EXTREMELY Important Considerations Whenever Committing to A Brand new Air Conditioning And Home Heating System:

Last year, a client asked me about if all ac units were identical. The question caught me off guard generating me think of the way to reveal to her that all air-con and heating systems are usually not equal.

I told my client a true story that occurred when I was during our childhood. Subsequently after much persistent researching, my mom and dad got a new completely new car / truck. They picked a car that have a well-known “track record.” Ten yrs later, after being driven about 255,000 miles, the car was totaled in a wreck. This is what I learned with the experience. At some time your car was purchased, that it was a much more expensive, but it really improved gas mileage and was more dependable than some lower-priced cars. It actually lasted longer, too, which in the long run got less costly to possess. During the car’s life, the only real stuff needed replacement were routine, maintenance-related items.

Just like air conditioning system- I told my customer some similarities and differences between buying a new car along with a new air cooling system. Both are big ticket items, purchased with the owner’s comfort, reliability, and economy.

If you get hold of a new car, my way through it can be new and is engineered to your workplace together. When you buy a new comfort system, also, it is engineered to your workplace together, but it's often linked to existing parts in the house, that could or may not be adequate for that new system. If other existing components aren't adequate, they may cause expensive repairs, lack of performance (energy efficiency), and loss in comfort.

It should be noted that more than 60% of existing Heating and Cooling systems seen by Amazing Comfort specialists get some challenge with existing components that impacts the performance, comfort, or robustness of the system. Although the machine may work, it might not work optimally or economically should the location, size, or any other parts of the existing system are not matched correctly for the new system. At first glance, the smallest amount of amount of money expended at first may seem to become probably the most economical way to proceed; however, it may not be the best buy for your money, considering every item and fixture.

The very first thing an Amazing Comfort specialist can do when visiting you is to make an assessment of your respective existing comfort system, pinpointing areas that will need correction. Items that want updating could be anything from an improperly sized unit; defective or incorrectly installed duct; inadequate return air; and insufficient attic insulation or no radiant barrier. Believe it or not, using a radiant barrier can reduce the temperature inside your attic from 10-20 degrees. Having proper insulation (R-30 or above) lessens the heat that you need to pay to remove from a living space; thus, your investment helps your air con system to be effective less and saves you a fee. As a comfort specialist, I cannot over-emphasize value of assessing your property as well as other existing components that affect your air cooling and heat. This will insure the fact that new replacement air con system you end up picking is a good fit for you and saves the most money on the life of the machine.

Next, my customer and I discussed the importance of maintaining a whole new comfort system. Just being a car, if you don’t take care of the small things, it will cost you later if you should replace the big parts. If you want to obtain the equal of 250,000 miles from a comfort system, it is truly essential to help keep it properly. It is important to have good filtration on today’s high-efficiency AC systems. The top reason behind poor performance and premature failure of air con and home heating is inadequate filtration, not changing the filter on the recommended intervals, or not obtaining the proper volume of airflow. This is the same as not varying your car’s oil and air conditioner filter often enough.

In the last couple of years, we have witnessed many exciting breakthroughs in energy efficiency of newer equipment. A new air con system could help you save profit electricity usage all year long, while at the same time keeping you more leisurely. This new technology in comfort systems is comparable to replacing your car which may still be running, but only gets 10 mpg with the one which gets 30 mpg, or over.
