HSPF2 (Heating Seasonal Performance Factor, version 2) measures how efficiently a heat pump converts electricity to heat over an entire heating season. A higher HSPF2 means lower operating costs. As of 2023, HSPF2 replaced the older HSPF standard, which was tested under less realistic conditions. Look for HSPF2 of 9+ for good efficiency.
