You need a new HVAC system in Falmouth Foreside. Maybe you are adding central heating and cooling to a home that currently relies on window units, baseboard heaters, or wall units in Falmouth Foreside, ME. Maybe the existing system failed and repair costs relative to its age make a new installation the right investment in Falmouth Foreside. Maybe the system is 15 years old, still running, but you want to replace it before it fails at the worst possible time and on equipment that is 40 percent less efficient than what is available today in Falmouth Foreside, ME. In each case, you are making an investment that will determine how your home heats and cools for the next 15 to 20 years in Falmouth Foreside. And the decisions that determine whether that investment performs as expected are the sizing decision and the installation quality in Falmouth Foreside, ME.
Here is what most homeowners do not realize about HVAC equipment in Falmouth Foreside. The efficiency rating on a new HVAC system is the efficiency it achieves under laboratory test conditions in Falmouth Foreside, ME. What you actually experience in your home is the efficiency the installation produces in Falmouth Foreside. A high-efficiency system installed with an incorrect refrigerant charge operates at a significantly lower efficiency than its rating in Falmouth Foreside, ME. A correctly charged system installed on ductwork with significant leakage delivers a fraction of its rated cooling capacity to the living spaces in Falmouth Foreside. And a correctly charged, correctly installed system that is the wrong size for your home's actual load produces persistent humidity problems or inadequate comfort regardless of its efficiency rating in Falmouth Foreside, ME. The equipment rating is the ceiling. The installation quality determines whether you get anywhere near it in Falmouth Foreside.

The variables that determine real-world HVAC performance are all controlled during installation in Falmouth Foreside. Correct refrigerant charge, which affects both efficiency and cooling or heating capacity in Falmouth Foreside, ME. Correct airflow through the indoor coil, which affects heat transfer efficiency in Falmouth Foreside. Correct duct system compatibility, which determines how much of the system's conditioned air actually reaches the living spaces in Falmouth Foreside, ME. And correct system sizing, which determines whether the system produces the right amount of conditioning for the home's actual load in Falmouth Foreside. Every one of these variables is set during installation. Getting them right at installation is significantly easier than correcting them after the fact in Falmouth Foreside, ME.

An oversized HVAC system reaches the thermostat setpoint quickly without adequately conditioning the rest of the home or removing adequate humidity from the circulated air in Falmouth Foreside, ME. In cooling mode, the short cycles an oversized system produces do not run long enough to dehumidify effectively in Falmouth Foreside. Indoor humidity remains elevated despite the air conditioner running in Falmouth Foreside, ME. The home feels cold and clammy rather than cool and comfortable in Falmouth Foreside. And the frequent startup and shutdown cycles accumulate wear on the compressor that shortens the system's service life in Falmouth Foreside, ME.
An undersized HVAC system runs continuously in extreme weather without reaching the thermostat setpoint in Falmouth Foreside. The home is consistently warmer in summer and cooler in winter than the thermostat calls for during the most demanding weather in Falmouth Foreside, ME. The system runs at maximum capacity for extended periods, consuming maximum energy while delivering inadequate comfort in Falmouth Foreside.
MBM performs a Manual J load calculation for every HVAC installation in Falmouth Foreside. The calculation accounts for floor area, ceiling height, insulation R-values in all building assemblies, window area, orientation and SHGC, local design temperatures, and internal heat gains in Falmouth Foreside, ME. The output is the correct system capacity for the specific home in Falmouth Foreside. Not an estimate based on square footage alone in Falmouth Foreside, ME.
Manual J determines the correct system capacity. Manual D designs the duct system. Manual J determines the correct system capacity in Falmouth Foreside, ME. Manual D designs the duct system to correctly distribute the conditioned air that capacity produces to each room in Falmouth Foreside. A correctly sized system installed on an incorrectly designed duct system cannot deliver the right amount of conditioned air to each room regardless of its overall capacity in Falmouth Foreside, ME. Both calculations are required for a complete installation that performs correctly at the room level in Falmouth Foreside. MBM performs both as standard components of every complete HVAC installation in Falmouth Foreside, ME.
