Excessively hot weather can pose dangers to your health. More than any other time of the year, summer is when you’d expect your air conditioner to be in tip-top shape. But what if your old AC is no longer able to address your family’s cooling needs?
When your cooling system starts to deteriorate, you will be faced with the inevitable: choosing between repair and replacement. Though investing in a new air conditioning system involves an upfront cost, but it does offer greater comfort and peace of mind for you and your family. After all, your family’s comfort and safety should come first, right?
Marsh Heating and Air Conditioning is your leading HVAC company in Fridley MN that offers an array of feature-packed air conditioners engineered by Lennox Industries.
The Dangers of Hot Weather
One of the first signs your body is beginning to have issues due to high temperatures include muscle cramps and extreme sweating, which cause you to lose water. If you’re unable to rehydrate as soon as possible, it will result in an imbalance in salt, causing you to suffer from cramps.
Another health risk associated with too hot weather is heat edema. This happens when your body dilates your blood vessels in order to avoid overheating, and blood can collect in the legs, especially if there is an imbalance of salt in your body. This can result in swelling in the legs, feet, or hands.
A more grievous risk of being exposed to very high temperatures is heat exhaustion, which occurs when your body is sapped of either water or salt. Symptoms may include dizziness, confusion, too much sweating, dark-colored urine, headache, pale skin, nausea, vomiting, rapid and weak pulse, muscle cramps, and fatigue.
Perhaps the most critical form of heat-related medical problem is heat stroke, which can damage the brain, heart, kidneys, and other muscles. Failure to administer necessary medical attention can lead to the loss of human life.
For this reason, you need to ensure you have a properly working air conditioner, especially when summer is at its hottest. If you’re looking to upgrade to a new AC, consider the Lennox XC13.
Features of the Lennox Elite® Series XC13 Air Conditioner
This air conditioner comes with a 10-Year Limited Warranty on the compressor and 5-Year Limited Warranty on covered components. The XC13 may be eligible for valuable 10-Year Limited Extended Warranty coverage with product registration.
With a Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) rating of up to 15.50, the Lennox XC13 air conditioner can save you hundreds of dollars in cooling costs per year, compared to older air conditioners.
Every component of the XC13 has proven itself through extensive testing in our research labs. So you can take comfort knowing that your conditioner will deliver reliable performance throughout the cooling season.
The compressor is the part of the air conditioner that pumps refrigerant to deliver the cooling your home needs. The XC13’s scroll compressor is engineered to perform reliably and efficiently in the harshest conditions.
To reduce operating sound levels, the XC13 uses a precision-balanced, direct-drive fan. This lets it operate at a volume as quiet as 74 dB.
Because it’s compatible with the Humiditrol® whole-home dehumidification system, the XC13 can help your indoor air feel cool and comfortable, while maintaining proper humidity levels.
Its high-efficiency outdoor coil provides exceptional heat transfer and low air resistance for high-efficiency operation.
Its PermaGuard™ Cabinet is a heavy-gauge, galvanized steel construction, louver coil guard, baked-on powder finish and durable zinc-coated steel base provide long-lasting protection against rust and corrosion.
Its SmartHinge™ louver design allows quick, easy access to interior components from all sides for cleaning and maintenance. Protects coils from damage and provides a clean appearance.
It has drainage holes that prevent damaging moisture from collecting inside the base pan.
Its Chlorine-free R-410A refrigerant provides exceptional comfort without exacting a costly environmental toll.
