These are the main four reasons why you need to upgrade your HVAC unit. Read on!
Thanks to technology, HVAC unit manufacturers are constantly updating their technology. If you are in the middle of remodeling your home or redecorating it and your system is between 10 and 20 years old, you might want to consider investing in a high-quality HVAC unit. There are quite a few benefits to upgrading your system.
Our guide below will share why you need a high-quality HVAC unit if you’re spending money to make your home look nicer.
Comfort
When you invest in a high-quality HVAC unit, you will have consistent heating and cooling. All the new high-quality heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems will keep the temperature of your home consistent from room to room. Long gone will be the days of getting blasts of cold air or hot air whenever the system kicks on.
There are some newer units that even allow you to only heat or cool the rooms you choose and will let you program the comfort level you desire for each room.
Efficiency
Air conditioning systems use a SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) rating to figure out the cooling efficiency of AC devices. The higher the SEER rating is the more efficient the system is.
The Environmental Protection Agency makes it a requirement for all air conditioning systems to have a SEER ratio of 14 or more. If you have an older system, it is definitely not going to be as efficient as a newer system. The more the system is used the less efficient the unit will be over time because of wear and tear along with debris and dirt buildup.
Efficiency also leads to lower bills because the unit will only run when it is needed without running overtime. This means that it will have a lower impact on the environment.
Better Air Quality
When you invest in a high-quality HVAC unit, you will have better air quality thanks to having better airflow. The fans in the newer systems are very efficient, so they can run all year without you having to worry about your energy bills increasing.
Better air quality inside your home means that any remodeling you do will remain in better condition with less dust. Cleaner air inside your home also helps relieve any respiratory ailments and allergy symptoms.
Better Resale Value
If you are thinking of selling your home in the future, a high-quality HVAC system is a bonus because it will increase the value of your home. A potential buyer will have the bonus of not needing to replace the system soon after buying the home, and they will have a system that also provides them with verifiable energy savings.
Ready to Upgrade Your HVAC Unit?
Whether you are redecorating or remodeling your home, it is important to not skimp on your HVAC unit. Make sure you choose a reputable company that installs a system that will last for years to come. Having all the bells and whistles won’t do you any good if the HVAC is not installed properly.
