AC Installation Tidbit: Size Matters

With new air conditioner installations, one of the first and most important steps to consider is determining the ideal size of unit for the space you want to cool. AC units come in a variety of sizes. A unit that's too large won't run efficiently; it will cool your home rapidly, then shut off until your house warms up. While this will keep your home cool, your AC unit won't be running through its natural energy cycle, which will drive up your energy bill. A unit that's too small, on the other hand, will be working constantly to try to cool your home. A properly sized AC unit will run efficiently, keeping your home cool and not staying on longer than it needs to.

An expert HVAC company can expertly calculate the AC unit size you'll need for your home. Call M&M Mechanical today to schedule a consultation. We'll evaluate your home's size and energy usage to determine the most efficient unit for you. We can then complete the AC installation project so that you can go back to enjoying your summer in comfortable temperatures.

Signs it's Time for AC Installation & Replacement Service

  • Age: Air conditioners typically last about 20 years. If you are approaching the 20-year mark or have surpassed it, you likely need a new AC.
  • Limited Airflow: If your AC is not pumping out cool air within a few minutes, it isn't working properly. There are many causes for this such as clogged vents. Regardless of the cause, this is a sign that you need to, at least,  have your air conditioner repaired or cleaned.
  • Moisture: AC units will produce moisture, but properly functioning ones should handle it without an issue. If you are noticing a buildup of moisture around the unit, there is an issue. It could be a refrigerant leak that will cause your AC to underperform.
  • Strange Sounds: Is your AC much louder than when you first bought it? Do you hear grinding, squeaking, or chattering coming from the unit? Then there are internal parts that are old and worn out.
  • High Energy Bills: As AC units become old and parts become worn out, they become less energy efficient. This will cause a spike in your energy bills. If your bills have been much higher than in previous years, you likely need a new AC.

When is the Best Time of Year for AC Installation?

Don't believe everything you hear - though you may have been told that winter is the best time to buy a new air conditioner, this isn't necessarily the case. Most people actually purchase their air conditioning units in the summer, and for good reason. You may think that you can find a better deal in the winter than in the summer, but that's not true - many manufacturers lower their prices or offer deals in the summertime in order to compete in the market. You can still find deals, plus you'll have a larger selection of units to choose from for your new AC installation. Most manufacturers roll out new options as the weather warms up. There's no such thing as an "off" season when it comes to HVAC - if you need AC installation or replacement in Southington or West Hartford, CT, don't wait to call on us!
