ISSUES:  An oversized air conditioning unit can have many negative effects:
  • Increased initial cost for installed heating and cooling equipment
  • Improperly sized duct system, ducting accessories and over-sized indoor blower fan
  • Noise issues from a larger than needed indoor blower fan
Detrimental to:
  • Energy consumption
  • Comfort (air-conditioning is less effective in the summertime, combined with relative humidity issues)
  • Indoor air quality (poor room-to-room air mixing & nuisance drafts from high blower speeds)
  • Varying air temperatures from room-to-room
  • System durability and lifetime expectancy


BENEFITS:  When your house has accurate Heating & Cooling Load Calculations, it has a direct impact on many things:
  • Initial Capital Costs (Lower Installation Dollars- Saving you money)
  • Energy efficiency for the life of the units (lower monthly utilities for correctly sized units- Saving you money)
  • Occupant comfort: improved airflow throughout the house and minimizes relative humidity concerns
  • Minimizes nuisance drafts and reduces system noise from the blower fan & air moving through supply ducts
  • Indoor air quality (less mildew build up within walls during the summer season)
  • Minimized temperature variations between rooms
  • Longevity of equipment (prevents short-cycling of units, units will typically last longer- Saving you money)
