AC Power & Comfort South Florida’s Top HVAC Company

There are actually a lot of key differences between a commercial HVAC unit and a residential HVAC unit. The size of each of these units will be drastically different. A residential HVAC unit is much smaller than a commercial HVAC system. This is because a commercial HVAC unit will need to cool or heat large spaces like industrial buildings or high-rises. In addition, the placement of a commercial HVAC unit will normally be on a roof, while a residential HVAC unit is commonly placed on the side of the house or somewhere in a backyard. The two units will also vary on the technical side as well, as commercial air conditioning units are much more complex. To learn more about the differences between a commercial HVAC system and a residential HVAC system, give our office a call today.

In order to size an air conditioning unit, you have to take a few things into consideration to properly calculate the right size. First, you have to determine the square footage of your residential home or commercial space. Then, in the air conditioning world, we have to measure something called the base BTU, which stands for the base British Thermal Unit. This is the amount of energy used to cool or heat a space according to the square footage. Finally, you have to take into account other things such as the climate, high ceilings, insulation, and other characteristics of a home or commercial property. After you consider all of these factors, then you can decide on what size is best for your cooling and heating needs.

If you’re needing to size a unit for your residential or commercial property, it’s always best to turn to an air conditioning expert! Contact our HVAC company to learn more about how we calculate the proper size of an HVAC unit for your commercial or residential property.

The cost of residential and commercial HVAC systems will vary. It will depend on things like the size, placement, and your cooling and heating needs. In addition, HVAC units range in price according to different air conditioning brands. If your current unit isn’t working efficiently or you detect there’s an issue, contact our HVAC company as soon as possible. Our goal is to repair, service, and maintain a unit. Our trusted technicians think outside the box and use alternative approaches to repairs that other companies may not try. We’ll only recommend a new HVAC unit after we’ve exhausted all other repair options. Call us to schedule a residential or commercial HVAC inspection today to determine if it’s necessary to purchase a new air conditioning system.

Typically, an air conditioning unit in South Florida can last up to 8 years. However, with periodic maintenance, your air conditioning unit can last up to 15 years. It’s important to remember that if you live by the beach and your outside unit condenser is not coated, then you may be looking at an 8-year lifespan. If you’d like your air conditioning unit to last as long as possible in this harsh South Florida climate, we highly recommend a routine HVAC maintenance plan. We have annual, semi-annual, monthly, bi-monthly, and quarterly plans. Contact our HVAC company today to hear about our HVAC maintenance plan packages, prices, and special deals!

Duct cleaning only depends on how much filth is in the duct stream or if moldy. If you see mold on your vents in several locations of your home, then there’s a chance that you might need duct cleaning. If you have a moldy odor, but no mold growth is visible on your vents, then the targeted area would only have to be at the evaporator coil/plenum (also known as the inside unit air handler). It is not necessary to clean ducts if there is no sign of dirt or mold in the vent stream. However, your first step is to get your ducts inspected. Contact our HVAC company today to schedule a free duct inspection!

At the very minimum, we recommend at least quarterly maintenance checks on your HVAC system, regardless of how new it is or if it’s a residential HVAC system or a commercial HVAC system. If you want your air conditioning system to work for as long as possible in the humid Florida climate, regular checks are key to an HVAC unit’s longevity. Our HVAC company offers monthly, bi-monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, and annual maintenance packages that can prevent system failures before they start, keep your equipment clean, and make sure your HVAC system is working efficiently.
