When the time comes for an air conditioner replacement, a load calculation determined by an expert is an important step in ensuring you’re selecting the correct system for your home. Every home has its own unique demands on a cooling system. Installing an incorrectly sized system will negatively impact your comfort, and your utility bills. So what factors into a home’s load calculation?
Our professionals take into account a number of factors when determining the load calculation and the size of system your home needs. We look at aspects such as: the environment of your area, square footage of your home, design, insulation levels, roof type, size and location of windows, sun exposure and the habits of and schedule of the people living inside the home.
We want to set you up with the air conditioner replacement that matches up with your home, and bigger isn’t always better. A system that is larger than necessary may make a number of concerns.
- It could cost you more money to use.
- An oversized system doesn’t have to operate as long so it will continuously be warming up and cooling down, which causes more wear and tear on your air conditioner.
- A unit that doesn’t work as long also fails to dehumidify the air, which may impact your comfort.
- If your system is too small, you’ll have trouble keeping your home at the set temperature.
Ensuring appropriate air flow is the key to your home’s comfort. A professional room by room load calculation will help to make sure that your air conditioner, ductwork and registers are all operating 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 many variables we factor in to find the correct products for your home.
