<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Sorry to be beating a dead horse…<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>the attached document has been floating around the boards
for awhile in regards to how an entered EER value in the Wizard gets converted
to the Cooling-EIR value in the Detailed Edit mode, and after doing a few EER
value tests, I can confirm it works…<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I’ve also found in various emails the conversions on the
heat pump heating side of COP and HSPF to Heating-EIR, and those work too after
testing various values in the Wizard…<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Heating EIR = (1/(COP*3.413)-0.012167)/((1/3.413)-0.012167)<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Heating EIR =
(1/((HSPF*0.28+1.13)*3.413)-0.012167)/((1/3.413)-0.012167)<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>But I just can’t get the SEER to EER conversion from the
document (EER = SEER x 0.778 + 1.4) to work.  I’m assuming that the
converted SEER to EER value then gets put into the working equation from that
PDF of Cooling-EIR = ((1/EER)-0.12167)/((1/3.413)+0.012167)).<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>As an example…if you put in a 13 SEER into the Wizard, a
0.2507 Cooling-EIR value is calculated in the Detailed Edit mode, but if you
use the SEER to EER (13 SEER would equal a 11.514 EER) and then the EER to EIR
equations, it says EIR should be 0.2447.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Any help/suggestions would be great…hopefully it’s just a
math error on my part.<o:p></o:p></p>
