What To Look For In A New HVAC System

Some factors when buying a new system may seem confusing. That is why it is important to contact a knowledgeable HVAC company in Norman, OK like Americare. Here are a few basic terms you may hear:

  • BTU

    A British Thermal Unit (BTU ) is a commonly used unit of measure for energy use in heating and cooling equipment. It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit.

  • Ton

    A ton is the cooling capacity of an air conditioning system. One ton is equal to the amount of heat required (288,000 Btu) to melt one ton of ice in a 24-hour period. A one-ton air conditioner is rated at 12,000 BTU per hour (288,000/24). A two-ton unit would be rated at 24,000 BTU per hour. Typical residential central heating systems provide up to 5-tons of cooling. Commercial systems can range anywhere from small, three-ton rooftop units, to 1,500-ton chiller systems. Why a ton of ice? The term is leftover from the days before mechanical cooling when ice was an essential part of refrigeration.

  • SEER

    Seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) is a measure of efficiency over an entire cooling season, as opposed to a single outdoor temperature. Residential units are rated in SEER. SEER is used as a more practical measure, since the temperature outside is not always 95ºF. In addition, the denominator is in watt-hours, not in watts. The same relationship holds-a higher SEER means the system is more efficient. SEER is the total amount of cooling the air conditioner provides over the entire cooling season divided by the total number of watt-hours it consumes.

  • EER

    Energy efficiency ratio (EER) is a measure of how efficiently a cooling system operates when the outdoor temperature is at a specified level (95°F). A higher EER means the system is more efficient and will use less energy for the same cooling output.
