Do
you need a new system?
.
Air-conditioning energy costs can account for 59 percent
of your electric bill during peak heating
and cooling months. So before you
spend money to repair your air-conditioning system or invest
in
a new one, consider these questions to help evaluate the condition of your existing system:
Does your system
undergo frequent repairs?
Has your system experienced major
component failure?
Are you continually receiving high electric bills?
ls your air conditioner working harder to keep your home cool?
lf your system is more than 10 years old and you answered yes to any of these questions you
may benefit from replacing your system and taking advantage of lower
long-term costs.
.
.
Evaluate your
options
.
Key information you'll want your contractor to provide before
making a final decision:
.
-
Estimate - have your contractor prepare a written estimate that includes:
-
System type - straight cool or heat pump?
- Efficiency - what efficiency rating
is recommended?
- Size - you will need a heat load calculation to determine the correct
size unit
FPL rebates - rebate
amounts
.
- Additional rebates- are the rebates available?
- Warranty - how long are parts and labor covered?
- Price - be sure
final cost is include any changes to your home electrical or Duct system
and
ask if duct size is appropriate for your new system.
- Efficiency Extras - ask your contractor these important questions:
- Are
preventive maintenance programs available?
- Will a programmable thermostat help you
save even more?
- Does your duct system have holes or leaks that need repair?
- ls your home's ceiling sufficiently insulated?
.
Choose the system that's
right for you
.
.
When shopping for a new air-conditioning system, it's important to find one that best fits
your household's needs.
The main types of systems to consider are:
> Straight cool system
- An air-conditioning
system that includes cooling equipment only
- A gas, oil or electric strip heater may
be included in this type of system
> Heat pump system- Includes cooling and heating equipment- Heats your home at about
half the cost of conventional electric strip heating!
- Costs slightly more than
a straight cool system
- Most suitable for homes in Central and North Florida
