Recommended Upgrades for your AC System During Summer

Central Florida summers are known for their high temperatures and humidity levels, which can put a lot of strain on your AC system. Are you struggling to keep your home cool and comfortable during this time? If so, your air conditioning (AC) system may be struggling as well.

High temperatures and humidity can put a lot of strain on AC systems, leading to reduced performance and higher energy bills. Fortunately, there are several upgrades you can make to your AC system to improve its efficiency and performance, and keep your home comfortable all summer long.

These Are The Recommended Upgrades for your AC System To Sail Through Summer

• Smart Thermostat

  • Upgrading to a smart thermostat can help you control the temperature of your home more efficiently and save on energy costs.

• High-Efficiency Air Filter

  • A high-efficiency air filter can help improve the quality of the air in your home by removing allergens, dust, and other pollutants.

• UV Light Air Purification System

  • A UV light air purification system can help kill bacteria and viruses in the air, improving the quality of the air in your home.

• Insulation

  • Adding more insulation to your home can help keep the cool air inside and prevent it from escaping, reducing the workload on your AC system.

• Upgrade To A High-Efficiency SEER2 AC System

  • Upgrading to a high-efficiency SEER2 AC system can help you save money on energy costs in the long run, as these new systems are designed to use less energy to cool your home.

• Schedule Regular Maintenance

  • Regular maintenance with Scott’s Air can help keep your AC system running smoothly and catch any issues before they become major problems.

• Consider A Whole-Home Dehumidifier

  • The high humidity levels during summer in Central Florida can make your home feel uncomfortable and put additional strain on your AC system. A whole-home dehumidifier can help reduce humidity levels and improve indoor air quality.

• Float Switch

  • A float switch is recommended for your AC system because it helps prevent water damage caused by a clogged condensate drain, which can occur when your system is working hard to keep your home cool.

• Duct Sealing

  • If your ducts are leaky, you could be losing up to 30% of the cool air that your AC system produces. Sealing your ducts can help prevent this and reduce energy waste.

• Variable-Speed Air Handler

  • A variable-speed air handler can help your AC system run more efficiently and quietly, while also improving indoor air quality.

• Zoning System

  • A zoning system can help you control the temperature in different areas of your home, allowing you to save energy and reduce wear and tear on your AC system.

• Add Attic Ventilation

  • Proper attic ventilation can help prevent hot air from getting trapped in your home, which can reduce the workload on your AC system.

• Use Reflective Window Film

  • Reflective window film can help reduce the amount of heat that enters your home through your windows, which can make it easier for your AC system to keep your home cool.

These upgrades can not only improve the performance of your AC system but also help you save money on energy costs and improve the air quality in your home. It’s important to consult with a professional AC technician to determine which upgrades are best for your specific needs and budget.

Don’t Risk Having a Miserable Summer

If you choose not to make the recommended upgrades to your AC system during the summer in Central Florida, you may experience a variety of consequences, including reduced performance, higher energy bills, inconsistent indoor temperatures, and an increased risk of breakdowns.

Without proper ventilation and insulation, your home may be prone to hot spots or cool spots, leaving certain areas of your home uncomfortable and less livable. Additionally, an inefficient AC system can lead to increased humidity levels, which can result in mold growth and other indoor air quality issues.

The high temperatures and humidity of Central Florida summers can put a lot of strain on your AC system, causing it to work harder and less efficiently.

Without the recommended upgrades, you may notice reduced performance from your system, with longer wait times for the air to cool and increased noise levels. Over time, the strain on your AC system can also lead to mechanical problems and breakdowns, resulting in costly repairs.

By making the recommended upgrades to your AC system, you can help ensure that your system is running at its best, with improved performance, efficiency, and comfort.
