Choosing
to install a central air conditioning system will help you cut down
on your monthly bills. Besides allowing you to provide adequate
cooling to all rooms in your home, you can also make use of the
existing heating duct for the air conditioning. Other benefits
include better air quality and less noise.
When
planning to install a central AC system, consult a home cooling
expert. He may suggest the most suitable unit for your home. If a
unit is too small, it will not be able to completely cool a house
during a hot day and it will cost more to operate because of its
extended operation time. A larger unit also creates problems; the
unit will cool down the home too quickly while not reducing the
moisture in the air.
Another
thing that should go into selecting your unit is its seasonal
energy-efficiency (SEER) rating. This determines how much heat it can
remove from the air for every watt of electricity it uses. High SEER
ratings mean more cold air produced for less energy. You shouldn’t
settle for anything less than a rating of 13.
Installing
an AC can mean the addition of ductwork so as to spread the cooling
effect of your unit all throughout the house. Hire a professional to
do the job to ensure your home is in safe hands. Depending on the
type of unit you go for, it may have to be installed in your attic or
out in your yard.
