Summer is here!
Which means it's time to put your air-conditioner to work!
But what happens when it's no longer up for the task?
Whether it's a broken part or maybe old age, you realize that it just doesn't work like it used to.
Many homeowners rush around in a panic and buy the biggest unit they can find because...
"Bigger is better". Right?
Not exactly.
When it comes to finding the right air-conditioner for your home, we need to talk about something called 'tonnage'.
Tonnage refers to the amount of heat your cooling system can draw from a home in an hour.
Heat removal is measured in BTUs or British Thermal Units, which is the amount of heat needed to change a pound of water by one degree.
One ton of cooling power removes 12,000 BTUs per hour.
You might think that it's better to be safe than sorry and choose an air-conditioner with a higher tonnage than you need, but just as a small air-conditioner wouldn't be powerful enough, a big air-conditioner may be too powerful for your needs.
To learn more about tonnage, how it can affect your home's cooling process and the problems that may appear with an air-conditioner that's too big for your home, read our blog by clicking the link in the description or going to www.iernaair.com
