You need a new HVAC system in Jewett City. Maybe you are adding central heating and cooling to a home that currently relies on window units, baseboard heaters, or wall units in Jewett City, CT. Maybe the existing system failed and repair costs relative to its age make a new installation the right investment in Jewett City. 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 Jewett City, CT. 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 Jewett City. And the decisions that determine whether that investment performs as expected are the sizing decision and the installation quality in Jewett City, CT.
Here is what most homeowners do not realize about HVAC equipment in Jewett City. The efficiency rating on a new HVAC system is the efficiency it achieves under laboratory test conditions in Jewett City, CT. What you actually experience in your home is the efficiency the installation produces in Jewett City. A high-efficiency system installed with an incorrect refrigerant charge operates at a significantly lower efficiency than its rating in Jewett City, CT. A correctly charged system installed on ductwork with significant leakage delivers a fraction of its rated cooling capacity to the living spaces in Jewett City. 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 Jewett City, CT. The equipment rating is the ceiling. The installation quality determines whether you get anywhere near it in Jewett City.

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

MBM performs a Manual J load calculation for every HVAC installation in Jewett City. 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 Jewett City, CT. The output is the correct system capacity for the specific home in Jewett City. Not an estimate based on square footage alone in Jewett City, CT.
Manual J determines the correct system capacity. Manual D designs the duct system. Manual J determines the correct system capacity in Jewett City, CT. Manual D designs the duct system to correctly distribute the conditioned air that capacity produces to each room in Jewett City.
