When it comes to your heating and air conditioning system, bigger isn't always better.

The Wrong System Size Could Cost You

 An air conditioning system that is too large will cool or heat your house quickly, but you still may not feel comfortable. That's because it will satisfy the temperature setting on your thermostat before it can adequately remove sufficient moisture from the air—which is what makes you feel so sticky and uncomfortable in summer. What's more, the stress of short cycling (too many starts and stops) will shorten the life of your air conditioner equipment, increase your chances of needing air conditioning repairs and increase your heating and air conditioning bills.

A home A/C system that is too small just cannot get the job done. The air conditioner will run constantly in the summer and the furnace will do the same in winter, which may overtax your air condition system and increase your energy consumption and again increase your chances for a nasty air conditioning repair in El Paso.

Consult Your SoBellas Comfort Specialist

 In most homes across the country, AC systems are in fact too large. And an over sized system not only makes it more difficult to control your comfort levels, it costs you money, because you're essentially paying to heat or cool space that isn't even there. That's why a properly completed load calculation is so important. Your independent SoBellas Home Services dealer in El Paso can determine the correct system type and size for your home by doing a room-by-room load calculation. This heat loss/heat gain analysis is the best indicator of the correct system size and takes into consideration many critical factors.
