A bigger system is not always better
One of the most important factors when purchasing a central air conditioning system is that it's the appropriate size. Bigger is not necessarily better. If your system is too big, it won't be as effective at dehumidifying, which will make your home feel hotter. An system that's too small won't be able to cool your house the right way. It will be overworked, use a lot of electricity, run loudly and be likely to have premature failure.

A professional installer is trained to consider various factors that determine the right size of air conditioning equipment to meet the specific needs of your home - beyond square footage. Factors such as the age of the house, its size, how many stories it has, how well it's insulated, the number and quality of windows, and even local energy rates. Once you know the proper size of air conditioning unit required for your home, you can compare different models for energy efficiency, price, warranties offered, quiet operation, etc.
