Sorry to be beating a dead horse...

the attached document has been floating around the boards for awhile in
regards to how an entered EER value in the Wizard gets converted to the
Cooling-EIR value in the Detailed Edit mode, and after doing a few EER
value tests, I can confirm it works...

I've also found in various emails the conversions on the heat pump
heating side of COP and HSPF to Heating-EIR, and those work too after
testing various values in the Wizard...

Heating EIR = (1/(COP*3.413)-0.012167)/((1/3.413)-0.012167)

Heating EIR = (1/((HSPF*0.28+1.13)*3.413)-0.012167)/((1/3.413)-0.012167)

But I just can't get the SEER to EER conversion from the document (EER =
SEER x 0.778 + 1.4) to work. I'm assuming that the converted SEER to
EER value then gets put into the working equation from that PDF of
Cooling-EIR = ((1/EER)-0.12167)/((1/3.413)+0.012167)).

As an example...if you put in a 13 SEER into the Wizard, a 0.2507
Cooling-EIR value is calculated in the Detailed Edit mode, but if you
use the SEER to EER (13 SEER would equal a 11.514 EER) and then the EER
to EIR equations, it says EIR should be 0.2447.

Any help/suggestions would be great...hopefully it's just a math error
on my part.
