What is an Air Conditioning Load Calculation?

If you are thinking about buying a new air conditioner or taking a closer look at the performance of your current system, one of the first things to consider is a load calculation. 

What exactly does that mean? Really, it comes down to making sure that you get an appropriately-sized system for your home. Getting the improper size or type can have many consequences from the inability to keep your house cool to working so hard that it decreases its lifespan. 

Every home is different; home size, number of windows and type, insulation and even the direction the home faces are key considerations. Bigger isn’t always better. It doesn’t make sense to purchase an air conditioner that is bigger than needed for your home. The equipment can cost more and you’ll be paying to run a system that is more than what you need. Air conditioners also help to decrease humidity levels in the home and an oversized system won’t be able to properly dehumidify the air which could also lead to poor indoor air quality

You also don’t want a model that isn’t big enough and unable to keep up. Not only does this play a role in the cooling of your home during the warmer seasonal temperatures, but it’ll also make the unit operate harder. 

With hundreds of different models and sizes, it can be overwhelming to know where to start. Lucky for you, this isn’t something you need to tackle on your own. The Expert team at Falso Service Experts can provide you with a full load calculation assessment on your home. The heating and cooling load calculation includes factors like the home’s structure, roof, windows, direction and location to determine the size and type of equipment needed. Any company that doesn’t provide this detailed analysis can’t properly give you an accurate quote for the replacement of your air conditioner or even give you the best more accurate price of a new system. 

Not only does this assessment help determine which system is best for you, but it will also help you see the extra savings of high-efficiency products. You may not think to factor in utility costs when pondering your budget, but researching more efficient air conditioners and what it can give you will have a positive influence on your family’s budget. Our experts can walk you through what is needed to live comfortably in your home and share some thoughts on how to decrease energy usage through various features available. 

Whether you need a new air conditioning system or looking to improve your home’s efficiency and comfort level, the experts at Falso Service Experts in East Syracuse are happy to help. You can call us at 315-313-6531 or easily request an appointment with our online scheduler
