Air Conditioning Options

Air conditioning is most prevalent in areas where temperatures will likely rise above 85 degrees. If you live in an area where heat of this degree is unlikely, you may not need a central air conditioning system. For mild cooling purposes, a heat pump might fit your needs. However, individuals with asthma or allergies may wish to have central air installed in their home because of its filtering and “conditioning” qualities.

Know the Size You Need

It’s easy to see why you wouldn’t want a system too small to heat your house. However, installing a system too large for your house also leads to lower efficiency. A system with an oversized energy load will cycle on and off too frequently, meaning it won’t reach peak operating temperature and will use up more energy than is necessary.

When you’re about to install a new system, be sure your HVAC contractor can help you calculate the size of the heating system you need. You must determine the heating load based on your home’s size and shape, insulation, and the local climate.

Invest in Quality

Price should be no object for an HVAC system that will keep you warm and cool when you need it for years to come. You don’t always need to choose the most expensive HVAC system, but once you find the system with the heating load you need, make sure you’re paying for quality. It’s especially important to get an extended warranty. Although they may cost more initially, a furnace with a twenty-year warranty promises quality from the manufacturer and is a good investment in case of malfunction.

Buy Local

It’s not just about keeping local businesses open. Sophisticated, complex modern air conditioners and heating appliances require routine checkups and maintenance by technicians who are familiar with the appliance’s installation process and design. If your HVAC contractor is coming from far away, it may be more difficult to schedule maintenance appointments or make an emergency service call. Be sure that your equipment is sold and installed by a company that can come out to your home or business quickly in an emergency.
