No, we aren’t talking about air conditioning systems that are the size of your home. When we talk about oversized air conditioners, we are discussing systems that are set up to produce too much cooling power for your home. While this could sound like a great idea (more cooling power in the summer sounds more comfortable to a lot of people) it is actually one that will produce more problems than anything else.
We want to ensure you are comfortable this summer and the sizing of your air conditioning system plays a huge role in this. Let us explain why having an oversized AC is just as detrimental to your comfort as an undersized one.
Oh no! Your air conditioner is struggling hard and the professional technician who came by to check things out has confirmed your worst fears: you need to retire your current system and install a new one. The issue is that you aren’t sure if it is a good idea to just get the exact same system installed in your home. But what are your options and how do you know which AC system is better?
An air conditioner is going to be a vital part of your home for a large part of the year when you live in West Palm Beach. While many AC units are built to last, they aren’t going to last forever. You are going to need a new air conditioning system after years of use and trust us when we say that you want to get that replacement service done before your current one gives up the ghost.
Summertime is never a season of low heat or dry breezes. Instead, it is usually filled with high temperatures and heavy humidity. This is exactly why it is important to have an effective air conditioning system around to help keep your home cool and dry. Even if you have a wonderful A/C system that has been able to keep you cool and comfortable over the years, it doesn’t mean that it wouldn’t appreciate a little help every now and again.
When you live somewhere like Palm Beach Gardens, you are going to enjoy more even weather patterns throughout the majority of the year. This is great until you remember that it translates to days, weeks, and months of temperatures in the 80s paired with high humidity. What that means is that you need to have an air conditioner that you can rely on.
Maybe you’ve seen it in a movie or even seen it on your neighbors AC unit: that layer of ice around the system that seems to give off the idea that the air conditioner is keeping things really cool. The reality, however, is that ice on an air conditioner is anything but a good sign.
The ductwork in your home is important for delivering the conditioned air required to keep things comfortable and cool throughout the year. Without your ducts, your central air conditioner, or your ducted heat pump, isn’t going to be able to properly do its job. However, hearing that your ducts have sprung a leak can be a little confusing.
Winter is here and we are days away from the first day of January…and we are talking about air conditioning? Yes! Because we are in Florida, most of us use our AC units far more than our heaters throughout the year, making cooling units a subject to discuss no matter what month it is.
The wintertime holiday season is here but Boca Raton is going to have a warm, temperate December, which is par for the course for us. Temperatures are expected to drop by just a few degrees soon, just in time to give us a Christmas week in the 70s…accompanied by thunderstorms galore.
