How to Choose an Air Conditioner

When looking for an air conditioner, there are a few things that you should know before making this large purchase. Whether you are new to air conditioning or have experience, it's always good to follow these tips to help you choose the right unit for your home. They may even save you money.

The air conditioner size is essential, as you want one that is large enough to cool down your home but not too large as you'll end up using more energy, which will raise your utilities' costs of your utilities.

You also want to check your home's insulation. A well-insulated home means the cool air will stay where it should, in your home. If you're not sure about the condition of your insulation, you can always call in the experts.

Your ductwork is essential as well, and before you decide on purchasing a central air conditioner, have a specialist come into your home to see if any changes to your ductwork are needed.

If your home isn't suitable for central air or you don't have the space to add additional ductwork, then you have the option of buying a ductless air conditioner.

Ductless air conditioners are individual cooling units set up in various rooms throughout the home or business. The good thing about these units is that they can be set to respective temperatures.

So, if you have someone who enjoys their space a little cooler than others, these units could work for your home or business.

The make and model are also essential, and some companies even offer warranties such as lifetime coverage on compressors. At Twintech, we carry the following units, Amana, Armstrong Air, Goodman, Keeprite and Ruud.

Your thermostat is another crucial factor; you may need to update your thermostat if it's a little older. We recommend purchasing a digital thermostat as you can set your unit to remain at a constant temperature. This will help cut down on energy costs as your home or business will stay at that temperature unless changed.

We know that purchasing air conditioners can get expensive, so we want to make your investment easier by offering financing programs on all of our cooling and heating units.

Our air conditioners start at $33.25/month.
