4 Advantages of High-Efficiency HVAC Systems

Deciding to install a new HVAC system is not an easy decision to make. We all know how expensive HVAC work can be. In fact, it’s likely one of the larger investments in your home. When you decide to take the leap, make sure you do it with a high-efficiency American Standard system. This upgrade has many benefits, and will make a huge difference in your comfort and your energy usage. Learn about the advantages of high-efficiency HVAC systems now. 

1. Better Air Flow

If you have an older system, you may have experienced decreased airflow before, leaving you uncomfortable in your home. New high-efficiency HVAC systems are built with dependable variable speed motors which will ensure the perfect level of airflow in your home at all times. By consistently running the fan at speeds between 30-100%, your home will be kept more comfortable, and you’ll save money on your energy bills, unlike with systems that constantly stop and start at 0 OR 100%. Variable speed systems’ longer cycles can also improve your home’s air quality. Longer cycles means more air passes through your system, and in turn, your air filters. This means more airborne contaminants will be caught and stopped rather than coming to rest in your home. 

2. Less Noise

Newer manufactured high-efficiency HVAC systems are unbeatable when it comes to noise levels. Our American Standard air conditioning systems operate well below the industry standard for noise levels; perfect for peaceful living. Gone are the days of hearing your system loudly kick on and shut off throughout the day. 

3. Save On Energy

Gulfshore Air offers a wide range of American Standard air conditioning systems, all with varying levels of efficiency. SEER ratings on these systems range from 14 to a whopping 22 SEER. If you’re unsure what that means, SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio. The higher the SEER, the higher the system’s efficiency is and the lower the overall carbon footprint of your house. Our systems have some of the highest efficiency ratings in the industry. With these highly efficient systems, you will notice huge savings on your energy bills over time. 

4. Environmental Impact

New high-efficiency systems are also more environmentally-friendly than older, outdated systems. Since they consume less energy, lower carbon emissions are released. Additionally, modern systems don’t use R-22 (a type of refrigerant which has been found to contribute to ozone depletion). Your new HVAC system can use R-410A, which is an ozone-friendly refrigerant. These small changes make such a huge difference for our environment. After all, Earth Day is this month! Go green!
