You need to choose the right size of equipment for your home as well. While knowing what you need might seem challenging, we\u2019ve got some tips for calculating the best size HVAC for your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why Size Matters<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bigger isn\u2019t always better, and that\u2019s certainly true when it comes to your heating and cooling systems. If you buy one that\u2019s too big, it will cycle on and off frequently, wasting energy and bumping up your utility bills. If you get one that\u2019s too small, it will have to work extra hard to keep up with demand without making your home as comfortable as you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How to Calculate Optimal HVAC Size<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two ways to estimate the right size HVAC for your house. One is the Manual J Calculation. This method measures square footage and looks at it in combination with considerations such as the types of windows, where your home sits in relation to daily sunlight, how many people live in the house, what type of ductwork there is, and the climate where you live. The second method simply looks at the overall square footage of the living space in your home. Both estimates can help you determine the best size HVAC for your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may know the square footage of your home, but you might not fully understand HVAC systems, BTUs, energy efficiency ratings, and what brands and sizes fit your needs. That\u2019s where a good HVAC company comes in. Contact the heating and cooling experts at your local <a href=\"\/contact\">McCall\u2019s<\/a> dealer for all the HVAC information to pick the best brand, size, and type for your home.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Choosing the right heating and air conditioning system is about more than the brand name.
