We know you have various options when it comes to choosing a cooling system for your Texas home. As one of the hottest states in the country, you need a system you can rely on and one that will give you the most for your money.
For a highly efficient system that won’t eat up your energy usage, and that will serve as an alternative to an expensive fuel-based system, consider the heat pump. Keep reading to see some of the top benefits of installing a heat pump.
When homeowners consider replacing their air conditioner or installing an air conditioner in their new home, they are often quick to assume that the bigger the system is, the better. This is unfortunately not the case, as a larger unit can create unforeseen problems and end up costing you more in the long run.
The problem with an amateur installation, or a do-it-yourself job is that you don’t have professionals there conducting a much-needed cooling load calculation on your home. Simply going by the size of the previous AC system that was in the home or selecting one that “seems” to be the right size is a big mistake.
If you currently have a standard central HVAC unit, chances are that when you cool your home, you are cooling every room in the house at once. This probably means you are conditioning rooms that are unoccupied. While there are benefits to this, particularly for smaller living spaces, overall it’s an inefficient practice.
The solution is zone control cooling. This allows you to divide your home into various “zones”—as few as two and up to as many rooms you have in your home. Each zone is equipped with its own thermostat and cooling controls, which is all linked to one central thermostat, making this a great option for homes with multiple occupants. Below we’ve highlighted the biggest benefits of zone controlled systems.
For most Texans, when you think of insulation, you think of staying warm during the winter. And since winter weather is so short here, it’s easy to see why you might not understand the importance of good attic insulation. Just as insulation keeps heat in your home during the winter, it also keeps heat out of your home during the summer. This in turn reduces your air conditioner’s workload and helps your home cool efficiently.
Today’s homes are being built in a way that makes them “tighter,” meaning there is no way for air to escape. This makes them extremely energy efficient and very beneficial for your HVAC system as it won’t have to work as hard to heat or cool your home. However, due to this the indoor air quality of homes in Texas has been getting worse.
Today’s construction practices don’t allow your home to “breath,” which is causing the indoor air to become more contaminated than the outdoor air. The good news is, we have many products and services available to help combat this.
