Choosing the right air conditioner for your home isn’t just about picking a trusted brand or the highest SEER rating. One of the most critical factors in comfort, efficiency, and long-term performance is proper sizing. An air conditioner that’s too large or too small for your home can lead to problems like inconsistent temperatures, high energy bills, and premature system failure.

Here’s why correct sizing matters and how HVAC professionals determine the ideal fit for your home when you get AC installation in Orlando, FL.

If you’ve got an aging air conditioner, you may already have realized that it’s not as efficient as it once was. Maintenance, performed by a qualified professional once a year, can keep AC efficiency pretty steady for quite a while. But eventually, even that won’t be enough to prevent the efficiency of your air conditioner from dropping.

Here’s something you might not have known, though: today’s efficient air conditioners are far and away more efficient than even the top-of-the-line systems were when you bought your last air conditioner. Not just more efficient than those air conditioners are now—more efficient than they were when they were brand-new. How are these new high-efficiency air conditioners able to save so much energy? We’ll tell you!

Why It’s Finally Time for AC

Monday, August 8th, 2022

Air conditioning isn’t really a luxury anymore. But with how expensive some air conditioner models can be, they’re not really classified as a necessity either. They exist in the same place as cars do, being necessary for some people and luxuries for others.

For us in Orlando, air conditioners provide so many amazing benefits for the cost to run them that they’re almost always worth the cost. We challenge anyone out there to find a homeowner who has purchased an air conditioner and hasn’t run it at all for an entire summer.

So, this blog post is going to talk about three specific reasons why a residential air conditioner is a good purchase for even homes on tight budgets. With systems reaching new efficiency levels each year, you could keep your home cool and comfortable for a reasonable price, as long as you call a pro for AC installation in Orlando, FL!

It’s Time to Upgrade From a Window Unit

Monday, July 25th, 2022

Window unit air conditioners are probably the most common system we see used across the country. In the north they’re perfectly fine, since summertime isn’t very long or hot. A window unit to ensure everyone sleeps on a hot night is usually enough to make it through a summer heatwave.

However, where we live, it’s a lot harder to function in your day to day life without a central air conditioner or heat pump. Window units just don’t have the power or the capacity to be able to let you live your life in the space you need to. Especially for families that require a lot of space, where each kid or family member has their own room, you’ll quickly find that you need multiple window units.

Today, we’re going to make the case as to why your next AC installation in Orlando should be a central AC unit or a heat pump.
