Whether you have just moved into a new home or you have lived in the same house for years with no air conditioning, you have had enough of the heat and stuffiness during the warmer months. You decide to purchase an air conditioning system but notice that there are many different types available.
Window air conditioners are effective but will not cool down the whole home. Portable air conditioners can cool down the immediate area of where it is located but may not offer the power that you need.
If you want an air conditioning system that is powerful enough to cool your whole house, then a central air unit is what you need. These units are fueled by a large compressor kept outdoors and uses the same duct work as your furnace. Below are reasons why you should definitely consider a central air conditioning system for your home.
1. Cools whole house
On an extremely hot day, you want to go anywhere in your house and feel the cooling effects of your air conditioner. As mentioned, you will not experience this with the use of a window or portable air conditioner that will only cool the immediate vicinity.
Central air conditioning units are the preferred option for most homeowners because they cool the whole house. The compressors that the units use are powerful and the system is hooked up to the ducts in your home. This ensures that every single room is receiving the cool air produced. In the event that you have rooms that are cool enough, such as in the basement, it is easy enough to close vents so that the air can be re-routed to areas that need it more.
2. Less noise
Your house is your sanctuary, the place where you can relax in with family. While noise is a common occurrence in a house, especially with multiple people or small children, sometimes you want peace and quiet. This is not possible when the air conditioner you have is noisy.
Central air conditioners product less noise than other options available. This is because the parts of the unit that are larger and create the most noise, the compressor and condenser, are located outside. All you and your family will hear is a click and slight gust of air when the air conditioner kicks on. Otherwise, you will not even notice that it is on.
3. Easy to operate
When it is hot outside, you want your air conditioning unit to start automatically as scheduled by your thermostat. You also want to be able to control and adjust it manually as well if needed.
Central air conditioning units are easy to operate, guaranteeing that you are able to cool down your house as needed. Adjusting your thermostat to kick on when the temperature inside reaches a certain level is easy and you can even set your unit to activate before you return home. This allows you to walk in to a nice, cold house to relax in.
4. Healthier
You want your house to be as cool as possible during the warmer months but you do not want to sacrifice your health or that of your family, pets, or visitors. For this reason, a central air conditioner should be considered.
Central air conditioning units provide a healthier environment because they filter the air coming into your home as opposed to wall and portable units that do not. This ensure that everyone in your home is exposed to only the cleanest of air being circulated. As a result, mold will also not be an issue as central air conditioning units circulate fresh air evenly. This prevents damp conditions that mold is able to grow in and will allow everyone within the home to avoid serious illness.
