Who it's for
Adding heating and cooling to a room, addition or zone without ductwork.
The standout number
COP 2.06 at 5°F — it keeps working efficiently when it's frigid.
The catch
A DIY-listed unit still needs a licensed pro for the refrigerant hookup, permit and warranty.

Frequently asked questions
Does the Cooper&Hunter CH-ES06-115VO still heat in cold weather?
At 5°F it runs at a COP of 2.06, meaning it delivers 2.06 units of heat for every unit of electricity it uses. Its certified heating output at 5°F is 6,700 BTU per hour. It is not on the ENERGY STAR Cold Climate list, so check sizing for very cold weather.
What does the Cooper&Hunter CH-ES06-115VO cost to run?
About $19.21 per MMBtu of delivered heat at the U.S. average electricity price, roughly 65% less than electric resistance heat. Your local electricity price changes the number — use our operating-cost calculator to run it with your rate.
What refrigerant does the Cooper&Hunter CH-ES06-115VO use?
R-410A, which has a global-warming potential (GWP) of about 2,088. R-410A is being phased down for new equipment, so newer models increasingly ship with lower-GWP R-32 or R-454B.
Where can I buy the Cooper&Hunter CH-ES06-115VO?
It's listed for sale online at Amazon. A licensed pro should still handle the refrigerant hookup, permit and warranty.
Sources. Performance ratings from the AHRI Directory (cited by reference number 210799695; not a verbatim mirror) and ENERGY STAR certification data. Operating-cost ($/MMBtu), savings and percentile figures are computed by Verified HVAC Data from published ratings and EIA U.S. average energy prices — see our methodology. Refrigerant GWP is the IPCC value for that refrigerant. We publish no star ratings and take no payment for placement. "Not published" means the source registry doesn't disclose it — we never fill a spec with a guess.
