Value of Our Installation

The North Caroline Alternative Energy Corporation, a nonprofit organization, examined air conditioning manufacturers' efficiencies versus the actual efficiencies that resulted after installation; they found the following:  90% of the units testing exhibited some sort of energy wasting, comfort robbing problem!  Other significant HVAC industry comfort &energy related surveys reveal*

 

 

Duct Leakage (93%)

  • Poor indoor air quality

  • Health and safety concerns

  • Drafts and uneven temperature

  • May double HVAC portion of the energy bill

Over-sizing (47%)

  • Doesn’t run enough to wring out moisture

  • Air in sunlit & shaded rooms does not mix

  • Equipment typically noisier

  • Shorter equipment life

Incorrect Refrigerant Charge (54%)

  • Increased failure rate

  • Reduced moisture removal

  • Equipment typically noisier

  • Uneven temperature

  • Could add as much as 17% to operating costs

Incorrect Air Flow (70%)

  • Uneven temperatures

  • Poor moisture control

  • Noisy grilles and registers

  • Could add as much as 10% to operating costs

*Texas A&M University, Louisiana State University & Gulf States Utility, Lakeland Electric & Water, Pacific Gas & Electric, American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy, etc. These studies address at least one problem a poor installation plays on comfort or energy cost. Occurrences have been averaged.
