When it’s time for an air conditioner replacement, a load calculation determined by a pro is a critical step in making certain that you’re choosing the right system for your home. Every home has its own unique demands on a cooling system. Installing an improperly sized system will negatively affect your comfort, and your utility bills. So what factors into a home’s load calculation?
Our experts take into account a variety factors when determining the load calculation and the size of system you will need. We look at things such as: the climate of your town, square footage of your home, design, insulation levels, roof type, size and location of windows, sun exposure and the habits of and schedule of everyone inside the home.
We want to pair you with the air conditioner replacement that matches up with your home, and bigger isn’t always better. A system that is bigger than necessary could generate a host of concerns.
- It might cost you more money to use.
- An oversized system doesn’t have to operate as long so it will continually be warming up and cooling down, which causes more wear and tear on your air conditioner.
- A unit that doesn’t operate as long also fails to dehumidify the air, which may affect your comfort.
- If your system is too small, you’ll have trouble keeping your home at the chosen temperature.
Ensuring appropriate air flow is the key to your home’s comfort. A professional room by room load calculation will help to be sure that your air conditioner, ductwork and registers are all working in sync to keep you comfortable. Load calculation was once based exclusively on square footage, and while that is a portion of the puzzle, there are a host of variables we factor in to find the right products for your home.
