In general, if your system is more than 8 years old, it’s recommended to replace the outdoor unit and the evaporator coil at the same time. This is because a new coil may not match the outdoor unit in terms of SEER2 or refrigerant. A mismatch can cause decreased energy efficiency, high energy bills, frequent repairs, premature failure, and reduced comfort. Because of an industry-wide refrigerant transition, if your AC or heat pump system uses R-22, there may not be a compatible replacement AC coil available. Similarly, with the phase out of R-410A, compatible evaporator coils may be harder to come by. As of this writing, we are still making R-410A coils for warranty replacements. If your system is still under warranty, the cost of the coil should be covered, but you would be responsible for labor costs and additional materials. Replacing the evaporator coil is labor-intensive and can take up to 3 hours.

What is SEER?

In the heating and cooling industry, SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio. A SEER rating is the ratio developed when the cooling output of the system over an average cooling season is divided by the total energy used. More simply, SEER is representative of how much energy and money the unit requires to operate effectively over a single year.

What is a Two-Stage System?

Single-stage, or single-speed, systems are the most basic systems. They have two settings: on or off, meaning they operate at full capacity or not at all. Two-stage systems offer a middle ground setting, usually at 65% capacity. Variable speed systems can operate anywhere from 25 percent capacity to 100 percent capacity, adjusting based on temperature and humidity conditions to meet your needs.

Factors to Consider When Choosing Between a Heat Pump and AC/Furnace

Heat pumps and air conditioners use the same technology to cool your home. They share the same energy-efficient features. Minus a few small technical differences, heat pumps and air conditioners cool your home in the same way, with no real difference in comfort quality, energy efficiency or energy costs. The main difference between heat pumps and air conditioners is that a heat pump can also heat your home while an air conditioner can’t. An air conditioner needs to be paired with a furnace for a home to have full central heating and cooling.
