Looking to Buy a New Air Conditioner?
Is your current air conditioning an older system nearing the end of its lifecycle, or is it no longer working? We know that buying a new air conditioner can be challenging. Worry not! We are here to help.
Tips for Buying a New A/C
Here are a few essential pointers to take into consideration if you are in the market for a new air conditioner system:
Bigger is Not Always Better when Buying New A/C
We tend to think that bigger is better, but not in this case. Sure, oversized air conditioners may cool the house down faster, but they short cycle, meaning they are turning on and off much more often. This short cycling impedes the system from adequately eliminating moisture from the air while making your system run very inadequately. As a result, humid air will feel less comfortable, making it necessary to run your system longer and harder to provide comfort. Plus, an unproductive system costs more in utility bills, while a system that is operating longer and harder will see a decrease in lifespan.
Get Good Ductwork on All Air Conditioning Installations
If you install a super high-efficiency system on a ductwork system that leaks, it could lose up to 25% to 40% of its efficacy. That’s your money blowing around. An adequate duct system will balance the air in your home. As a result, every room is approximately at the same temperature and the proper amount of air flows to each spot of the house. If you have cold rooms or hot areas, then your duct system is presumably not well-balanced.
Also, the ductwork must be insulated and sealed correctly to make sure it delivers the air with the least amount of loss.
Contract a Specialist for Your A/C Installation
How the system is installed is crucial to the efficiency and longevity of the unit. A correct installation procedure ensures that there is no moisture left in the system and that the refrigerant charge is precise. If a correct vacuum is not pulled on the system during installation, it could lead to premature compressor failure. If a refrigerant dryer is not installed in the refrigerant system, it could also cause premature compressor failure. If the blower speed is not set accurately, it can cause the vents or the unit to sweat. It is crucial that you choose an air conditioning contractor that will install your system properly.
