Choosing the right Air Conditioning System in Richmond Hill
When considering a new AC system for your home it is important to remember that not all air conditioners are created equal. No matter how big or small your space, there’s an air conditioning system that’s just right for you. Choosing the right AC will make it run more efficiently, keep you cool for longer and keep your budget in check.
Before you choose an AC unit, here are some important things to consider:
House Size and Location:
What direction is the house facing? The size of the space and the amount of sun you receive during the day are key when determining the unit size and power.
Insulation:
The insulation make-up of your home’s walls, ceilings, and windows will influence the size and power of the AC unit that you will need.
Energy Efficiency:
The best way to measure the energy efficiency of your Richmond Hill AC system is to check its seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER). The higher the SEER rating, the more energy you could save and the lower your operating costs could be.
There are many things to consider before buying (or renting) the right air conditioning system for your Richmond Hill home, and we are here to help you choose the best option.
Looking for a Heat Pump in Richmond Hill?
An electric heat pump is an air conditioner with the bonus that it can run in reverse and bring heat into your home on those cold spring and winter days, saving you from having to turn your furnace on until it’s frigid outside. It’s also an excellent choice for the environment and could help you reduce your carbon footprint! Be sure to check your local area for Government Rebates.

HomeStarsFrequently Asked Questions
SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio and is a way to measure the energy efficiency of an air conditioning unit. Most air conditioners have SEER ratings between 13 – 21. A higher number indicates a more energy efficient system, which may help lower the cost of your utility bills.
Yes! Here are 5 tips to help you stay cool without sweating over your budget:
- Choose an air conditioner with a high SEER.
- Pair your air conditioning system with a programmable thermostat so you have complete control over your heating and cooling.
- Keep windows and doors shut when the AC is working.
- Change your furnace filter – even in the summer – to reduce stress on your air conditioning system.
- Ask about government rebates that may help reduce the cost of buying or renting a high-efficiency AC system.
No, but a little preventative maintenance can go a long way. We recommend an annual AC inspection and tune-up to help your AC provide reliable comfort all summer long. Our local technicians are trained experts and experienced with all the models we offer.
