federal tax credits, saving you even more.
SEER Ratings: Old vs. New Systems
If your air conditioner or heat pump is over 10–15 years old, it likely has a much lower SEER rating than today’s systems. Here’s a quick comparison:
System Age | Typical SEER Rating | Efficiency Level |
---|---|---|
15+ years old | 8–10 SEER | Low (high energy use) |
10–15 years old | 11–13 SEER | Moderate |
New standard unit | 14–16 SEER | High efficiency |
Premium unit | 18–26+ SEER | Ultra high efficiency |
In Utah, all new central AC systems must meet a minimum of 14.3 SEER2 as of 2023 due to updated Department of Energy guidelines. That’s a big leap from older systems—and a big opportunity for energy savings.
