Converting To A Central Air Conditioning Unit

If you have a window air conditioning unit and you're sick and tired of it not cooling your home

, or the loud noise it makes, or the way it looks sticking out the side of your home, you should switch to a central air conditioning unit. Most homes and apartments these days have central air conditioning units. They just cool much better than the window units. They're expensive, sure, but it's a great investment.

Before you switch to a central air conditioning unit, you're going to have to decide what size you need, you're going to have to determine how much equipment you'll need and you're going to want to get estimates for all of this before you decide to commit. If you do decide to switch to a central air conditioning unit, you'll be happy you did because you'll see they cool much more effectively than window units.

Size

Central air conditioning units come in different sizes. For a small to medium sized apartment, it's not uncommon to use a one or even two ton central air conditioning unit. For a large sized house, you can have two or more units or even one big unit to handle all that volume. If you get a central air conditioning unit that's too small, it won't cool your apartment effectively.

On the other hand, if you get a central air conditioning unit that's too big, your electric bill could turn out to be sky high. So make sure you get the right size for your apartment. For this, an expert should be called unless of course you know what you're doing.

Supplies

You'll need the proper hoses, tubing, coils and all the rest of the proper equipment if you're going to do the job yourself. If you don't really know what you're doing, you can always call an expert out. An expert will let you know what size unit you need, the type and amount of equipment you'll need as well as how much everything is going to cost.

Getting an Estimate

If you're not going to be doing the job yourself, you'll want to call someone to come out to inspect your home. There are many companies out there so you should call around to see who will give you the best price. Don't let them do any work until you get an estimate and you know that you can afford it.

Don't be afraid to get estimates from several different companies. When you find the right price, and you're satisfied with how the company conducts themselves, you can then switch from a window to a central air conditioning unit so you can finally be cool during those hot summer months.
