When it’s time for an air conditioner replacement, a load calculation determined by a professional is a crucial step in making sure you’re picking the correct system for your home. Every home has its own specific demands on a cooling system. Installing an incorrectly sized system will negatively affect your comfort, and your utility expenses. So what goes into a home’s load calculation?
Our pros take into account a variety factors when determining the load calculation and the size of system you’ll need. We look at things such as: the weather 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 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 ideal. A system that is bigger than necessary can make a variety of problems.
- It could cost you more money to use.
- An oversized system doesn’t have to run 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 run 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 proper 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 operating in sync to keep you comfortable. Load calculation was once based solely on square footage, and while that is a portion of the puzzle, there are a number of variables we factor in to find the correct products for your home.
