Ensure Your Home or Business is Ready for Summer With a Quality AC Installation

by | Aug 28, 2024 | HVAC Contractor

There are a variety of ways to cool your home or business. For example, an AC installation could consist of a central air system, an HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) system, a ductless or split AC, or even portable units or window air conditioners. The option you choose will usually depend on your budget. It is important to purchase the best system you can afford because a minimal AC installation may leave you wanting more while an overly large appliance could be a waste of your hard-earned cash.

Portable air conditioners tend to be room-based units with limited capacity. They tend to require some sort of drainage system to eliminate condensation, but they do allow you to place the unit where it is required. Window units can generally cool a whole room provided that they are the right size. The disadvantage of these appliances is limited cooling capacity and very little directional control. This leaves you with hot spots in the room being treated.

The most common AC installation performed by contractors is the HVAC system. That is because the HVAC system is a dual system that provides whole-building comfort all year long. When you select your HVAC model, the dealer will need to size it to suit your home or business. The contractor will need to calculate the square footage to be treated, allow for your personal temperature preferences, adjust the formula for windows and exterior doors and, in commercial circumstances, calculate changes from any extra heat sources such as kitchen areas or cafeterias. They should also consider the need for indoor air quality and the limited air transference between outdoors and indoors.

Once your new comfort appliance is installed, it is important to consider maintenance schedules. Most dealers will offer package deals to ensure your appliance is functioning correctly. Maintenance is crucial to ensure that you get the longest service life from the unit as possible. A properly maintained and repaired system could last for a couple of decades. If the current heating and cooling system is older than this, you may want to consider replacing it. Older appliances aren’t as efficient as newer systems, and they don’t have some energy-saving options that current units provide. Satisfaction is Guaranteed when you have a new comfort appliance installed.
