Is Your AC System Correctly Sized?

When the time comes to purchase a new AC systems, many home owners tend to think that bigger is better, even though that’s not always true.

At the same time, there’s a very good reason for such a popular misconception. By the time you’re ready to replace your AC system,

it’s lost a good deal of its efficiency and most likely can no longer adequately cool your home.

Well, if you’ve been putting up with that reduced indoor comfort for any length of time, you may have forgotten how efficient it once was.

All you know is that it’s lacking in cooling capacity now; hence, you might reason, it probably will take a bigger system to do the job correctly the next time. 

We’re here to put that misconception to bed and advise you that both over-sized and under-sized AC systems are going to cause you trouble.
