What Should I Consider When Choosing a New Air Conditioner?
When choosing a new air conditioner for your home, there are several important factors to consider. By trusting M.E. Flow with your air conditioning installation in Northern Virginia, you will receive personalized guidance from our experts on what model best suits your needs and budget.
We will help you evaluate the following elements:
- Size. Choosing the right size AC unit is key to ensuring optimal comfort and energy efficiency. An AC system that is too small for a room will struggle to cool the space adequately, resulting in poor performance and frequent discomfort. Other consequences of an undersized AC unit include higher energy costs due to overworking the system as well as increased wear and tear that can reduce the lifespan of components. On the other hand, an air conditioning system that is too large for its environment will cool too quickly, creating temperature swings as it cycles on and off more frequently than necessary. This can also cause high energy bills due to the excessive amount of power being consumed relative to what is needed for optimal cooling performance. To avoid these issues, you should select an air conditioner based on the size of your space. The best way to find out what size AC unit you need is by working with one of our professional heating and cooling technicians, who can help you determine how much cooling capacity is required based on factors such as ceiling height, insulation, square footage, number of occupants, and other factors.
- Feature set. Newer models of AC systems offer many sophisticated features, so it is important to consider what each potential choice does and does not include. Look for features such as energy efficiency ratings, advanced temperature control settings, variable speed compressors, and smart thermostats that can help improve comfort and reduce energy consumption. Smart thermostats are another great feature of some newer models as they offer remote monitoring and control from anywhere using Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connectivity. This added convenience can help you save time and energy while ensuring optimal temperatures in your home. We can discuss what energy efficiency ratings mean for you and how various features can impact your day-to-day life so that you can make an informed decision.
- Noise level. You should verify the noise levels of any AC system you are considering to ensure it will not be intrusive when running. Excessively loud AC systems can create distractions and disrupt your daily activities while also preventing you from getting good rest at night. Fortunately, modern air conditioning systems feature improved designs that can help reduce noise levels significantly when compared to older models.
