Delivering Comfort and Quality
At American Standard Heating & Air Conditioning, the goal is to deliver the comfort families expect. Whether it's the top-tier Platinum Series, the reliably efficient Gold Series, or the durable Silver Series, every air conditioner carries the American Standard name with a commitment to high quality craftsmanship. Achieving a higher standard of comfort begins with a higher standard of quality.
SEER and Savings: When comparing air conditioners, pay close attention to the SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio). This metric measures how efficiently an air conditioner cools your home, similar to miles per gallon in a car. A higher SEER rating means less energy is used to stay comfortable.

Meeting or Exceeding Efficiency Standards: SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) is a measure of efficiency for air conditioners. SEER ratings are like miles per gallon in cars—the higher the rating, the more energy efficient the unit. All American Standard Heating & Air Conditioning systems satisfy or exceed minimum government SEER standards. Some are so efficient, installing your efficient air conditioner as part of a qualifying matched system may earn you an energy rebate from your utility company.*
