You’ve spent a lot of money on your new air conditioning system in the hopes that it will keep you dry and comfortable through the hottest, most humid days the Toronto summer can throw at you. In the process, you’ve heard a lot about BTUs and EER ratings and may have even heard that the typical air conditioning system never delivers on its full, rated capacity. While to some extent that’s true there are also tweaks your air conditioner installation tech can make to maximize the performance of your new system.
Here are a few of the steps a good HVAC technician will take to ensure your new air conditioning system is running as close to its rated capacity as possible.
Air flow is crucial to your system’s performance. It’s impossible to measure system effectiveness, refrigerant charge, or anything else unless the airflow is properly adjusted. A good HVAC tech will conduct a few simple tests to verify the proper airflow, make any necessary tweaks, and then adjust the rest of the system accordingly.
It’s important that the sub cooling be adjusted to its correct level to maximize the overall efficiency of the system. Too much and you waste condenser capacity, too little and your refrigerant doesn’t ever fully condense and your system’s efficiency suffers. A good HVAC technician will make sure the sub cooling is properly adjusted.
Central air systems are not renowned for their incredible range of fan settings. To be exact you have a choice of two: ‘on’ or ‘auto’. If set to ‘on’ your fan will blow continuously. A good air conditioner repair and installation tech will always make sure your fan is set to ‘auto’ because this little trick alone could save you $20-30 per month.
In addition to the above tweaks, there are a few other steps a good HVAC tech can take during installation to ensure you won’t be wasting money, including:
