A lot of factors will go into what size heating and cooling unit you’ll need. The type of house you own, its walls, insulation, attic space, and more can go into determining what size unit is required. A system that is too large could result in a home that’s too humid, causing problems with moisture and mold. A system that is too small will run constantly, running up your energy bill. Only a qualified heating and cooling technician can determine what size unit is best for your home.
Heating and cooling units need to have scheduled tune-ups to make sure everything is operating properly. Our HVAC experts recommend an annual inspection and service for each of your heating & cooling units. You don’t want your unit to stop working in the dead of winter or heat of summer!
