A Few Basic Terms

To help get the most from this booklet, youll need to understand a few basic terms. A British thermal unit (Btu) is a standard measure of heat energy. One Btu is the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit. Its metric thermal equivalent is 252 calories per hour. As a unit of power, one Btu/h equals 0.2929 watts (W). Manufacturers classify the size, or capacity, of an air-conditioning unit in terms of Btu/h. Cooling capacity, measured in British thermal units per hour (Btu/h), indicates the quantity of heat a room air conditioner can remove in one hour. Cooling load, also expressed in Btu/h, refers to the maximum amount of heat that can build up in a space without a cooling system. A watt (W) is the standard unit of power; one kilowatt (kW) equals 1000 watts. You purchase electricity from your utility by the kilowatt hour (kWh), equivalent to the amount of power required to operate one 100-W light bulb for 10 hours. To estimate how much electricity an appliance uses, multiply the wattage of the machine by the number of hours it will run. Energy efficiency ratio (EER) is a comparative measure of how much cooling an air conditioner provides for each unit of electrical energy that it consumes under standard operating conditions. A units EER is calculated by dividing its cooling capacity by its electrical power input at a specific temperature. In general, the higher the EER, the more efficient the unit.

English introduction

EnerGuide for Room Air Conditioners
The Advantages of Energy-Efficient Room Air Conditioners
Purchasing a room air conditioner is an investment in home comfort. Like any investment, it involves cost not only the purchase price of the air conditioner, but also the cost of electricity during the hot summer months. The good news is that you can reduce these costs by using the EnerGuide Room Air Conditioner Directory to select the most energy-efficient room air conditioner that meets your cooling needs. An energy-wise purchase will save you money for years. In fact, buying the most energy-efficient model on the market can cut your air-conditioning electrical costs by up to 30 percent a year. Youll also help the environment and the quality of the air we breathe. Thats because fewer pollutants will be released into the environment through electrical power generation. These pollutants include not only the greenhouse gases that contribute to climate change, but also the chemicals that lead to acid rain and smog. Using an energy-efficient air conditioner can also reduce the likelihood of electrical brownouts caused by excessive demand.

hen you put energy efficiency on your shopping list, youre not only saving money, youre investing in a cleaner, healthier environment for future generations.

Whats New?

This edition of the EnerGuide Room Air Conditioner Directory features the following: ENERGY STAR The symbol identifies, for the first time, throughthe-wall units as well as all window-mounted units on the market that are ENERGY STAR qualified. My Shopping Notes and Other Worksheets Designed to make it easy for you to shop with energy efficiency in mind, these simple worksheets help you identify the most energy-efficient model that meets your cooling needs. For a sneak preview, go to the last page. Canadas One-Tonne Challenge Replacing your old air conditioner with an ENERGY STAR qualified model (and disposing of your old air conditioner properly) can go a long way to reduce your households greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to climate change. Visit the Web site of the Government of Canadas One-Tonne Challenge at climatechange.gc.ca to learn what you can do to save energy, save money and help Canada meet its climate change goals.

Helpful Shopping Tools

EnerGuide is a Government of Canada initiative that rates the energy consumption and efficiency of household appliances, heating and ventilating equipment, air conditioners, houses and vehicles. Administered by the Office of Energy Efficiency (OEE) of Natural Resources Canada (NRCan), EnerGuide helps Canadian consumers make energy-efficient choices when theyre ready to buy.
EnerGuide has two goals: to help protect the environment by reducing demand for energy in Canada and, as a result, reducing greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to climate change; and to help consumers spend less money on energy. The highly visible EnerGuide label describes the energy efficiency of a room air conditioner. If you buy a less efficient model, youll miss out on the opportunity for substantial long-term savings for yourself and all Canadians. By law, the EnerGuide label must appear on all new room air conditioners and most major household appliances sold in Canada. To make your comparison shopping even easier, this booklet provides the energy efficiency ratings of every room air conditioner sold in Canada as of March 2004. The EnerGuide Directory is updated annually. This directory also helps you determine the size of air conditioner most appropriate for the space you need to cool; the approximate operating cost of the unit; what steps you can take to reduce that cost; and how the ENERGY STAR symbol can help you spot the most energy-efficient units. This directory can help you save money and do your part to achieve Canadas climate change goals.

