STEPS TO PREPARE YOUR HOME FOR A NEW HVAC SYSTEM INSTALLATION
While you’re not expected to participate in the new HVAC system installation itself, there are a few things you as a homeowner can do. Taking these first steps will accelerate the installation procedure and guarantee that you’re taking full advantage of your project. Confirm with the contractor in regards to its size in tons and SEER. If there’s any doubt, verify that you and the contractor conducted a load calculation before sizing the new HVAC system.
On the off chance that there’s any uncertainty about what size will work best, it’s better to undersize rather than oversize an HVAC system for better humidity control.
Have The Ductwork Inspected For Leaks Regardless of whether it is new ductwork or you’re ready to utilize the current ducts, make sure it’s sealed tightly and its capacity is adequate for the new system. Ductwork leaks increase heating and cooling bills and decrease the air quality indoors. Air conditioning experts have tools that measures air leaks, and it ought to be as near to zero leaks as could reasonably be expected. Older ductwork may require cleaning to enhance their effectiveness and improve indoor air quality.
Set Up The Yard Assuming there is any chance of this happening, the outside condenser ought to be set on the north side of your home during new HVAC system installation, or in a protected, shady place. The area ought to be entirely level, and all sides of the condenser should ideally have two feet of clearance.
Move The Furniture The inside part of the new HVAC system isn’t as heavy and awkward as the outdoor equipment, however it will help the installation team tremendously if all the furniture has been moved to clear the path to work area (closet, access door, hallway or stairway).
