Central Air Conditioners

A central air conditioner is a system that cools your entire home by circulating air through a cooling coil that sits inside the duct work on top of your furnace. This cooling coil, also know as evaporator coil, is connected to an outdoor condensing unit that exhausts the heat absorbed through the evaporator. The cool air is spread throughout the ducts in your home. Unlike window units or portable ACs, central air provides even, consistent comfort in every room. It’s not just about staying cool — it’s about maintaining a comfortable, healthy, and energy-efficient living environment during the hottest months of the year.

They come in all different types and sizes. The tonnage (BTU output) of the central air conditioner can range from 1.5 to 5 tons of cooling for residential applications. The SEER rating of an AC is its cooling efficiency. The higher the SEER rating, the more cooling you get out of the same Watt of power used to operate the AC. SEER ratings start from 13 and can go up as high as 25 or more. Single stage air conditioners usually range from low to mid SEER rating. Two stage air conditioners range from mid to high SEER rating. Variable speed air conditioners operate at the highest SEER ratings.

Regular annual maintenance keeps your central air conditioner running at peak performance, prevents costly breakdowns, and extends the life of your system. A well-maintained unit runs more efficiently, saving you money on energy bills and reducing the risk of unexpected repairs during the heat of summer. It's a small investment that protects one of your home's most important systems. Book your annual air conditioning service with us today.
