Heating Seasonal Performance Factor. Efficiency of a heat pump in the heating mode, taking cycling into account; the amount of heating provided per unit of electricity purchased. The higher the HSPF number, the more efficient the heat pump.
See Chapter 12, Efficiency Ratings, for more information.
The eating easonal erformance actor is a measure of the heating efficiency of a heat pump. The higher the HSPF number, the more efficiently the heat pump heats your home.
HSPF is one of two energy efficiency ratings for heat pump systems (SEER is the other). The HSPF rating measures operating efficiency during the heating season. The higher the HSPF rating, the more efficiently the system will perform.
The Heating Seasonal Performance Factor is the heating efficiency rating for heat pumps. The higher the rating, the more efficient the heat pump. HSPF will be regulated in 2006 at 7.7.
Heating Seasonal Performance Factor. The total heating output of a heat pump during its normal annual usage period for heating, in Btu, divided by the total electric energy input during the same period, in watt hours, as determined by DOE 10 CFR Part 430, Subpart B, Test Procedures, and based on Region 4. Heat pump heating is expressed in terms of HSPF. New equipment ranges from about 6.8 to 10.0 HSPF. Higher HSPF ratings indicate more efficient equipment.
The Heating Seasonal Performance Factor is the heating efficiency rating for heat pumps. The higher the rating, the more efficient the heat pump. There is no legislated minimum HSPF rating.
Stands for Heating Seasonal Performance Factor. Indicates how efficiently a Heat Pump is working. A higher number means the unit works more efficiently. Most new units have ratings from 7.0 to 9.4.
Heating Seasonal Performance Factor. The measure of seasonal or annual efficiency of a heat pump operating in the heating mode. It takes into account the variations in temperature that can occur within a season and is the average number of Btu of heat delivered for every watt-hour of electricity used by the heat pump over a heating season.
Heating Seasonal Performance Factor. This factor rates the efficiency of the heating portion of the heat pump.
Heating Season Performance Factor. A rating of the average efficiency of a heat pump unit when operating in the heating mode.
Heating Seasonal Performance Factor means the total heating output of a heat pump in British Thermal Units during its normal usage period for heating divided by the total electrical energy input in watt-hours during the same period.
Heating Seasonal Performance Factor. It measures the efficiency of the heating portion of your heat pump. The Department of Energy minimum is 6.8. (Similar to SEER.)
HSPF stands for eating eason erformance actor. Simply put, it is a measure of how efficiently a heat pump performs during colder months, when it is used for heating. The higher the HSPF number, the more efficiently the heat pump heats.
Heating Seasonal Performance Factor. A measure of a heat pump's heating efficiency. The higher the HSPF, the more efficient the product. There is no government established minimum HSPF rating for heat pumps.
Heating Seasonal Performance Factor. A measure of heat pump heating efficiency. The higher the rating, the more efficient the heat pump. The US government's established minimum HSPF rating for furnaces is 6.8%.
A measure of heating efficiency for the total heating output of a central air-conditioning heat pump. Efficiency is derived according to federal test methods by using the total Btus during its normal usage period for heating divided by the total electrical energy input in watt-hours during the same period. California Code of Regulations, Section 2-1602(c)(7).
Heating seasonal performance factor is similar to SEER, but it measures the efficiency of the heating portion of your heat pump. Like SEER, industry minimums have been raised recently, and the minimum is now 6.80 HSPF. The total heating output of a heat pump during its normal annual usage period for heating divided by the total electric power input in watt-hours during the same period. COP & HSPF can not be compared equally. Air Source equipment is rated by HSPF or COP and Geothermal equipment is rated by COP. ARI standards compares air source equipment at two temperatures, 47 F and 17 F. Geothermal equipment is compared at 32 F enter water temperature.
(heating seasonal performance factor): a measurement of an all-electric air-to-air heat pump's efficiency (in the heating mode) over an entire season. HSPF is calculated by dividing the total number of Btus of heating provided over the entire season by the total number of watt-hours required to operate the system over the season.
