One of the most important things homeowners look for in an air conditioner, other than keeping them cool, is energy efficiency. Whether you are looking for an air conditioner replacement or would like to get the most out of the efficiency of an existing system, being energy efficient is important. Heating and cooling bills can make up nearly half of your total heating and cooling bills, so we want to help you do everything you can to not only keep cool but keep costs down.
If you’re considering air conditioner replacement you’ve probably noted that each unit has a SEER rating. SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio and is a reflection of the efficiency of your air conditioner. The higher the SEER rating, the higher the efficiency, which means the lower the utility costs. The government orders a minimum SEER rating for all equipment that was produced after 2015, that number is based on region. Our certified pros will work with you and look at your home to help you make the best decision when considering air conditioner replacement.
If you’re looking to get the most efficiency possible out of your current unit, there are a variety of things you can do. First, as we always try to remind people, swap out your air filters. A dirty filter will cause your air conditioner to operate harder to keep you cool. Keeping it clean will help with efficiency, keep your air clean and improve the life of your unit. We don’t want to sound like a broken record, but it’s a big deal.
Another thing to do is keep up with annual maintenance. Our certified experts will clean your unit, check electrical connections and catch any problems that might be impacting the efficiency of your unit.
Our experts will work to keep you comfortable and save you money. We know what a large investment your air conditioner is, and we want to keep it running at its best and help you save money on your utility bills in the process. Give us a call at (832) 501-3419.