Other Factors to Consider Before Buying a New Unit
If youve ever shopped for room air conditioners, you may already know that they can come with a wide variety of features. Some of these features may help cool your space more efficiently. Controls and energy-saving modes You can save both energy and money with such features as a programmable thermostat, a built-in timer or an energy-saving mode, which switches off the fan automatically whenever the compressor motor stops. A remote control can make it easier to save energy if the air conditioner is installed in a hard-to-reach spot. Noise You may also want to factor sound into your decision. Noisy units might cost less, but may bother you and your neighbours. To compare machines accurately, ask the salesperson to run each unit for a minute or two with the fan and compressor operating. Listen closely to the sound generated by the fan (indoor noise) and the compressor (outdoor noise). Installation and maintenance Another important consideration is ease of access for maintenance, installation and removal. Removing and storing your air conditioner properly for winter can make the unit last longer and lead to greater savings. Consider, for instance, the potential for heat loss when the unit is removed for winter. Can the empty space be insulated easily? Most through-the-wall units require experienced installers, while smaller, lighter window units are relatively easy to install. A large, heavy unit usually needs a slide-out chassis and outdoor support and may require special electrical circuitry. Location Perhaps youve already thought about where to install the room air conditioner. Keep in mind that an ideal location allows for adequate circulation of air around the unit, both indoors and out. The best location is usually free of drapes, furniture and exterior shrubbery and doesnt expose the unit to direct sunlight.
Air circulation Youll want a unit that enables you to distribute cool air where its needed. This is particularly important for large spaces and when a unit is installed in a corner or near a door. Also, remember that a clean filter improves air circulation, so learn how to clean the filter on your new unit. Other cooling units Overall, todays room air conditioners are more efficient, quieter and less costly to own and operate than current portable units. In Canada there are no minimum energy efficiency requirements for portable models. Ask your retailer for information and advice about which features are best for your situation.

ENERGY STAR Means High Energy Efficiency EnerGuide now has a powerful new ally: the international ENERGY STAR symbol. While EnerGuide provides comparative information on the energy consumption of different products, the ENERGY STAR symbol on a room air conditioner or on its EnerGuide label assures you that the unit is one of the top energy performers on the market.
Consumers now recognize the ENERGY STAR symbol as a symbol for energy efficiency. Look for the new ENERGY STAR symbol in 2004. To qualify for the ENERGY STAR symbol, a room air conditioner must meet a standard of premium energy efficiency. To earn this status, a room air conditioner must exceed the Government of Canadas minimum standard of energy efficiency by at least 10 percent. See the table below for details on ENERGY STAR performance levels.
New for 2004 ENERGY STAR performance levels for through-the-wall and casement units.

Note: Units with heating elements or reverse cycles (i.e. mini heat pumps) do not qualify for ENERGY STAR.
By replacing your old air conditioner with an ENERGY STAR qualified model, you can realize substantial savings in electricity costs. Todays ENERGY STAR qualified units use 30 to 40 percent less energy than most models sold 10 to 15 years ago. For updates and more information on ENERGY STAR in Canada, visit energystar.gc.ca.
How to Calculate Air-Conditioning Costs (Worksheet 2)
The cost of operating a room air conditioner varies according to several factors, including the following: the EER and cooling capacity of the air conditioner; the temperature setting you use; whether you run the fan on continuous or auto mode; which of the units features you choose to use; how often you use the unit; the price of electricity; and the weather. To estimate the energy cost of a specific room air conditioner before you buy it, multiply the units energy consumption by the price of electricity in your region. Worksheet 2 (below) will help with this calculation.

Dont let heat build up all day and then, in an effort to cool quickly, switch your air conditioner to its maximum setting.
Its far more efficient to start the unit earlier in the day, letting the room cool gradually. A timer or programmable thermostat enables your air conditioner to cool and dehumidify slowly and efficiently.
If the space is going to be unoccupied for more than four hours, set your thermostat to 28C. Set the fan to operate continuously when you need air movement to maintain comfortable conditions. Use the fan-only mode (if available) in the evening and early morning to draw cooler outside air into the house.
Question: When I return home on a hot day, should I crank the room air conditioner to its coldest setting to cool the room faster? Answer: No. The temperature control is a thermostat, not a gas pedal. A room air conditioner takes heat and humidity out of the air at a preset rate; cranking the units thermostat wont make the room cool any faster and will waste energy in the long run. A timer leads to greater efficiency and comfort by switching on the unit only when its needed. Use a timer to ensure you arrive home to a comfortable temperature.
Close all doors leading to your air-conditioned space as much as possible to keep cool air in. Draw curtains and blinds to limit heat gain through windows. Shut closet doors to avoid cooling unused space. Close off fireplaces to prevent cool air from escaping up the chimney. Turn off lights and appliances when they arent needed because they generate heat. In areas where lights are left on for long periods, replace incandescent bulbs with cooleroperating compact fluorescents. Use natural or fan-assisted ventilation to cool your house whenever outdoor temperatures and humidity levels drop.
Maintenance Checklist Read the owners manual and follow the manufacturers recommendations for installation, operation, cleaning and maintenance.
Clean or change air filters regularly for optimal performance. A dirty air filter reduces airflow and operating efficiency and, in some cases, can damage a room air conditioner. Inspect the unit from inside and outside your home. From indoors, check vents to ensure airflow isnt blocked and that there is no frost build-up on the unit both can damage the unit. From outdoors, ensure all vents are clean and free of debris, such as leaves. Consult your owners manual for more detailed instructions. Before winter, remove, clean and store your air conditioner. Cover and seal the window opening for the unit to prevent air leaks. If it isnt possible to remove the unit, surround it with insulation from the inside, cover the insulation with polyethylene sheeting and seal it with duct tape.

