Emerson’s 2005 Home Air Conditioning Test, a national survey of homeowners with central air conditioning, found that 90% of homeowners do not know the efficiency rating of their central air conditioning system, and are unaware that new air conditioners soon must meet a higher minimum federal efficiency standard.
The survey also found that 55% of those homeowners who are unaware of the efficiency rating say they are concerned that they had not heard of this new mandate. (CB, June 2005, p. 14 and October 2005, p. 18.)
