Most Common AC Installation Mistakes You Need to Avoid
SHARE

If you have recently purchased a new air conditioner for your home or business and are currently waiting for it to be installed, you are the only person who will be able to avoid making these mistakes if you are aware of them.

It is essential to keep in mind that several things could go wrong with the installation of the air conditioner, each one of which could impede the functioning of the system. The following is a list of the most typical mistakes when installing an AC that one should be aware of.

Incorrect AC Size

Choosing the wrong-sized AC is a common mistake. This can cause energy efficiency problems and short cycles. Before buying an air conditioner, make sure it’s big enough for your home but not too enormous.

Use a BTU calculator to achieve this. Enter the room dimensions to see how many BTUs you’ll need. Find an air conditioner with that many BTUs. Call a local AC provider for help. They’ll measure your home and recommend a unit.

Misplaced thermostat

Unbeknownst to many, thermostats must be strategically placed. Incorrect placement might lead to temperature fluctuations and air conditioner failure. First and foremost, keep your thermostat out of direct sunlight. Sunlight might cause temperature errors in your home’s AC.

Keep your thermostat away from doorways and windows. Wind drafts might fool your AC into believing it’s cooler or warmer. This causes temperature errors. Thermostats should be placed in halls or corridors because they’re secluded.

Improper AC placement

AC units can be misplaced, like the thermostat. If the AC is located poorly, energy efficiency and functioning will suffer. Where should it go? It should be in a shaded region with little direct sunshine. Because of this, many AC condensers are placed under awnings.

You also need space surrounding the unit. So leave 5 feet between the unit and any hedges, trees, or yard ornaments. If you don’t allow enough space, the unit has to work harder, using more energy and costing you money.

An air conditioner runs on a liquid gas called a refrigerant. The refrigerant line connects the condenser to the AC’s interior unit. Due to its location, this line must be insulated. DIYers often don’t protect refrigerant lines adequately. This wastes electricity and strains the AC.

Misplaced vents

Installing a central AC system may involve ductwork. Installing ducts means installing vents. The placement of these vents can be crucial, though. The placement of vents might affect how you arrange furniture in your home.

If you put a vent on the ground, you can’t put a chair there. You can’t cover vents. As a result, you must plan your installation carefully. Vents should be mounted on your walls’ tops. So, they can’t trespass on your belongings.

Refrigerant Leaks Unchecked

As stated previously, refrigerant is the AC’s lifeblood. So, if the refrigerant leaked from the AC, the AC would not work correctly. AC installations are messy. This often causes leaks and punctures. So, once your system is set up, you must check for leaks.

If you can’t do it yourself, get a professional HVAC provider. Leaks can reduce system efficiency. This might be costly.

Inexperience

AC installation isn’t easy. It’s complex. If you ruin the installation, you could face significant problems later. Unless you have AC installation experience, skip the task. Use experts. You’ll get a quality installation and a warranty.
