Figuring Out the Best AC for Your Home

July 3, 2022

You wouldn’t want to pay a large chunk of money for a system that never met your home’s needs. You work hard to earn those funds—you want to make sure they’re put to good use. That’s why it is good not to rush into getting an air conditioner installation in Milwaukee, WI. Getting the wrong system, or even having the right system installed incorrectly, can leave you without the comfort you need and out a lot of money.

We want to make sure you get your next air conditioner started right. We can do this by providing you with expert installation and helping you choose the best system for your home. 

3 Factors to Consider When Selecting a New Air Conditioner

If you are trying to get a new air conditioner installed in your home, you’ll want to get things going soon. Here are some factors to consider when selecting a new system. Once you know what you need, come to us to get the installation figured out.

1. The condition of your ductwork

Ductwork is a highly important factor to consider when choosing an air conditioner. If you have ductwork in good condition, you can choose any kind of ducted system you might want to cool your home. 

If your ductwork is in poor condition and you’re ready to stop using a ducted system altogether, it may be a good idea to consider a ductless mini split. These systems deliver home comfort without the need for ductwork, operating instead via multiple air handlers installed throughout the house. These systems are ideal for homes that can’t accommodate ductwork.

2. What size AC you may need

Sizing is something that you need to consider but not something you should try to tackle without a professional. When we are discussing sizing, we want you to consider the SEER and EER ratings for your next air conditioner. You want one that performs efficiently and effectively for your home throughout the summer on both the average hot day and through those sweltering heat waves. Look for good SEER and EER ratings that fit what you need to keep your home comfortable.

3. Whether or not you need a heater as well

We know that keeping your home warm is the last thing you’re thinking about right now. However, considering this idea now can save you a lot of time and trouble later on. 

If you need a heater along with an air conditioner for your house, you may want to know that there is one kind of system that can serve both purposes: a heat pump mini split. Coming in both ducted and ductless forms, this system can keep your home cool this summer and warm in winter.

Whenever you need a new air conditioner or other comfort systems in your house, let our experts help assess your home’s needs and install it correctly.

Whatever the kind of air conditioning system you are looking for, you can count on us to get it installed properly. Contact Capital Heating & Cooling to schedule your system installation.

I requested to have quote to install a EV charger in our garage. I was able to schedule one in a week and Adam showed up at the door right on time to inspect how much would that cost. He was very professional and explained very clearly how the technician will work on the installation. He also made the process easy by sending me two different options via email for me to choose which one I’d like to go with. After accepting one of the options someone called and scheduled the installation. Erich came out and installed everything professionally. Price was reasonable and we could not be happier with how easy the process went.

**EDITED REVIEW**Noone can really expect perfection out of a business, especially when that company is large and well known. I experienced a few issues throughout my process, but to be fair - my situation was highly unique and I had an extremely firm and inflexible expectation.Capital quickly jumped into action and corrected the situation. By quickly, I mean - within 45 minutes.Sure, perfection is the goal. But what really matters is how a company responds when things aren't perfect (because they won't always be). Capital stands by their service and products, and I'm appreciative of their actions to get us to the point of the project's end goal//my vision.Upgraded from 1 to 5 stars. Unmatched support. Thank you!!

Have always had a positive experience with Capital Heating & Cooling! They're prompt, great communication before, during and after and upfront on needs for our HVAC needs. We had Kyle out, who did a great job letting us know of any issues, solutions and did the repair.

The service was so thorough, and they were all very good communicators, they were very respectful, and they gave 110% to my needs. The work was done quickly and they made sure that EVERYTHING was functioning at its best. I will recommend Capital to everyone as I hear of needs.

This post is about the excellent customer service, namely from Tyler. I heard their commercials on the radio and wanted to give them a call. It's been great customer service since day 1. I've had all my questions answered to my satisfaction. I'm looking forward to seeing the work they do. I have great confidence so far just based on my customer service experience.

We have NEVER worked with a company that was as thorough as this one. Anthony, Jordan and team were all exceptional and took the time to explain and advise on what was appropriate for our situation. I cannot say enough positive things about this great company. Awesome job and good, honest people.

I scheduled an appointment to fix a dryer outlet that wasn't providing enough voltage to heat a brand new dryer. Jacob discovered that the machine hadn't been connected properly and that there were no electrical issues. Despite spending 30 minutes checking and double-checking for any issues, I was not charged. That doesn't happen very often anymore. I will definitely use Capital Heating in the future and recommend you to friends and neighbors. Thank you!

Hired Capital Heating & Cooling do an annual A/C check for me. Communication regarding appointment, actual service technician and his arrival time were accurate and convenient. Service tech Kyle was very professional and respectful of my house (used shoe covers each time in & out of the house). After service was performed, he walked me through the condition of my AC and gave me several recommendations, but I didn’t feel pressured to purchase any on the spot. Took 1 star off because the solicitation for feedback was a little overboard, as I received several messages by text and email.
