Benefits of the Lennox SL22KLV
The Lennox SL22KLV is part of the brand’s Signature product tier. It’s a top-of-the-line heat pump with incredibly high efficiency and many powerful technologies built in. Standout features include:
- Super high efficiency. The Lennox SL22KLV boasts a SEER2 rating of up to 23 — much higher than the legal minimum of 14.3 heat pumps must meet across the Southwest.
- Precise comfort. Lennox’s Precise Comfort technology controls the variable-speed compressor, allowing it to make tiny temperature changes at a moment’s notice and adapt to your home’s ambient conditions.
- TruHeat performance. By improving heat output, TruHeat provides a similar, comforting warmth to gas furnaces.
- Quiet operation. With a sound rating as low as 58 dB, the Lennox SL22KLV is quieter than most budget and mid-tier heat pumps.
- iComfort integration. The heat pump integrates with iComfort thermostats, allowing advanced control and monitoring.
- Durable design. Lennox’s Quantum Coil and PermaGuard cabinet enable the heat pump to withstand Arizona’s hot, dry weather.
iComfort Integration
Of the Lennox SL22KLV’s features, iComfort integration is among the most exciting for many homeowners because smart thermostats improve HVAC efficiency by leaps and bounds.
iComfort thermostats specifically, also provide diagnostics and maintenance alerts. When you’re aware of minor problems as they arise, maintenance issues are less likely to lead to costly repairs or system replacements.
While smart thermostat installation unlocks more functionality from your heat pump, iComfort thermostats take this a step further by also integrating with Google and Amazon smart home devices. This lets you manage your heating and cooling alongside your lighting, security, and music.
Maximizing Energy Savings
The Lennox SL22KLV’s high SEER2 rating of 23 slashes your energy bills by about 35% if upgrading from a 15 SEER2 heat pump or air conditioner. For a homeowner in Arizona, this means savings of about $755 a year on cooling, based on the state’s 15.5c/kWh electricity rate. You’ll save even more if upgrading from an older system with a lower SEER2 rating.
Looking at heating efficiency, the Lennox SL22KLV has an HSPF2 rating of 10.3, which converts to a COP of about 3.55. This means the heat pump generates roughly 3.55 times more heat per unit of electricity than older electric heaters. While heat pumps don’t always run at maximum efficiency, replacing your electric furnace could save you up to 72% off your heating bills.
Is the Lennox SL22KLV Ideal for Your Home?
Considering your options? The Lennox SL22KLV is ideal for many homes but may be the best option to:
- Minimize your carbon footprint
- Reduce your energy bills
- Improve comfort in larger or more open homes
- Integrate your heating and cooling with smart home devices
- Invest in the value of your home
Thanks to the federal IRA tax credit system, you might also be eligible for tax credits equal to up to 30% of the installation costs when installing a new, high-efficiency heat pump like the Lennox SL22KLV.
