Nevada Licensing and Efficiency Rules
Nevada is in the DOE's Southwest region, where new split central air conditioners need at least 14.3 SEER2 (13.8 SEER2 for systems of 45,000 BTU/h and up). The Southwest also sets a minimum EER2, which measures efficiency at peak heat. A repair usually goes ahead without a permit, but the tech handling refrigerant must hold EPA 608 certification. Ask the company for its Nevada license or registration number before the visit.
Before You Hire
- Keep space heaters away from curtains and bedding, and never heat the house with a gas oven.
- Ask what the emergency fee is before the truck is sent.
- If the CO alarm goes off, get everyone outside and call 911 or the gas company before you call an HVAC company.
