I need to replace my AC unit. I built the home 15 years ago and I still have the same unit. The unit stopped working in September. I have a 2-story, 2100 sq ft. home and of course I want a good unit for an affordable price.

If your current home air conditioner is several years old, then you are likely stuck with an inefficient model that inflates power bills. Spending money on air conditioner maintenance and repair of your current unit can be a waste. Consider replacing your residential AC with a newer more energy efficient model that comes with an efficiency rating displayed. A one time investment can lead to monthly savings on your utility bills. Plus, newer models are guaranteed to be more reliable and better at controlling humidity.
If you are considering purchasing a new residential AC, make sure that you buy one that's the right size for your home. An air conditioner that's too small will not be able to cool quickly, and you may need to have the system switched on throughout the day, even on those days when the cooling requirement is not that high. This drags down your energy efficiency. On the other hand, a home air conditioning unit that's too small is likely to run in short intermittent cycles, switching itself on and off whenever the desired room temperature is reached. A small AC can also increase humidity levels inside the home, and create damp conditions that foster the growth of mold. Where you place your AC can also make a difference to the energy efficiency of your house air conditioning unit. For instance, placing a unit on a window ledge with foliage and plants clustered around the back of the unit can drag down energy efficiency. You'll also need to make a call on whether a central air conditioning unit or split system is a right fit for your home.
A professional residential air conditioning contractor will consider all factors before recommending a home air conditioning unit for your needs. For instance, an 18 rating SEER model may not be necessary, if you live in an area where you don't have high cooling needs. We can help you find residential air conditioning contractors in Kansas City, who can help you understand these specifications, and make the right choice that's optimized for highest operating efficiency.
