Air conditioners that are more than ten years old are often inefficient, and may be too large for the space that they are meant to cool. This leads to tremendous loss of energy. To have such a system is almost like throwing money into the air, except no one catches it. Air Conditioning Replacement in Yukon can lead to more comfort in the hot days of summer, with reduced costs from energy bills. Plus, modern energy-efficient systems have less of an impact on the environment.
Air Conditioning Replacement in Yukon is a good idea if a current system makes a lot of noise from rattling, which signifies worn parts. If the home is cooled unevenly, or if it experiences extra humidity, this is also an indication of a unit that is not properly sized for the size of the home. As time passes, the costs of repairing an aging air conditioning system start to make less sense to continue. When it gets to the point the repairs cost half of the cost of a new unit, it is time for Air Conditioning Replacement in Yukon.
All air conditioners have a rating that is called a Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) rating, which is a measure of the cooling impact per an established unit of energy expended. Today, the government requires air conditioners to be rated at least a 14 SEER in order to be labeled for the Energy Star consumer program. There are some extremely efficient models with a 26 SEER rating. While the upfront cost for the Air Conditioning Replacement in Yukon is higher for these models, the products pay off over time due to decreased energy usage. For green builders, this is the option to choose. As the prices of energy spike due to increased demand on fossil fuels, the savings opportunities are quite attractive. The difference in costs to operate a SEER 13 compared to even a SEER 16, run in the range of a few hundred dollars per year.
The costs can seem a little prohibitive when making the choice for Air Conditioning Replacement in Yukon. However, in addition to potential energy savings, customers may also receive more immediate tax incentives and rebates from the government. The EPA is trying to encourage a transition to more efficient and green technologies. In the end, it makes financial sense for TS HEAT & AIR to replace your aging air conditioning system.
