When the time arrives for an air conditioner replacement, a load calculation determined by an expert is a crucial step in making sure you’re choosing the correct system for your home. Every home has its own individual demands on a cooling system. Installing an incorrectly sized system will hurt your comfort, and your utility expenses. So what factors into a home’s load calculation?
Our experts take into account a variety factors when determining the load calculation and the size of system you will need. We look at factors 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 match you with the air conditioner replacement that matches up with your home, and bigger isn’t always the best. A system that is larger than necessary could create a number of problems.
- It might cost you more money to operate.
- An oversized system doesn’t have to work as long so it will continuously be warming up and cooling down, which causes more wear and tear on your unit.
- A unit that doesn’t run as long also fails to dehumidify the air, which might impact your comfort.
- If your system is too little, you’ll have trouble keeping your home at the chosen temperature.
Ensuring appropriate air flow is the key to your home’s comfort. A professional room by room load calculation will help to ensure that your air conditioner, ductwork and registers are all running 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 a number of variables we factor in to find the correct products for your home.
