What is HVAC?
HVAC is short for Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning. HVAC is most often used to depict the whole heating and cooling system consisting of the duct work, air filters, humidification controls, and registers.

What is the proper size HVAC system for my home?
Sizing the equipment load requires the consideration of several factors. Ceiling height, construction, window size and placement and dozens of other variables all need to be considered to properly size a heating and/or cooling system. A professionally conducted load calculation is the foundation of an effective system.

Does a larger HVAC system offer better performance?
No, if you get a system that is too large, it will heat or cool your home faster than an adequate sized system causing the system to operate in short cycles. This will cause the system to start and stop more frequently and result in a higher energy bill. If a system is too small, it will run continuously to try attaining the desired temperature which will also result in a higher energy bill. Overall, the best sized HVAC system for your home is based on your home's square footage so that it can heat and cool your house without overworking your system.

How can I find the system that's right for me?
There are many heating and air conditioning systems to choose from today. The size and age of your home, as well as the number of rooms, climate, local and regional utility costs, and utility incentive/rebate programs are all factors that will affect the functionality and, therefore, selection of your system.

Why should I purchase a new heating or air conditioning system?
Purchasing a new unit can be as much as 60% more efficient than a system purchased just 10 years ago and can offer long-term benefits. A new unit will have equal or higher efficiency ratings compared to an older system. Replacing a unit that is 10- to 15-years-old may reduce natural gas or electricity costs by 30 to 50%.​
