the raw page is mirrored to R2). 2 of the 17 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 15 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 0 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere. The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in USD (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 30 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. Derivation as chartered: one row per regulated figure with its effective date, quoted from the authority: the minimum SEER2/EER2/HSPF2 by DOE region and capacity band and the minimum AFUE from 10 CFR 430.32, the federal 25C credit caps and the date they ceased to apply, and the state-by-state status of the DOE Home Energy Rebates. The estimator keywords are served HERE and not by the cost index because an estimate is wrong twice over without this table: it must price the efficiency the buyer's region actually compels, and it must not quote a credit that no longer exists. Derived: the spread between the regional minima, and the count of states where a rebate is actually claimable today versus awarded-but-paused", "embed": "
