Hopefully, you don’t have to purchase new large appliances for your home often. When you have the right appliance in your home, it should last you many years—over a decade in the best cases—and that means you might not have much experience picking out something like a central air conditioning system.
What Should Homeowners Know Before a Heating and Air Conditioning Installation?
- Focus on long-term comfort, efficiency, and system performance—not just upfront cost
- Choose systems with high SEER (cooling) and AFUE (heating) efficiency ratings
- Ensure the unit is properly sized based on your home’s layout, insulation, and square footage
- Have a professional perform a load calculation and inspect existing ductwork
- Select equipment that balances capacity and energy savings
- Hire licensed HVAC installers to maintain warranty and ensure safe, proper installation
