FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do I choose the right size air conditioner for my home?
Choosing the right size air conditioner is crucial for efficiency and comfort. An AC that's too large will cycle on and off frequently, leading to inefficient energy use and uneven cooling. Conversely, an undersized unit will struggle to cool your space adequately. Our team evaluates various factors, including square footage, ceiling height, insulation quality, window sizes, and your home's orientation to sunlight. Based on these factors, we calculate the appropriate tonnage and BTU (British Thermal Unit) needed for your space, ensuring the AC unit is perfectly suited to your home's specific cooling requirements.
How long does the installation process take?
The time required to install a new air conditioning system varies depending on several factors. A straightforward installation of a standard central air system in a home with existing ductwork might take a day. However, installations involving extensive ductwork modification, or the setup of more complex systems like ductless mini-splits, could take several days. We ensure that you are informed of the expected timeline in advance and work efficiently to minimize disruption without compromising the quality of the installation.
Are new AC systems energy-efficient?
Modern air conditioning systems are far more energy-efficient than older models, thanks to advancements in technology and stricter energy regulations. Newer models come with higher SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) ratings, indicating better energy efficiency. We help you navigate these options, explaining the long-term savings on energy bills and environmental impacts. Investing in a high-efficiency AC system can significantly reduce your carbon footprint while maintaining optimal comfort levels.
Can I install an air conditioner if I don’t have existing ductwork?
Yes, homes without existing ductwork have the option of installing ductless mini-split systems. These systems consist of an outdoor compressor unit and one or more indoor air handling units, connected by a small conduit. They offer flexible placement options and can provide zoned cooling without the need for extensive ductwork. This makes them an excellent choice for older homes, additions, or specific areas in your home that need additional cooling.
What is the lifespan of a new air conditioning system?
A new air conditioning system typically lasts between 10 to 15 years, although this can vary based on the brand, model, usage patterns, and how well it is maintained. Regular maintenance, such as annual servicing and prompt repairs, can extend the life of your AC unit. Environmental factors and usage frequency in the specific climate of Fort Collins and Loveland also play a role in the longevity of the system.
Does installing a new AC system increase property value?
Installing a new, efficient air conditioning system can indeed increase your property's value and appeal. Modern AC systems are an attractive feature for potential buyers, particularly in regions with warmer climates like Fort Collins and Loveland. They not only enhance the comfort of your property but also signify a property that has been well-maintained and updated. This can be especially beneficial in older homes where updated HVAC systems are less common.
