Get back to your comfort zone today by finding the <a href=\"https:\/\/acdesignsinc.net\/ac-replacements\/installation\/\">perfect A\/C system<\/a> for your Northeast Florida home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16846 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/acdesignsinc.imarketbeta.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/ACD_NEFl_Illustration_crab.png\" alt=\"A hermit crab looking for a new shell\" width=\"313\" height=\"250\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><b>Find the Right Size<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your unit needs to be large enough to keep your whole home cool and comfortable. That said, bigger is not always better. Oversized equipment cycles on and off more frequently, shortening its lifespan and making your home less comfortable. You\u2019ll need a certified technician, like the professionals at A\/C Designs, to take measurements of your home and calculate the proper size needed for today\u2019s standards.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16845 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/acdesignsinc.imarketbeta.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/ACD_NEFl_Illustration_bulldog.png\" alt=\"An illustrated bulldog laying in a hammock\" width=\"303\" height=\"242\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><b>Maximize Energy Efficiency\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why spend more on your energy bills than you need to? Check for the Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) when comparing units to help keep your bills low. The minimum required SEER for units installed in Northeast Florida is 14, so look for units with SEER ratings of 14 up to 25. The higher the number, the more efficient your system.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><b>Consider Humidity Control<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16849 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/acdesignsinc.imarketbeta.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/ACD_NEFl_Illustration_panther.png\" alt=\"An illustrated animal holding an umbrella\" width=\"308\" height=\"246\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">High humidity levels cause discomfort for Northeast Florida homeowners year-round. Many homeowners don\u2019t realize that an efficient A\/C unit can dehumidify their home when they have a high Sensible Heat Ratio (SHR). This rating shows how much moisture a unit removes from the air. Systems need a rating of at least 0.7 to handle our summer heat, but this rating often isn\u2019t listed on unit labels. A\/C Designs will make certain you\u2019ve chosen a unit with proper SHR for your home. If your home feels cool but clammy, with heavy, stuffy air, ask us about adding a whole-home dehumidifier to your installation package as well.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16850 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/acdesignsinc.imarketbeta.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/ACD_NEFl_Illustration_skunk.png\" alt=\"An illustrated skunk sitting on an AC unit\" width=\"315\" height=\"252\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><b>Improve Indoor Air Quality<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/acdesignsinc.net\/indoor-air-quality\/\">quality of the air<\/a> that you breathe makes a huge difference in your home comfort. In Northeast Florida, pollen, mold and mildew is a constant issue. Thankfully, the right A\/C unit can help rid your home of these unwanted pollutants. Choose an A\/C system that captures and kills mold, pollens and dust smaller than three microns. At A\/C Designs, we also offer supplemental systems such as UV germicidal lights. When added to your A\/C unit, these can destroy viruses and bacteria, keeping your home healthy and safe.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Ensure Quality Installation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16848 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/acdesignsinc.imarketbeta.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/ACD_NEFl_Illustration_osprey.png\" alt=\"An illustrated osprey inspecting the inside of an AC unit\" width=\"323\" height=\"259\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even the best A\/C unit can malfunction if it isn\u2019t installed properly. At A\/C Designs, our certified technicians ensure that each unit is leveled properly on your property and that all ductwork is connected correctly for maximum efficiency. A\/C Designs will keep your systems running smoothly so you never have to worry about your home comfort.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16847 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/acdesignsinc.imarketbeta.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/ACD_NEFl_Illustration_gator.png\" alt=\"An illustrated alligator swimming toward a treasure chest\" width=\"327\" height=\"262\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><b>Find the Best Warranty<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today\u2019s HVAC manufacturers offer a base five-year warranty on parts and compressors. However, HVAC manufacturer warranties don\u2019t always cover all of the risks associated with owning an A\/C unit. Many warranties are limited, with risks like accidents, storms and critter damage not covered. When buying a new unit, be sure to ask about warranty coverage. At A\/C Designs, we offer an industry-best, ten-year warranty on all parts and compressors as long as you own the home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>Choosing the Right A\/C System for Your Northeast Florida Home<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There\u2019s nothing more important than feeling comfortable in your home.
