So, your tired of having trouble sleeping, with the warm humid nights of last summer and have decided to purchase A/C for this year. Let's look at the different factors involved: 1. Where is the unit being located? hi most eases it goes on the side of the house.Try not to locate it right under the master bedroom window, to minimize any noise disturbance. Units going on the side of houses are fine rated in 7-1-78 db range as the noise factor is not usually a big issue. If, however the unit is going at the back of the house near your patio door then it certainly does make sense to pick a quieter unit. Here, a unit in the 68-72 db range is desired as each drop in til) rating is a large drop in noise level. 2. SEER Rating. Units for Canadian market have a S.E.fi.R. number assigned to them, litis stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Rating. The higher the number the less electrical energy used to produce the same amount of cooling. SEER of 10 is very common in our market and is fine for a variety of lifestyles. However, upgrading to a 12 SEER unit will produce a 16% energy saving over a 10 SEER and going to a li SEER unit would be approx. 32% more efficient over a 10 SEER. 3. Warranty anil Make of Unit liny a name brand unit with a very good dealer network like Lennox, with an excellent reputation. Warranties to look for are 5 years minimum on the unit and up to 10 years on the compressor. Higher end units also come with a good labour or service warranty, but the company lias to have a good track record otherwise the warranty for service isn't worth the paper it is written on! 'i. Huy the unit even if you need to finance it!: Now, with delayed payment programs available up to 12 months/no interest/no payment available, makes it easy to purchase the unit now and budget for paying it over the months to come!
