Heat pumps are an attractive option because they cool effectively at a fraction of the operating cost of central air for those in warmer climates, like the Vegas Valley. These systems do initially come with a higher installation and purchasing cost, though the savings over the years give consumers a return and then some. Depending on how many units are required, another initially more expensive options, is ductless mini-split systems. This solution is optimal for home additions and multi-unit buildings, as the systems cool individual rooms. Small spaces have this as a most economical option with the mini-split system.

Assigned to every unit to allow consumers to the efficiency at a glance, is the SEER rating, or the seasonal energy efficiency ratio, and the overall price play a role. Resulting in a higher price tag, the higher the SEER rating of the unit.
