Upgrading your HVAC system to improve efficiency? Want to make sure you’re asking the right questions to maximize your investment in a more efficient system for cooling and heating your Ann Arbor home? Need help making the right choice for an energy efficient HVAC?
1. Rebates and Credits: more efficient systems cost more money, but you may be able to cut your expense. Ask your estimator or contractor about deals, credits, or rebates they know about and ask them to look into more options for you. If you can save a significant amount of money on your system, you might be able to afford an even more efficient unit!
2. System Size: ask that your contractor is getting an accurate assessment of the system size your space needs. Don’t buy a system based on the size of your current HVAC or a rough estimate. If your HVAC is too small or too large, it won’t run efficiently, no matter how hi-tech or expensive it is.
3. Thermostats: the right thermostat will help your system run more efficiently by strategically adjusting the temperature or shutting down. Smart thermostats are a good investment for efficiency, but make sure to ask your contractor about their recommendations and what’s compatible with your new system.
4. Filters: this simple component plays a big role in your system’s ability to operate efficiently. Ask about your options for filters with your new HVAC and recommendations for changing and cleaning. If you need a specific kind of filter for allergies or asthma, ask your contractor about compatibility or alternatives.
