RE: SEER 13
Air conditioning systems are now available with ratings up to SEER 16 , although a lot will depend on the installation to see if that efficiency is realized .
B.E.
You are judged not by what you know, but by what you can do.

Thanks

You should go back to the "designer"and collect his design fee as that person clearly didn't design anything. Every housewife nowadays will know they want "high efficiency".

SEER 13 is apparently the minimum to get "Energy Star" label, and as noted by others above, the minimum allowed by law.
Since you seem to be working in the owner's interest your position should be "SEER 13 is the lowest allowed and there is much better available on the market. The lowest you can get is clearly not "high efficiency"".

and it doesn't say to use SEER rating should be used, it says SEER exists, which contractually doesn't mean anything, it is like an informational note.
Contract language like that explains why the US is paradise for lawyers and the US has the largest ratio of attorneys in any country.

6500 BTH/hr is basically a window air conditioner.

Just look for what the contractor proposes to use on his own. Maybe it is SEER 13 and you are good. No need to argue with them before you know what they intend.
