Your air conditioner is typically the appliance that uses the most energy on your property, especially during our hot Orangevale and Sacramento summers. All throughout June, July, August, and often September, most of us have our ACs running for hours on end, if not all day.
At some point, you are going to need to replace your air conditioner. Maybe it’s because it has broken down. Maybe it is because it can no longer cool your property. Maybe it is because it is a model with poor energy efficiency, and you’re hoping to save money on your energy bills and reduce your carbon footprint.
No matter the reason, you need to make sure that you receive the right air conditioner for your property. This isn’t just a matter of power. An AC that is too powerful will actually cause almost as many problems as one that is underpowered, because the delicate nature of these appliances requires that they be the perfect fit for your space.
California Energy Consultant Service is an HVAC company in Orangevale, serving the entire Northern California/Sacramento community. Our technicians are some of the best in the entire region, each one receiving substantial training and most with 10+ years of experience.
We’re also not your typical HVAC company. While we specialize in ACs and heating systems, we are also what’s known as an “energy efficiency” company. That means that our focus is not only on connecting you to the right AC, but also making sure that you’re choosing a model and installation type that will lower your energy bills as much as possible and work consistently and comfortably to keep your home cool.
That’s why we know how important it is to pick an AC replacement that is perfect for your exact space. That includes the square footage of your home, whether you have good insulation, the number of levels of your property, and more. We also try to match you with the best and most energy efficient AC to fit your budget, with very competitive rates on both the products themselves and the labor.
If your AC is not powerful enough to cool your entire home, it has to work extra while your home remains hot and muggy. Your energy bills will typically be very high, even though your home never feels like it is cooling down.
ACs that are too powerful (known as having too much “tonnage”) will not be much better. The AC will cycle on and off too quickly, which in turn will mean that it is never on long enough to remove humidity or dust from the air. The rapid cycling means that your home temperature will be inconsistent as well. Unless you also get larger air ducts, your AC will “choke,” which can cause the compressor and indoor fan motors to fail. As a result, your AC becomes more likely to fail faster.
It is these reasons and more that it is so important to find a company that genuinely understands energy efficiency. There is a science to selecting your air conditioner, and all of our technicians thoroughly know and understand this science in order to match you with a new AC that fits your property’s needs.
