REPLACING FURNACE AND AC TOGETHER?
“Should I replace my Air Conditioner and Furnace at the same time?” We are frequently asked this question and the short answer is – it really depends. Replacement of your Furnace and AC typically depends on your home’s age, the age of the units, the climate conditions and the features and efficiencies you desire. A matched system is probably the best choice – keeping in mind your home and budget.
Two New Systems = One Comfortable Home
There are a few things to consider when shopping for new Furnace and AC systems. It is important to note new technologies, efficiencies and warranties.
Furnaces
When replacing your Furnace – bigger is not always better. A Furnace that is too big for your home will heat your home too quickly. This results in the Furnace starting and stopping frequently, which is hard on your system.
Consider the differences between single and two-stage systems.
Understand potential savings associated with High Efficiency Furnaces. Consider the AFUE rating.
Air Conditioners
When replacing your Air Conditioner – it is important to have an appropriately sized unit.
Consider potential savings with the SEER rating. The higher the SEER rating, the less energy used.
