As much as you want to, your air conditioning unit is not meant to last for much more than ten to fifteen years. Ideally, it should maintain optimum comfort in every part of your home while being energy-efficient. Also, your system should be able to reduce the humidity level that adds to the discomfort of summer heat, while lowering the temperature enough to let you and your family get a good night sleep or enjoy your daily activities when awake.
Even when you’re doing a good job at maintaining your AC system, you may reach a point where your unit isn’t functioning well enough to provide your family’s cooling needs, especially during the hottest part of summer.
If you are in search of a new air conditioner, look no further. Marsh Heating and Air Conditioning is your friendly HVAC company in Bloomington MN that offers an array of energy-efficient air conditioners made by the best in the industry.
When to Replace Your Air Conditioner
If your unit is close to ten years, you may want to consider replacing it rather than repairing it. Heating and cooling make up about 50 percent of your utility costs. If you notice a significant increase in your cooling costs, your air conditioning system may not be working efficiently.
Older air conditioners use R22, a refrigerant that will be made obsolete in the future to meet environmental protection requirements. That means that this refrigerant is expensive and is becoming difficult to source.
If you notice a consistent presence of dust in your home — even after cleaning, this could mean that there are leaks in the ductwork. These leaks will compromise the efficiency of your AC unit, increasing its operating costs. It is also possible that your air conditioner has a problem with its indoor coil.
If these things sound familiar to you, it may be time to consider getting a new air conditioner.
Features of the Lennox XC25 Air Conditioner
The XC25 is a variable-capacity air conditioner, the most precise and efficient air conditioner you can buy.
Its variable speed motor runs at a wide range of speeds to accurately control cooled air throughout the home. It can make adjustments in tiny increments depending on how much cooling is needed to get the job done. This results in better airflow control. The variable speed motor uses less electricity than standard motors, which leads to significantly lower electricity bills. The variable speed motor allows you to customize your comfort in different areas of your home. The XC25 has a 10-year limited warranty on covered components, including the compressor.
The XC25 has been designated as one of the most efficient ENERGY STAR® certified products of 2018. Products that are recognized as the Most Efficient of ENERGY STAR in 2018 prevent greenhouse gas emissions by meeting rigorous energy efficiency performance levels set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
It offers a SEER efficiency rating of up to 26, which means you save hundreds of dollars a year in utility bills. This variable-capacity air conditioner allows you to set the temperature and consistently keep it in that setting. To take advantage of solar energy, the XC25 can be combined with the SunSource® Home Energy System.
The XC25 is the finest air conditioner that Lennox designed and one of the main components of the Ultimate Comfort System™. This system adapts to your needs and area. Three settings, “Dry”, “Moderate” or “Humid” allow the air conditioner to adjust the airspeed to either increase or decrease dehumidification as needed.
The XC25 is compatible with the entire line of the Dave Lennox Signature® Collection equipment, providing you with the ultimate in comfort. This includes the iHarmony® zoning, which lets you redirect the airflow in your home. Rarely used areas of your home can be designated to receive less cooling than more utilized areas, saving you energy consumption and lowering your electric bills.
The XC25 has SilentComfort™ technology which means sound levels are low enough that you can barely tell it is operating. It is 50 percent quieter than a standard air conditioner.
