The next factor in your decision process should involve energy efficiency. All air conditioners consume energy in the process of removing heat from the air for home comfort. Air conditioners that are more efficient are better at turning energy consumed into cooled air, reducing the energy needs and financial costs of cooling your home. All air conditioning units are given a SEER rating (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio); the higher a unit’s SEER number, the more efficient it is in terms of energy consumption. Federal regulations require that all air conditioners currently sold in the United States must have a minimum SEER value of 13; however, air conditioners are available with SEER ratings well in excess of this value. Although the initial cost of an air conditioner will depend on its SEER value, with higher-efficiency units costing more upfront, it’s important to keep in mind that the energy efficiency of a unit with a higher SEER value will help to offset its purchase price over the course of its functional lifetime. Our team at Boerne Air Conditioning Experts recommends purchasing an air conditioner with the highest SEER value you can comfortably afford, to gain the most benefit in terms of energy savings when you install and begin using your new air conditioner.
Lastly, you should also take into account whether your ductwork is equipped for single room vs. multi-room. Although the cost of installing ductwork to enjoy a central air conditioning system can be excessive, newer “ductless” mini-split systems can be installed for multi-room cooling using only a small hole in the exterior of your home, typically just three inches in diameter.
