FAQ

• How do I know if my A/C unit is big enough?

  Before purchasing a replacement system you should always make sure your system is sized properly. Our representative will provide a heat load calculation to determine the proper size and make the appropriate recommendation. Remember, bigger is not always better.
  

• What maintenance should I do on my air conditioner?

  The most important maintenance you can do is to change your filters regularly. Ground mounted outdoor units need to be kept clear of debris, clutter; weeds or landscaping that can grow too close and reduce the airflow to the unit. Also, keep pets away from the unit because pet urine can cause expensive damage. Use caution with a weed trimmer around the unit to prevent damaging control wiring. Any additional maintenance should only be performed by qualified personnel.
  

• Is HVAC with more capacity better?

  No. Larger system is more expensive to operate, and it delivers less comfort. A system is the least efficient when first turning on. HVAC with too much capacity will continuously turn on and off, proving to be less efficient than the HVAC of the right size for your space. It is important to remember that an air conditioner dehumidifies air only when it is on, thus the HVAC with more capacity will not perform the job very well.
  Should I close the registers and doors to areas I am not using?
  Every system is made to cool a defined number of square feet. If you close the registers and/or doors to certain rooms that you do not use, you disrupt the airflow, and your system will work harder to circulate air to those areas. It will use more energy to cool less space, making it less efficient.
  
  

• What size HVAC system is right for my home?

  There are several factors that need to be considered when choosing the size of HVAC for your space. Some of them are the height of the ceiling, size of the window, placement of the window. There are dozens of other variables that have to be taken into consideration when choosing a proper size for a heating and/or cooling system. A professional load calculation is a must for an effective system.
