What is the SEER2 rating of the Breeze33 BZ33-HYP18OUT2-G2-P?

The Breeze33 BZ33-HYP18OUT2-G2-P is rated at up to 21.5 SEER2 and 12.5 EER2 for cooling and up to 11.3 HSPF2 for heating. The exact figure depends on the indoor unit it is paired with; across its 6 certified matchups SEER2 ranges from 17.6-21.5.

Is the Breeze33 BZ33-HYP18OUT2-G2-P good for cold climates?

Yes. At least one certified matchup meets the ENERGY STAR cold-climate criteria, delivering up to 18,000 BTU/h at 5°F with a COP of 2.00, so it is still 2.0 times as efficient as electric resistance heat at that temperature.

How much does the Breeze33 BZ33-HYP18OUT2-G2-P cost to run per year?

At its rated efficiency it costs about $372-$1,049 a year in electricity in large U.S. cities, depending on climate and local rates - for example $466 in Phoenix and $882 in Minneapolis. The calculator on this page works it out for your city and compares it with your current system.

Which indoor units work with the Breeze33 BZ33-HYP18OUT2-G2-P?

ENERGY STAR lists 6 certified combinations for this outdoor unit. The highest-rated ones use BZ33-HYP18WALL2-G2-P, BZ33-IFMU18-P, BZ33-CASS18-P.

What refrigerant does the Breeze33 BZ33-HYP18OUT2-G2-P use?

It uses R-410A. R-410A is being phased down under the EPA AIM Act, and new systems are moving to R-454B and R-32.

A good fit if…

Your winters get properly cold - it is ENERGY STAR cold-climate certified, with 18,000 BTU/h at 5°F.
It will heat most of the year - its HSPF2 beats 81% of mini-splits.
You want steady temperatures and quiet running - the compressor varies its speed.

Think twice if…

Cooling cost matters most - its SEER2 is below average for mini-splits.
You want the newest refrigerant - it uses R-410A, which is being phased down.
