An air conditioner’s location makes a big difference in its ability to cool down a room and maintain the temperature. For example, the air conditioner’s condenser needs to be stored in a place with plenty of shade. If the condenser receives too much sunlight, the whole system will be affected. When the condenser becomes overheated, the unit will not be able to produce enough airflow. Our professionals at Duct Professor Heating & Cooling can help find the right location for the new AC. They will carefully assess your home to guide you in selecting from a range of options.

Anyone purchasing an air conditioner for their home or business will want an efficient system to cut down energy costs. The best way to discover whether your system is effective at saving energy is by looking at its SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) rating. The higher this ratio is, the better the unit is at cooling the inside of your property while using the least energy.
The U.S. Department of Energy requires that different locations in the country have a minimum SEER rating, usually between 13 and 14. However, higher quality air conditioners can have even greater levels of efficiency, going up to 21 or 22. To determine which system would maximize monthly savings, speak to one of our knowledgeable technicians.
On average, air conditioning units last between 10 and 15 years.
This time frame can be affected by a number of factors, including:
To enjoy reliable cooling for one’s home or business, the air conditioner must be correctly sized. While it might seem like a bigger AC would provide more cooling, the reality is that a unit that is too large for a building will just end up wasting energy. Additionally, the cycle will turn on and off too quickly, so it will not provide a proper amount of dehumidification.
On the other hand, if the system is too small, it will not adequately cool down the whole property. The layout of the rooms and the location of the unit also greatly affects how well the air conditioning is distributed to different spots of the home. These factors are difficult to determine independently, that’s why discussing these elements with a knowledgeable technician is the best way to find the optimal system.
