How a New HVAC Fan Coil Can Reduce Your Energy Use

by | Sep 15, 2016 | Blog

For homeowners in Eden, Georgia, an efficient HVAC system makes a big difference for your family’s comfort and your household’s energy consumption. Learn how a new HVAC fan coil can reduce energy use while still keeping your home cool all year long.

Increase Your System’s SEER Rating

The fan coil is an important part of your cooling system’s indoor unit, and it plays a major role in determining your air conditioner or heat pump’s seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) rating. A higher number indicates greater efficiency, and cooling systems generally need SEER ratings of at least 15 before they’re eligible for Energy Star certification.

Older cooling systems often have lower SEER ratings, but you can give yours a boost with a new fan coil. At Byrd Heating and Air Conditioning, we offer a range of Carrier fan coils that enable your air conditioner or heat pump to increase its SEER rating by up to two points.

Make the Most of Variable Speeds

Efficient cooling technology has advanced significantly over the past few years, and variable speed fans are changing the way homeowners use cooling systems. When you upgrade to our Infinity Fan Coil FE4, you’ll benefit from a variable speed blower motor that enables your system to operate at a low level for most of the time. This fan coil can dial up its cooling power when necessary without losing efficiency or compromising your comfort.

Decrease Humidity for More Efficient Cooling

Cooling systems are designed to manage both temperature and humidity for maximum comfort. If your aging system can’t handle humidity, though, it will struggle to operate efficiently. When you install our Comfort Fan Coil FX4, you’ll gain improved humidity control that helps you save energy by keeping indoor moisture at a comfortable level.
