Midea HVAC-Residential Heating & Cooling Solutions

Midea Total Heating Solutions

There are some significant changes coming to the standards that regulate the design and performance of HVAC products, including new minimum efficiencies requiring 14 SEER products in Northern states and 15 SEER products in Southern states.

Midea’s innovative heat pump products are well positioned to exceed the new efficiency requirements, all while supporting the transition away from gas or electric strip heating options that have a higher carbon footprint.

Why Upgrade to Inverter Heat Pumps?

the Energy Efficiency through Air Source Heating

Electric air source heat pumps move heat rather than converting it from fuel, as combustion heating systems do, so an air source heat pump (ASHP) can deliver 300-450% more heat energy to a home than the electrical energy it consumes.

Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) initiatives include The Greener Home Grant Program to help Canadians make where they live more energy efficient.

Lower Running Cost

Cold climate heat pumps can withstand cold environments like gas furnaces do, helping them reduce the time electric heaters run during cold winters.

Next Generation Cold Climate Heat Pump

Working with the Department of Energy
A manufacturing partner of "Cold Climate Heat Pump Technology Challenge"

The DOE launched the Cold Climate Heat Pump Technology Challenge in 2021 to spur the development of energy-efficient heat pump technology that performs effectively in all climates across the United States, even Northern regions during harsh winters.

Midea has completed lab testing with its forthcoming cold-climate heat pump system and is proud to announce the outstanding results. Our 3-ton model achieved 118% of rated capacity heating output at -15 degrees Fahrenheit – meaning the Midea unit can utilize the heat pump for primary heating, reducing the need for auxiliary heat strips or other heating sources. The Midea system delivered tremendous efficiency at -15 degrees F with a Coefficient of Performance (COP) of 1.92 – surpassing the Energy Star cold climate benchmark of 1.7 COP at 5 degrees F – despite doing it at a temperature 20 degrees below the testing standard.
