One of the most important things homeowners look for in an air conditioner, next to keeping them cool, is energy efficiency. Whether you are in the market for an air conditioner replacement or wanting to get the most out of the efficiency of an existing system, being energy efficient is important. Heating and cooling expenses can make up close to half of your total utility bills, so we want to help you do everything you can to make sure you’re cool while keeping down costs.
If you’re considering air conditioner replacement you’ve probably noted that each unit has a SEER rating. SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio, and is a reflection of the efficiency of your air conditioner. The higher the SEER rating, the higher the efficiency, which means the lower the heating and cooling costs. The government orders a minimum SEER rating for all equipment that was produced after 2015, that number is based on region. Our certified professionals will work with you and look at your home to help you make the best selection when looking into air conditioner replacement.
If you’re looking to get the most efficiency possible out of your present unit, there are a number of things you can do. First, as we always try to remind people, change your air filters. A dirty filter will cause your air conditioner to work harder to keep you cool. Keeping it clean will improve efficiency, keep your air clean and improve the life of your unit. We don’t want to sound like a broken record, but it’s essential.
Another thing to do is stay on top of regular maintenance. Our certified experts will clean your unit, check electrical connections and note any problems that could be inhibiting the efficiency of your unit.
