Energy Savings & Rebates
Heating and cooling systems with high efficiency ratings often include rebates and incentives. Learn about the new high-efficiency technology and ratings.
Save Big With High-Efficiency Heating And Cooling Systems
Did you know that today’s modern furnaces and air conditioners are “intelligent”, and as a result they reduce energy consumption and lower your utility bills by up to 40%? When it comes to heating and cooling options, you can choose between “conventional” or “high-efficiency”. New furnaces and air conditioners have energy savings ratings, and these high-efficiency systems qualify for additional incentives. Rebates are also available for alternative heating and cooling systems, like a hybrid (heat pump) system.
Electronically Commutated Motors – ECM
Did you know that a simple, low-cost upgrade of the blower motor in your furnace can save 25% in annual electrical costs? Older HVAC systems typically have motors that are far less efficient (and noisier) than today’s electronically commutated motors, or ECMs.
Heating And Cooling System Ratings Include:
• Furnaces and boilers: Natural gas or propane or oil furnaces and boilers with 95% AFUE • Split system air conditioner rated 16 SEER / 13 EER • Split system heat pump rated 15 SEER / 12.5 EER / 8.5 HSPF • Air conditioners rated 14 SEER / 12 EER • Heat pumps rated 14 SEER / 12 EER / 8 HSPF • Advanced main air circulating fans
IMPORTANT NOTE: Incentive programs and rebates vary in amounts and change by the season.
Energy Buzzwords: Become Informed
AFUE: Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency. A thermal efficiency measure of combustion equipment such as furnaces, boilers, and water heaters.
SEER: Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio. Cooling output in Btu’s during a typical cooling-season divided by the total electric energy input in watt-hours during the same period. For air-conditioning and air-source heat pumps.
EER: Energy Efficiency Ratio of a particular cooling device; the ratio of output cooling (in Btu/hr) to input electrical power (in watts).
HSPF: Heating Seasonal Performance Factor. A measure of efficiency for air source heat pumps.

The installation went very smoothly. Thomas M. did a beautiful job. He was friendly and polite. He answered any questions we had about the new furnace. The city inspector even had compliments for the quality of work he saw.

"Extremely thorough and knowledgeable, I'll be going with them from now on."
I originally hired this company because I've seen a ton of their vehicles around throughout the last year. The previous contractor I used did a poor job, and these guys illustrated just how much so. Extremely thorough and knowledgeable, I'll be going with

"We are happy that we had Standard come to our house."
They called ahead on the scheduled day, arrived on time, explained their procedure, got right to work, worked steadily during the job, warned us ahead about noisy times so we could make phone calls, wore protective masks, cleaned up.

"It was a great experience. Couldn't recommend it more highly."
I originally had an appointment to get it fixed on 6/22, but Greg came on the 17th, 5 days early! He was extremely professional and was in and out in under a half an hour.
