Energy Consumption
Air conditioners are rated by the number of British Thermal Units (Btu) of heat they can remove per hour. Another common rating term for air conditioning size is the "ton," which is 12,000 Btu per hour. Room air conditioners range from 5,500 Btu per hour to 14,000 Btu per hour.

Energy Efficiency
Today's best air conditioners use 30% to 50% less energy than 1970s Even if your air conditioner is only 10 years old, you may save 20% to 40% of your cooling energy costs by replacing it with a newer, more efficient model
18
Energy Efficiency
Rating is based on how many Btu per hour are removed for each watt of power it draws For room air conditioners, this efficiency rating is the Energy Efficiency Ratio, or EER For central air conditioners, it is the Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio, or SEER

Central AC
National minimum standards for central air conditioners require a SEER of
9.7 for single-package and 10.0 for split-systems Units are available with SEERs reaching nearly 17
