Questions
- What is the SEER2 rating of the MDV MOD30-24HFN10-M1?
- The MDV MOD30-24HFN10-M1 is rated at up to 23.5 SEER2 and 13.0 EER2 for cooling and up to 11.7 HSPF2 for heating. The exact figure depends on the indoor unit it is paired with; across its 12 certified matchups SEER2 ranges from 19.0-23.5.
- Is the MDV MOD30-24HFN10-M1 good for cold climates?
- Yes. At least one certified matchup meets the ENERGY STAR cold-climate criteria, delivering up to 19,600 BTU/h at 5°F with a COP of 2.54, so it is still 2.5 times as efficient as electric resistance heat at that temperature.
- How much does the MDV MOD30-24HFN10-M1 cost to run per year?
- At its rated efficiency it costs about $481-$1,337 a year in electricity in large U.S. cities, depending on climate and local rates - for example $600 in Phoenix and $1,122 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 MDV MOD30-24HFN10-M1?
- ENERGY STAR lists 12 certified combinations for this outdoor unit. The highest-rated ones use MSAG11D-23HRFN10-M1, MSEPD-24HRFN10-M1, MSEPD-24HRFN10-M1-D.
- What refrigerant does the MDV MOD30-24HFN10-M1 use?
