A new air conditioner should be a fifteen-year decision, and the installation day determines most of it. The industry's open secret is that a poorly installed system gives up a large slice of its rated efficiency before it ever cools a room: an oversized unit short-cycles, dehumidifies poorly, and leaves a Broomfield house cold but clammy; an undersized one runs flat-out and never catches up on the worst afternoons. That is why Broomfield HVAC starts every installation with a real load calculation, measuring your home's square footage, insulation, window exposure, and duct system, instead of matching the tonnage bolted to the wall by the last contractor.
Our most requested repair is AC Repair. Start there if your system isn't running right.
Warning Signs for AC Installation
Recognizing the warning signs early can save you time and money. Watch for these telltale signs:
- Higher cooling costs each year with less comfort to show for it
- Your current AC is past the twelve-to-fifteen-year mark
- Hot spots and warm rooms the AC can never catch up with
- More frequent repairs, each one costing more than the last
- A major repair, like a dead compressor or leaking evaporator, on aging equipment
- Rooms that feel cool but clammy, often a sign the unit is oversized
- An AC that cannot keep up on the hottest days, no matter how long it runs
- Equipment that depends on R-22, a refrigerant no longer produced
