An Amana heat pump offers benefits such as:-
- Indoor comfort during warm weather - Central air conditioning helps
keep your home cool and reduces humidity levels.
- Cleaner air throughout your home - As your central air conditioning
system draws air out of various rooms in the house, through return air ducts, the air is driven through an air
filter, which eliminates airborne particles such as dust and lint. Sophisticated filters may remove microscopic
pollutants, as well. The filtered air is then routed through to the air supply ductwork that carries it back to
all the rooms.
- Quieter operation - As the compressor bearing unit is located outside
the home, the indoor noise level from its operation is much lower than that of a free-standing air conditioning
unit.
There is a wide range of heating and air conditioning systems to choose from
nowadays. A good Amana heat pump supplier can draw on a vast degree of heating and air conditioning knowledge
and experience to help you decide on the system that best fits your specific needs. The size and age of your home,
as well as the number of rooms, climate, local and regional utility costs, and utility incentive/rebate programs
are some of the important factors that will affect the functionality and the final selection of your system. Amana
dealers utilizing the latest technology, consider all these factors whilst assisting you in choosing the best
system for your home.
Consumers seeking to replace an existing system often choose a new unit with equal or
higher efficiency ratings compared to their previous system. Replacing a unit that is 10- to 15-years-old may
reduce natural gas or electricity costs by 30 to 50%.
Installing a new system in a house that has not previously had a central air and heating
system will require the installation of ductwork, insulation, electrical service, refrigerant piping, wiring,
thermostat, condensate piping, flue piping, flue terminations, chimney liner, slabs, filter, driers, registers,
grills, drain pans and evaporator coil. Beyond equipment, the most important component installed with a new system,
however, is the ductwork. This ductwork is composed of two parts, supply and return. Supply duct is attached
to the outflow of the new system, delivering air to each area of the home. The amount of air reaching each area is
determined by the size of supply ductwork connecting it to your system. A good supplier/installer will help you
determine the size of all the supply ductwork in your home.
The second part of the ductwork, the return duct, attaches to the inlet of the new system
and draws air out of the spaces to be heated or cooled. A filter is connected to the return duct which should be
placed as near to the furnace or air handler as possible. Ductwork can be either fibreglass or metal and must be
sized properly in order to evenly distribute the right quantity of air to each room.
As you can see it is very important to choose your Amana Heat Pump supplier wisely as with
the right and correct installation your heating and cooling solution could last you around 15 years.
