Imagine if we told you that your faucet would continuously leak hot water for the next two decades. You’d probably rush to fix it, right? What if it was your home comfort system? Instead of a faucet, it could be your gas burners, compressor, and/or fan motor slowly draining your bank account with every cycle. Your carbon footprint rises, while your net worth falls. But don’t worry, you’re not alone. Most homeowners aren’t aware if their system is inefficient or poorly designed. After all, that’s what an HVAC specialist is for.
Amateurs vs. HVAC Specialists
Day in and day out, we go out on calls to repair, replace and diagnose systems. We see all sorts of HVAC system designs and we get to see a lot of other people’s work. Some are good and some, not so good. Companies and technicians that don’t take the time to consistently educate and familiarize themselves with the newest regulations, standards, technology and techniques will end up installing inefficient systems with oversized equipment and undersized ducting.
For example, we hear so many stories about the room over the garage and how poorly it’s heated in winter and cooled in summer. This is usually the result of a bad design. Bad designs cost you money and comfort.
In most cases, proper equipment sizing and selection can minimize or eliminate the problem altogether. An HVAC specialist does all this and ensures you have the most effective and efficient system for your home and comfort needs. Instead of cranking your thermostat up or down to compensate for improperly conditioned rooms, a proper design and professional installation of the proper equipment and ductwork would prevent the problem and save you time and money.
