Homeowners in Murphy, TX, can benefit from a new AC installation. If an HVAC system is ten years old or older, it is far less energy efficient than today's models. Older units also require more repairs to keep operating as multiple parts wear out. Complications such as the manufacturer no longer making the unit can lead to vital parts becoming scarce or impossible to find. In this case, new AC installation is necessary.
Bill Joplin's Air Conditioning & Heating would like to inform homeowners of the benefits of investing in a new AC installation for their home. The benefits far outweigh the costs and hassles of trying to keep an old unit going until the very last minute.
New technologies on the market allow homeowners to choose environmentally friendly products to cool and heat their houses. These technologies also save money on the utility bill. They use far less electricity than those made more than ten years ago. Some of these technologies are:
• Solar and solar/grid hybrid units are available on the market. There are 48-volt solar-powered ductless AC units that will continue to cool or heat in the event of a power failure. Since they use no grid power, your heating/cooling would be free. Solar/grid hybrid units use both solar panels and grid power. These units report savings of up to 60 percent or more.
• Passive dehumidification units use three different parts to pull more humidity from the air than conventional ones. No additional energy is used in the process. These units claim to remove 50 percent more humidity than other models. Since drier air feels cooler to the skin, you can set the temperature higher to save energy.
• Newer units have up to 24 SEER ratings. The higher the rating, the more efficient the unit will be. Choosing a unit with a high SEER rating and the Energy Star certification can qualify for tax incentives and rebates. Over time, the incentives, rebates and energy savings will pay for the unit, the AC installation and maintenance.
• Home automation is a system that controls curtains, indoor/outdoor lights, security, HVAC systems and more. The system delivers significant savings in the utility bills by controlling the entire house's energy use. There are additional benefits to having home automation. If you lock yourself out of the house, you can let yourself in without a locksmith. The system will turn on outdoor lights, your entertainment system and kitchen appliances on so you come home to a well-lit home with dinner in the oven.
• Ductless split systems are great for older homes. They save energy by heating or cooling single rooms instead of the entire house. New construction is not necessary for their installation.
Other new HVAC technologies are available on the market today to save homeowners money and lessen the impact on the environment.