Service Checklist Consult the owners manual or contact a service technician about the correct maintenance schedule for your unit. Some models require extra attention, such as regular lubrication of fan motors for noise-free operation.
Service the unit whenever performance begins to deteriorate. A small loss of refrigerant can cause the unit to run more noisily, decrease operating efficiency and harm the environment. Its important to fix any leaks and recycle the units refrigerant whenever service is performed.

Technical Corner

Supporting Energy Innovation Does Make a Difference Beginning in the 1970s, new coil designs, more efficient compressors and better circulation systems led to a dramatic 15 percent drop per decade in the average energy consumption of room air conditioners (based on 750 hours of operation per year). This represents a shift in the average energy efficiency ratio, or EER, from 6.0 in the 1970s to nearly 10.5 today.
Todays energy-efficient units incorporate efficient rotary compressors and large evaporators and condensers with louvred fins and internally rifled tubes, as well as more efficient permanent split-capacitor (PSC) fans and slinger rings that deposit water collected from evaporators onto hot condensers. Models may soon have an EER of 13. These units often offer advanced comfort features, such as noise reduction.

Warm Room Air
Two types of refrigerant chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), such as R-22 are being phased out under the Montreal Protocol to reduce the use and release of ozone-depleting substances. Manufacturers of all new air conditioners sold in Canada and the United States must rely on refrigerants that meet increasingly strict environmental standards. In almost all cases, older room air conditioners cant be refilled with newer refrigerants. For more information on the phase-out and alternatives to CFCs and HCFCs, visit Environment Canadas Stratospheric Ozone Web site at www.ec.gc.ca/ozone.
How to Dispose of a Used Air Conditioner
Room air conditioners contain chemicals that can contaminate a landfill and lead to serious environmental and public health problems. Appliance-recycling programs are available in many Canadian communities. Consult your Yellow Pages or call your municipality to find out what local programs exist and how appliances are collected. A municipal hazardous-waste depot can properly dispose of your room air conditioner. All refrigerants need to be recovered by qualified service personnel and reclaimed by specially trained technicians for recycling. In addition to the CFCs in refrigerants, some older units also contain mercury.

The EnerGuide Ratings for 2004
The EER listings in this directory are divided by type and voltage. Window-mounted units are installed in a double-hung window opening. Casement models are used in crank-out windows; casementslider models can also be used for windows mounted into sliding or horizontal tracks. Through-the-wall mounted units are installed in exterior wall openings, typically in multi-storey apartment buildings. Within each type, units are further divided by electrical voltage: 120 volts (uses a regular three-prong plug) and 240 volts (requires a dedicated circuit and special plug). This directory also indicates models that operate as mini heat pumps (with reverse cycles). In these models, the refrigerant flow can be reversed to provide heat. The listing for each room air conditioner includes the following: brand name; model number; amperage (you may need to consult an electrician or a heating, ventilating and air-conditioning specialist to ensure proper wiring and avoid overloading a circuit); cooling capacity; energy efficiency ratio (EER); and ENERGY STAR status.
How to Use the EnerGuide Ratings
Once youve determined the type (window, casement or through-the-wall) and capacity (see Worksheet 1) of room air conditioner youll need, the listings can help in two ways: If you know the brand name or model number of the unit you prefer, look it up in the directory. You can then compare its EER with others of the same type with a similar cooling capacity. If you dont have a specific brand or model in mind, review the listings to determine which models meet your cooling-capacity needs. Then check and compare the EERs of these units to determine which are most energy efficient. For ease of reference, units are grouped by cooling capacity and brand. For each level of cooling capacity, the models of each brand are listed in order of efficiency, beginning with the most efficient ENERGY STAR qualified models. Copy the details of your top three choices into the appropriate sections of My Shopping Notes (Worksheet 3), found on the last page of this booklet. Take the sheet along when you shop to add details about features, purchase price and lifetime operating cost. Analysing the data youve entered on the sheet will help you select the most economical and energy-efficient model. EERs in this directory are based on tests that replicate room airconditioner use as closely as possible. Actual energy consumption may vary, however, depending on how and where the unit is installed, how its used and maintained and other factors.
