The measure of seasonal or annual efficiency of a Heat Pump operating in the heating mode. It takes into account the variations in temperature that can occur within a season and is the average number of BTU of heat delivered for every watt-hour of electricity used by the heat pump over a heating season.

Also explains why my Client, moving here from Boston, was asking about it.

Thanks, Dale.
