As far as I know, you've described the issue perfectly. There's no cutoff point that I've heard of. The rule doesn't affect new old stock. - Jim Katen, Oregon Well, that's the pits. Looks like the builder has circumvented the intent of the law by stockpiling cheaper equipment and dumping it on unspecting consumers.....

I need help determining the rules around the new SEER 13 A/C requirements. I know the rule went into affect in 01/06. However, it states that it applies to anything 'manufactered' after that date, not installed. How long can a builder stockpile units? I'm buying a home sold new in 05/07 and it has SEER 10 & 12 units. The home was started in 2007. Is there not a cutoff point for a builder to get up to par or is there no time limit for them to use old equipment? Thx, Jim
