When it’s time for an air conditioner replacement, a load calculation determined by an expert is a crucial step in making sure you’re picking the correct system for your home. Every home has its own individual demands on a cooling system. Installing an inappropriately sized system will negatively affect 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 you will need. We look at aspects such as: the climate 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 match you with the air conditioner replacement that matches up with your home, and bigger isn’t always ideal. A system that is higher capacity than necessary could generate a variety of problems.
- It could cost you more money to run.
- An oversized system doesn’t have to work as long so it will continually be warming up and cooling down, which causes more wear and tear on your unit.
- A unit that doesn’t operate as long also fails to dehumidify the air, which may diminish your comfort.
- If your system is too small, you’ll have trouble keeping your home at the set temperature.
Ensuring correct 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 only on square footage, and while that is a piece of the puzzle, there are a number of variables we factor in to find the correct products for your home.
