What Size AC Unit Is Right for My Home?

Choosing the right size air conditioner is crucial for optimal comfort and energy efficiency. An AC unit that's too small will struggle to cool a space adequately, while an oversized unit will cycle on and off frequently, leading to increased wear and tear and higher energy bills. Oregon Heating & Air Conditioning, LLC understands that determining the proper AC size can be confusing. Our team of experts is here to help you make the right decision.

Several factors contribute to determining the appropriate AC size for a home, including:

  • Square footage: The most basic factor is the size of the area that needs to be cooled. Larger homes generally require larger AC units.
  • Climate: Homes in hotter climates need more cooling capacity than those in milder regions.
  • Insulation: Well-insulated homes retain cool air better, potentially allowing for a smaller AC unit.
  • Windows: The number and type of windows in a home affect heat gain and influence AC sizing.
  • Orientation: Homes with south-facing windows receive more direct sunlight and may require a larger AC unit.
  • Ceiling height: Homes with high ceilings have a larger volume of air to cool, potentially necessitating a larger unit.
  • Number of occupants: More people in a home generate more heat, which can influence AC sizing.

When a home has a properly sized AC unit, it will provide optimal comfort, keeping the house cool and comfortable even on the hottest days. This correctly sized unit will operate more efficiently, saving money on energy bills. You may also appreciate improved indoor air quality, as the unit helps to remove humidity. Finally, a properly sized AC unit that isn't overworked will last longer, reducing the need for repairs or premature replacement.

What Is SEER & What Rating Should I Look For?

When investing in a new air conditioning system for a home, energy efficiency is a key factor to consider. A more efficient AC unit not only reduces environmental impact but also saves money on energy bills in the long run. This is where SEER comes in. SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio. It's a measurement that indicates the cooling efficiency of an air conditioner over an entire season. The higher the SEER rating, the more efficiently the unit cools a home.

Think of it like miles per gallon (MPG) for a car. A higher MPG means a driver can travel further on a gallon of gas. Similarly, a higher SEER rating means an AC unit can provide more cooling power for the same amount of energy. The minimum SEER rating for new AC units in Oregon is 13. However, units with SEER ratings of 16 or higher offer significant energy savings compared to older models. While higher SEER units may have a higher upfront cost, the long-term savings on energy bills can more than offset the initial investment.

Factors to consider when choosing a seer rating include:

  • Climate: A higher SEER unit can make a bigger difference in energy bills if you live in a hotter climate.
  • Budget: It's important to balance the upfront cost of a higher SEER unit with the potential long-term energy savings.
  • Home size and insulation: A well-insulated home may allow for a slightly lower SEER unit without sacrificing comfort.

Oregon Heating & Air Conditioning, LLC offers a wide selection of high-SEER air conditioners from leading brands. Our expert technicians can help you choose the most energy-efficient AC unit for your home and budget. We consider the home's specific needs and recommend a system that provides optimal comfort and energy savings.

What Is Involved in the AC Installation Process?

At Oregon Heating & Air Conditioning, LLC, we believe in transparency and keeping our customers informed. Here's a simplified overview of what to expect during an AC installation. Our technician first visits the home to perform a thorough assessment. This includes evaluating the current system (if there is one) to help determine the right size and type of new AC unit needed. We inspect the ductwork for any problems and assess the electrical system to make sure it can handle the new unit. We also find the best location for the outdoor unit. 

If there's an old AC unit, we remove it properly. Then, we install the new system, including the outdoor and indoor units. We connect the refrigerant lines and make sure everything is sealed to prevent leaks. We also connect the electrical and ductwork, facilitating proper airflow. Once installed, we test the new system, checking refrigerant levels, airflow, and temperature. Our team also makes sure there aren't any leaks. Finally, we walk you through the new system, explain how it works, and provide maintenance tips and warranty information. We're committed to making the process smooth and easy.

Our Beaverton AC Installation and replacement experts can help you choose the right size and SEER for optimal home comfort and energy savings. Contact us today at (971) 444-6310 for a free estimate!
