It's important to assess whether your current AC unit truly needs replacement. If it's constantly breaking down or not cooling your home effectively, it may be time for a new one. Once you've determined that a replacement is necessary, the next step is to do some research.
Look for reputable HVAC companies or professionals who can help guide you through the process. Robbins AC & Heating is an excellent choice! We will assist in selecting the right size and type of AC unit for your home based on factors such as square footage and insulation. After you've chosen the appropriate AC unit, the installation process begins. This typically involves removing the old AC unit, which might require disconnecting electrical wiring and removing refrigerant properly. It's crucial to hire a trained technician for this part to ensure safety and avoid any damage. Next comes the installation of the new AC unit. The technician will carefully position it in a suitable location, often outside your home, while ensuring proper airflow and accessibility for AC maintenance.
When you're shopping for a new AC system, you'll see something called the SEER rating. This rating tells you how efficient the system is at using energy. The higher the SEER rating, the better it is at saving energy. So when comparing AC systems, make sure to check the SEER rating so you know how much energy it will use. That means your AC will use less energy and save you money on your utility bills.
We also offer improved indoor air quality systems that remove allergens and pollutants from the air, making your environment healthier. We'll work with you to choose an AC unit that meets the needs of your home.
AC tonnage refers to the cooling capacity of an air conditioning system. It measures how much heat the AC unit can remove from a space in one hour. Think of it as the power of your AC to make your room cool and comfortable. Tonnage is not about weight, but rather a measurement of cooling power. Just like a heavy object requires more force to move, a larger space needs a higher tonnage AC unit to effectively cool it down. To put it simply, if you have a bigger room or area that needs to be cooled, you'll need an AC with higher tonnage. On the other hand, for smaller rooms, a lower tonnage AC will do the job just fine. So, when choosing an air conditioning unit for your home or office, consider the size of the space you want to cool and match it with the appropriate tonnage. This way, you'll ensure optimal comfort and energy efficiency without overworking your AC system.
We won't try to sell you a system that is too large for your home. Having a bigger AC unit won't necessarily benefit you or cool your home better, even in these hot Waco summers. If your AC tonnage is too large, it can cause some issues and challenges. You may notice that your AC unit frequently turns on and off, which can be quite bothersome. This rapid cycling can lead to increased energy consumption and higher electricity bills.
Another drawback of having an oversized AC unit is poor humidity control. Your home may feel excessively cold and clammy, making it uncomfortable for you and your family. Additionally, this excessive cooling can result in uneven temperature distribution throughout different rooms in your house.
A bigger AC tonnage than necessary can negatively impact the lifespan of your air conditioning unit. The constant on-off cycles can put unnecessary strain on the system's components, leading to potential breakdowns or costly repairs down the line.
AC mini splits are a game-changer when it comes to cooling your home. With their advanced technology and energy-efficient design, they'll keep your space cool and comfortable while saving you money on your energy bills.
One of the standout features of AC mini splits is their precise temperature control. These units operate quietly, so you can enjoy a peaceful and relaxing environment without any annoying buzzing or rattling noises.
Typically central air is the best option to heat and cool your home, but sometimes a mini-split is a good solution to cool a space such as an attic conversion, which isn't setup to be cooled by your existing central air system. Features include:
Taking care of your HVAC system is important if you want to save money on energy bills and prolong the life of your equipment. Neglecting maintenance can lead to 30-50% higher energy bills and shorten the lifespan of your system. To avoid these issues, make sure to set reminders for replacing your filter regularly so it doesn't get clogged and harm your furnace. Additionally, schedule a maintenance appointment with your local HVAC contractor one year after installation to keep your unit in good shape. Robbins AC & Heating offers maintenance plans that allow you to easily take care of your entire HVAC system without much effort.
