Is it time for a new air conditioner?

When summer temperatures and humidity arrive in Indiana, you need an air conditioner that’s ready to perform to your expectations. If your current central air system isn’t up to the task, it’s time to upgrade. Specialized Mechanical installs advanced, affordable, energy-efficient, and high-performance air conditioners and cooling systems for both homes and businesses.

Our comfort designers will tailor your needs to the perfect-sized system for your home or business. We are committed to giving our customers the air conditioning solution that is right for them at fair prices.

So What Does the SEER Rating of an AC system Mean?

SEER stands for "Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio," and it is a measure of the cooling output of an air conditioning system over a typical cooling season, divided by the amount of energy consumed in watt-hours.

Variable-Capacity AC Compressor

The Variable-capacity compressor also called Variable Speed is currently our most efficient and quietest option. It can operate at various speeds depending on the cooling requirements, ranging from 35-100%. Compared to two-stage systems, it offers a wider range of speeds, enabling the air conditioning to maintain lower speeds for longer durations while providing the option for higher speeds when the outdoor temperature rises. As a result, variable-speed AC systems run continuously without frequent on/off cycles and only at the required speed to keep you comfortable, making them the most energy-efficient among the three types of AC systems.

Two-Stage / Multi Stage AC Compressor

The two-stage AC compressor operates at two levels: high for extremely hot summer days and low for milder summer days. With a two-stage AC unit, you essentially get two units for the price of one. On days with moderate temperatures, the compressor initially runs at 70%, and if it fails to cool the house to the desired level, it moves to 100%. Since the low setting is adequate for cooling homes 80% of the time, a two-stage unit operates for more extended periods, resulting in a more uniform indoor air temperature. Compared to a single-stage compressor, the two-stage compressor is more efficient because it doesn't cycle on and off as frequently, reducing wear and tear. Moreover, the two-stage system removes twice as much humidity as the single-stage system because it operates at the lower level for an extended period.

Single-Stage AC Compressor

A single-stage AC compressor functions at a constant full-cold speed, with the thermostat controlling the home's temperature by turning the AC system and compressor on and off. In Indiana, most homes with central air conditioning use a single-stage compressor, which has been the standard for several decades. The latest single-stage models feature cutting-edge technology, making them considerably more energy-efficient than their older counterparts, which had much lower SEER ratings.

Customized Heating Solutions

Specialized Mechanical offers customized home comfort solutions that take into account factors such as home size, design, climate, insulation, and occupants' behavior to find the most affordable and energy-efficient option.
