Cooling
When considering purchasing a new Air Conditioner for your home, you should know
that today's best air conditioners use 30% to 50% less energy to produce the
same amount of cooling as air conditioners from the mid 1970s. Even if your air
conditioner is only 10 years old, you may be able to save up to 20% or 40% of
your cooling energy costs by replacing it with a newer, and more efficient
model.
An air conditioner's efficiency, performance, durability, and initial cost
depend on matching its size to the following factors:
- The size of your home and the number of windows it has
- The amount of shade on your home's windows, walls, and roof
- How much insulation is in the ceilings and walls of your home
- The amount of air that leaks into your home from outside
- The amount of heat the appliances and occupants in your home generate
Purchasing a larger air conditioner will not provide the best cooling. Buying
an oversized air conditioner will:
- Cost more to buy
- The larger-than-necessary air conditioner will cycle on and off more
frequently, which will reduce its efficiency
- Frequent cycling makes indoor temperatures change more and results in a
less than comfortable environment.
- Frequent cycling also reduces moisture removal. In humid climates,
removing moisture is critical for comfort.
- Cycling also causes wear within the electrical components and compressor
more rapidly.
- A larger air conditioner will use more electricity and create added
demands on electrical generation and delivery systems.
