Conducting an assessment is the first step before planning to upgrade your air conditioner. A qualified electrician can check your home's current level of service and determine if you can add another circuit to your service panel. This professional can also conduct a thorough review of your workspace and determine how many switches are needed for your new climate system. After the switches are installed, all areas of your space can receive adequate heating and cooling.
If you already have an air conditioner unit that you want to replace, there are some unique considerations. Receptacles can help you identify if the outlet you plan to use for your air conditioner is sufficient or if it requires installation by an electrician. Partnering with an electrician or electrical contractor who is knowledgeable in electrical system repairs can help you plan all aspects of installing your air conditioning system and guarantee that the system is well equipped to meet your electrical needs. UES works with leading HVAC equipment manufacturers and contractors to save you time and money when installing your HVAC system. Some units offer interchangeable cables, while others must be ordered with the correct cable pre-installed.
Even if your home already has ducts to hold your new air conditioner, it's important to check that the ducts are properly sealed. A split system includes an outdoor unit and an indoor cabinet, while the packaged type is placed in a cabinet located outside or on the roof of the house. Homeowners who already know that there is a problem with their electrical systems should contact an electrician right away. If you are planning to maintain your own air conditioning unit, it makes sense that you would want to install it from scratch. With the help of this professional, you can keep your thermostat in the right place and keep your heating and cooling bills as low as possible.
It's acceptable to buy and install a used air conditioner unit, but then you run the risk that it won't work properly or that it consumes less energy than a newly purchased model. Although the cost of an air conditioner unit is likely to be higher if you buy it on your own (many companies enjoy significant discounts with the manufacturers of air conditioning units when they buy directly from the brand), you'll save on installation costs if you do the work yourself. Packaged units are those that can also function as a heater with the addition of electric heating coils or a gas oven.Installing an air conditioner in your home requires careful consideration of both electrical and mechanical components. To ensure that everything runs smoothly, it's important to consult with a qualified electrician who can assess your current electrical system and determine if it can handle an AC installation. This professional can also help you select the right type of air conditioner for your home and provide guidance on how to install it correctly. At UES, we understand how important it is for homeowners to have a reliable air conditioning system in their homes.
