Choosing the Right Heating and Air Conditioning System for Litchfield Park

September 30, 2015

Given the environment in Litchfield Park, there are a host of factors involved in the way you approach your heating and air conditioning. And when it’s time to think about purchasing a heating and air conditioning system, it’s easy to make a hasty decision and risk ending up with a system that doesn’t totally  address all of the needs that come with the climate.

Here’s a quick and simple breakdown of how to figure out what will work best for the current climate in Litchfield Park or a new climate if you plan on relocating.

Warmer climates

The southern section of North America typically has warmer weather for the majority of the year, so not all heating and air conditioning equipment is made for that climate. These warmer climates normally utilize heat pumps and air handlers.

  • Heat pumps handle both your cooling and heating needs in one unit. Even if you don’t think you need the heating functionality of a heat pump, it can help you get the best energy efficiency out of your system. Plus, you never know when there will be a surprise cold front that cools things off a tad.
  • Air handlers ensure the air inside your home is being circulated. Whether it’s the warm air in cooler months or cool air in the hotter months, air handlers make sure your comfort is always a high priority.

Colder climates

If we talk about the climates in the northern portion of North America, it’s safer to go with an air conditioner and furnace to handle your heating and air conditioning needs. With temperatures getting cold more frequently, gas and oil furnaces can run regardless of the temperature outside, leaving you comfortable inside.

Making sure your home is comfortable all year means taking a little time to understand the heating and air conditioning needs of your region. Not sure what is best for you?
