We all know just how hot it can be here in this part of California, especially during the summer. Therefore, you deserve to own a great air conditioning system to keep you and your family cool and comfortable all season long! If you own a not-so-great system or if you’re having an AC installed for the first time, you’re in luck!
What’s the Best Way to Choose a New AC and Furnace Replacement System?
Upgrading both your air conditioner and furnace at the same time can improve efficiency, balance comfort, and simplify maintenance. Here’s a focused guide:
- Assess age + repair history: Replace if units are over 12–15 years old, need frequent repairs, or cause rising energy bills.
- Select the right type: Choose a central AC, ductless system, heat pump, or evaporative cooler based on your home’s ductwork, climate, and comfort needs.
- Ensure proper sizing: Have a professional perform a load calculation to match system capacity to your home’s square footage and insulation.
- Install together for compatibility: Matching a high-efficiency AC with a new furnace (or heat pump) ensures optimal system integration and maximum energy savings.
- Hire a licensed HVAC pro: Professional installation guarantees warranty protection, correct refrigerant charge, airflow setup, and safe electrical and duct connections.
