What Is an Air Conditioning Load Calculation?

If you are considering purchasing a new air conditioner or looking closer at the performance of your present system, one of the first points to assess is a load calculation.

What exactly does that mean? Essentially, it comes down to being sure that you get an appropriately-sized system for your home. Buying the improper size or type can have a variety of implications from the inability to keep your house cool to working so hard that it decreases its lifespan.

Every home is different; home size, number of windows and type, insulation and even the direction the home faces are crucial considerations. Bigger isn’t always better. It doesn't make sense to get an air conditioner that is bigger than what's required for your home. The equipment can cost more and you’ll be paying to use a system that is more than what's required. Air conditioners also help to lower humidity levels in the home and an oversized system won't be able to properly dehumidify the air which can also lead to decreased indoor air quality.

You also don’t want a model that is too little and can't to keep up. Not only does this effect the cooling of your home during the warmer seasonal temperatures, but it’ll also make the unit operate harder.

With a number of different models and sizes, it can be a bear to know where to begin. Lucky for you, this isn’t something you need to tackle on your own. The Expert team at Service Experts can give you a full load calculation assessment on your home. The heating and cooling load calculation factors in the home’s structure, roof, windows, direction and location to decide the size and type of equipment needed. Any company that does not provide this detailed analysis can’t properly provide an accurate quote for the replacement of your air conditioner or even provide you the best more accurate price of a new system.

Not only does this assessment help decide which system is best for you, but it will also help you get the extra savings of high-efficiency products. You may not think to think about utility costs when making your budget, but researching more efficient air conditioners and what it can provide will have a positive impact on your family’s budget. Our team can walk you through what is needed to live comfortably in your home and share some tidbits on how to decrease energy usage through various features available.
