Customized AC Installation Solutions
In the U.S., the HVAC industry sizes ACs in tonnage, and the average home needs between a 3.0- and 3.5-ton unit. Getting the size right is crucial. If an AC is too big or too small, it will cost more to run and maintain, and it won’t last as long. Our professional AC installation services include performing a custom load calculation for your home. It will account for your home’s floor plan, cubic footage, and building envelope. We can also factor in your location. Some houses are in the shade much of the day, while others get a lot of direct sunlight.
Another important consideration is your existing ducts, which you’ll likely want to reuse. We can inspect them and recommend sealing, insulation, and repairs as necessary. If you go forward with leaky ducts, that can undermine your new AC’s efficiency by as much as 20%. If your older ducts are beyond repair, we can remove them and design and install new ducts.
Once you know the optimal size of your new AC, you can explore the options in that category. The industry uses the seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER2) to measure AC efficiency over an entire summer. The higher the SEER2 rating, the cheaper the AC will be to run. Higher-efficiency systems do cost more, so we’ll help you strike a balance between initial costs and long-term savings. That includes looking at tax credits, rebates, and other energy incentives. We can also look at MERV ratings, as better filtration promotes healthier air quality.
Installing a new thermostat is often a relatively inexpensive way of reducing your costs even more. A programmable thermostat can lower annual cooling costs by as much as 10% on average. Smart thermostats typically have advanced features for even greater energy savings, including energy monitoring and occupancy sensing. You can also consider implementing a zone control system, which can increase annual savings to as much as 30%.
