Properly sizing your homes central air conditioner is crucial to your overall comfort. A/C sizing is commonly measured in tons. A ton of refrigeration is approximately equal to the cooling power of one short ton (2000 pounds) of ice melting in a 24-hour period. An A/C ton can also be converted into BTU’s (British Thermal Units). 1 Ton of cooling is equal to 12,000 BTU’s per hour. Residential air conditioners are typically sized between 1.5 and 5 tons.

The United States Department of Energy has changed the air conditioner and heat pump rating system from SEER, EER and HSPF to SEER2, EER2 and HSPF2. These new ratings better reflect the real-world conditions in which these air conditioners and heat pumps are being installed. Upgrading to an air conditioner or heat pump with the new ratings will help you maximize efficiency and comfort in your home.
Air conditioning is a process that involves the removal of heat and moisture from the air in a room or building. It works by using a refrigerant, a chemical that can change from a gas to a liquid and back again very easily. The air conditioning process involves several components, including:
- Compressor: The compressor is responsible for compressing the refrigerant gas to a high pressure and temperature.
- Condenser: The hot, high-pressure refrigerant gas then moves to the condenser where it releases heat to the outside environment, causing the refrigerant to condense into a liquid.
- Expansion valve: The expansion valve is a small device that reduces the pressure of the refrigerant liquid, causing it to evaporate into a gas again. This process absorbs heat from the surrounding air, cooling it down.
- Evaporator: The evaporator is where the cold refrigerant gas absorbs heat from the indoor air, cooling it down and causing the moisture in the air to condense into water.
- Fan: A fan blows the cooled air back into the room, while another fan blows the warm air outside.
The process of refrigerant gas being compressed, condensed, expanded, and evaporated continues in a cycle, constantly removing heat and moisture from the indoor air until the desired temperature and humidity level is reached. This cycle is controlled by a thermostat, which turns the air conditioning system on and off as needed to maintain the desired temperature.
Your air conditioner is a vital component of your home, keeping you cool and comfortable during the hot summer months. However, like any piece of equipment, your air conditioner requires regular maintenance in order to keep it running at peak efficiency. But how often should you maintain your air conditioner? The experts at A.J. LeBlanc Heating have the answer.
Mini split air conditioning systems are becoming increasingly popular among homeowners, thanks to their energy efficiency, ease of installation, and cost savings. However, some homeowners may be tempted to install a mini split themselves, in order to save money on installation costs. At A.J. LeBlanc Heating, we strongly advise against this approach, and believe that it is important to rely on a professional HVAC contractor for your mini split installation needs. Here's why:
