- Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) is a thermal efficiency measure of combustion equipment
like furnaces, boilers, and water heaters.
- Coefficient of Performance (COP) is the efficiency ratio of the amount of heating provided by a heat
pump to the energy consumed.
- Heating Seasonal Performance Factor (HSPF) is a measure of a heat pump's energy efficiency over one
heating season. It represents the total heating output of a heat pump during the normal heating season
as compared to the total electricity consumed during the same period.
