Types of AC Units We Install in Sacramento

There are a few choices when it comes to types of AC units. The type of cooling system you choose should be based on the architecture of your Sacramento home, your environmental consciousness, and the size of your home.
Central AC units cool you home by pumping cold air through ducts in your walls and attic. With split systems, the evaporator coil is typically inside your home, so if you have limited space, you may want to choose a mini-split or heat pump.
Mini-split systems eliminate the need for ductwork by using thin copper tubing that pumps refrigerant directly to wall mounted blowers inside one room. This also works in reverse in winter, absorbing heat from the outside air and moving it indoors to heat your home.
Similar to mini-split systems, heat pumps absorb the air from the outside and remove the heat from it, creating a nice flow of cold air inside. Heat pumps do use ductwork, unless you specify for a ductless heat pump. In a reverse cycle, you can use a heat pump to heat your home as well.
Using pipes buried deep in the ground, geothermal AC units use water and the earth’s temperature to extract heat from the air and pump out chilled air through ductwork. This is the most energy-efficient type of AC unit.

Our trained specialists will help you choose the best AC unit for you and your family, and we offer up-front and honest pricing. We’re not happy unless you’re happy, so we’ll make sure your new air conditioner installation or replacement works as efficiently as possible.

Should You Install a New Air Conditioner in Sacramento?

If you’re not sure whether you need a new Sacramento air conditioner installation, you’re not alone. It can be confusing, especially if you inherited it when you moved into a new California home. If you know your air conditioner is at least 10-15 years old, it’s worth it to have a professional come out and inspect it.

Older air conditioners probably don’t have as high efficiency as newer ones, because standards set by the Department of Energy have changed. One of the biggest reasons we see people install new air conditioners is that it saves them money on their cooling bills in the long run. It’s likely that a new air conditioner will automatically have a higher efficiency than an older one.

When Should I Get My Air Conditioner Replaced?

Typically, you should replace your air conditioner every 10-15 years or when you notice any of the following signs:
If you need more than two major repairs in any season, there is no question you need an air conditioner replacement. Even if you’ve had repairs any time in the last two years, you should consider an upgrade or new air conditioner installation.
Despite costs steadily rising year over year, your cooling bills shouldn’t creep up that much. If you notice a large increase, you may need to get a new air conditioner.

 If it never seems like your home is cool enough, you may need get a new cooling system installed.

If you or your family have noticed a decline in air quality in your home, it could very well be your air conditioner or HVAC system in general.

A big mistake we see lots of folks in the Sacramento area make is putting off replacing their air conditioner, opting to continually get repairs instead. You’re actually losing money when you do that! Modern AC units are more energy-efficient than models from even five years ago, and the savings you get from monthly energy bills should pay for your unit within five years. Since AC units last at least 10-15 years, that’s a whole 10 years of cash-in-your-pocket savings!

When selecting your replacement AC unit, look for the ENERGY STAR® and EnergyGuide labels—qualified central units are about 15% more efficient than standard models. As of January 1, 2015, updated residential central air conditioner standards went into effect; see the efficiency standards for central air conditioners for details, and consider purchasing a system with a higher SEER than the minimum for greater savings.

If you’ve started to experience any of the issues listed above, contact Clarke & Rush! We will quickly and efficiently install a new air conditioner in your Sacramento home.

Sacramento AC Installation Checklist

Whether you’re installing new central AC equipment or replacing existing heating and cooling equipment, a quality installation of high-efficiency equipment can lower your energy bills, increase comfort in your home, and extend the useful life of your equipment. Energy-efficient central AC equipment will be:
Installing the right size equipment for your home is important so you get the best performance. Oftentimes, a homeowner thinks bigger is better when they buy new equipment, but really, a system that’s too big will make your home less comfortable and reduce the equipment’s life with frequent “on/off” cycling. We will make sure you get the right sized system by measuring your home and calculating the right size.
Ducts circulate air from the central AC or heat pump throughout your home. Damaged ducts or ducts that are connected poorly will leak cold or hot air which wastes energy. We will take measurements of your home’s duct system leakage then repair or seal the ducts which improves your home’s energy efficiency.
The air flow in your heating and air systems need to have the right volume for operating efficiently. If air flow is too low or high, it could make your home less comfortable while increasing your energy bills. We will measure your home’s air flow and make any necessary adjustments so the system operates at peak efficiency.
It’s important for an air conditioner or heat pump to have the right amounts of refrigerant, this is sometimes referred to as the “refrigerant charge.” If your system is charged wrong it might use more energy resulting in higher humidity. We will test your home’s refrigerant charge and make any necessary adjustments. This makes your home more comfortable and helps you to avoid wasting money on your energy bills.
