Professional Insulation Contractors in Melbourne, FL

Maintenance consists of cleaning the drain line and drain pan. Includes inspection of the indoor air handler for cleanliness. We wipe down and sanitize anything accessible and use a no rinse coil cleaning spray to help maintain the coil. We check the filter for if it needs changed and do a visual inspection of the ductwork. We also check static pressure at the ductwork to ensure the ductwork is not undersized. We also check to see if the system is properly charged and cooling efficiently as well as check all electrical connections and components that may cause a breakdown in the near future. We make recommendations according to our findings if needed.

They are measured in BTUs and tonnage. 1 ton=12,000 btus. The tonnage needed is calculated using load calculation software that takes into account any efficiency upgrades to the home, such as windows, insulation, metal or tile roofs, foam insulation and what direction the windows are facing. Tonnage is not based solely on the size of the home and will be different depending on how efficient or efficient the home is.

A manual J is the only way to know 100% what size system is needed, and should be performed when efficiency upgrades are made or if you are changing the current size of equipment.

More capacity is not always better, in fact it will cause humidity and mold and mildew issues if it is too high of a capacity. A manual J heat load calculation is the only way to be sure your system is the correct size. If the system does not run long enough it will not be pulling enough moisture out of the air.

There should be around 16-18 degrees difference between the inside air temp closest to the return and the supply temp above the air handler. System should be charged using either subcool or superheat depending on the system and will very between that temperature difference range.
