Features to Look for in a New Air Conditioning System

Today’s air conditioners are more efficient than ever and they offer great features that make them quieter and easier to operate. Even the most economical systems offer great performance, and here are some of the primary features that you should consider when choosing a new air conditioning system:

• Two-stage cooling – This feature allows the air conditioner to operate at a less demanding, more efficient state when temperatures are mild, with plenty of power left to ramp up the cooling during hotter weather.
• Variable-speed blower – A variable-speed blower in the air handler or furnace allows the air conditioner to adjust the fan speed according to demand, allowing for quieter, more efficient operation during mild weather.
• High-efficiency cooling – Older air conditioners are often less than 14 SEER, while today’s models can be rated from 14 to over 20 SEER, resulting in significant energy savings. A higher-rated model may cost more initially, but it will save money in the long term.
• Zoned cooling – Some air conditioning systems allow multiple zones of cooling that can be independently controlled to dial in your ideal level of comfort.
• Smart thermostats – With touch screens, Wi-Fi connectivity, and the ability to be controlled from mobile phone apps, smart thermostats are available for many AC models, providing unparalleled convenience, control, and energy savings.

Our experts at Travis Crawford Heating, Cooling & Plumbing can explain all these features to you and help you select an air conditioning system that is most appropriate for your needs and budget.
