Questions
- What is the SEER2 rating of the TOSOT TU60-48WEDU?
- The TOSOT TU60-48WEDU is rated at up to 19.0 SEER2 and 11.7 EER2 for cooling and up to 10.0 HSPF2 for heating. The exact figure depends on the indoor unit it is paired with; across its 2 certified matchups SEER2 ranges from 18.2-19.0.
- Is the TOSOT TU60-48WEDU good for cold climates?
- Yes. At least one certified matchup meets the ENERGY STAR cold-climate criteria, delivering up to 54,000 BTU/h at 5°F with a COP of 2.10, so it is still 2.1 times as efficient as electric resistance heat at that temperature.
- How much does the TOSOT TU60-48WEDU cost to run per year?
- At its rated efficiency it costs about $1,310-$3,429 a year in electricity in large U.S. cities, depending on climate and local rates - for example $1,604 in Phoenix and $2,857 in Minneapolis. The calculator on this page works it out for your city and compares it with your current system.
- Is the TOSOT TU60-48WEDU the same as the Blueridge BNG3Z60UCM?
- Yes, as far as the certified ratings go. ENERGY STAR lists 4 model numbers with identical efficiency, capacity and matchups, which means the same outdoor unit sold under a different brand or with a minor variant code (voltage, colour or region). The full list is on this page.
- Which indoor units work with the TOSOT TU60-48WEDU?
- ENERGY STAR lists 2 certified combinations for this outdoor unit. The highest-rated ones use TUD48AH2/G-D(U), TUD60AH2/G-D(U).
- What refrigerant does the TOSOT TU60-48WEDU use?
- It uses R-32.
