New Air Conditioning Installation: Central Air Services
Most of our new air conditioning installations at Balanced Air Heating & Cooling are for new homes or home owners building an addition. Unlike replacing an existing central air system or air conditioning system, when you're installing a new air conditioning system for the first time you're in a unique position to set up the ductwork and placement to maximize comfort and energy efficiency. It's critical to have a licensed HVAC technician to work-up your new HVAC set-up because most builders are not thinking about the optimum placement of ductwork when designing additions and new builds. A builder is typically thinking about maximizing square footage, which isn't a bad thing, but if you can get an HVAC expert involved early, you may find simple adjustments can make or break your energy bills.
First Time Installation of New Air Conditioning System
If you're a first time home buyer, or a large portion of your house is not benefiting from your central air system, you may be in the market for a new air conditioning system, or a first time central air installation. So what does an HVAC company consider when giving you a quote and a series of recommendations to keep this new home, or new space, comfortable and energy efficient.
- Budget: Your budget for a new air conditioning system is one of our biggest considerations. We understand that if the best of the best is out of the budget, we can work with you to find the best options within your budget.
- Size of AC System: If the air conditioning unit is too small it will have to run all the time, causing big energy bills and minimizing the life of your central air system. On the other hand, if it's too big for the space it will hit the target temperature too soon which can cause humidity issues - not to mention that you will pay too much for a bigger AC system than the space requires.
- Ductwork, Ductwork, Ductwork: The size of the ductwork, the way it's laid out, proper installation to reduce obstructions and proper sealing are all critical components to making sure you're air conditioning system is operating efficiently. If any of these things are overlooked you could be faced with high energy bills, lack of ability to maintain the ideal temperature and possible poor indoor air quality.
