If you are thinking about buying a new air conditioner or looking closer at the performance of your current system, one of the first items to ponder is a load calculation.
What exactly does that include? Basically, it comes down to making sure that you get an appropriately-sized system for your home. Purchasing the incorrect size or type can have many consequences from the inability to keep your house cool to operating so hard that it decreases its lifecycle.
Every home is unique; home size, number of windows and type, insulation and even the direction the home faces are key considerations. Bigger isn’t always better. It isn’t the most wise to get an air conditioner that is more than what’s required for your home. The equipment will cost more and you’ll be paying to operate a system that is more than what’s needed. Air conditioners also help to lower humidity levels in the home and an oversized system can’t properly dehumidify the air which could also lead to poor indoor air quality.
You also don’t want a model that isn’t big enough and isn’t able to keep up. Not only does this play a role in the cooling of your home during the warmer seasonal temperatures, but it’ll also make the unit operate tougher.
With a number of different models and sizes, it can be a bear to know where to turn for answers. Lucky for you, this isn’t something you need to take care of on your own. The Expert team at Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning can provide you with a full load calculation assessment on your home. The heating and cooling load calculation takes into account the home’s structure, roof, windows, direction and location to decide the size and type of equipment needed. Any company that does not provide this detailed analysis can’t properly give you an accurate quote for the replacement of your air conditioner or even offer you the best more accurate price of a new system.
Not only does this assessment help determine which system is best for you, but it will also help you see the extra savings of high-efficiency products. You may not think to factor in utility costs when making your budget, but researching more efficient air conditioners and what it can give you will have a positive effect on your family’s budget. Our professionals can walk you through what you’ll need to live comfortably in your home and share some ideas on how to reduce energy usage through various features available.
