Frequently Asked Questions
Which system type is most energy efficient?
Zoned systems offer the highest energy efficiency as they only condition occupied areas. However, split systems are most efficient for single rooms, while ducted systems excel in whole-home applications when properly sized and installed.
What's the best system for a new home?
For new homes, ducted or zoned systems are ideal as they can be integrated during construction without structural modifications. This provides whole-home comfort with discreet installation and maximum efficiency.
Can I upgrade my existing system?
Yes! Many systems can be upgraded or expanded. Split systems can be converted to multi-systems, and ducted systems can have zoning added. We'll assess your current setup and recommend the best upgrade path for your needs and budget.
How do I choose the right capacity?
System capacity depends on room size, insulation, ceiling height, window area, and local climate. Our technicians perform detailed load calculations to ensure your system is perfectly sized for optimal efficiency and comfort.
