The first step in getting yourself a system is to determine the size of the system your home needs.

If you would prefer to have the calculation completed by a Certified HRAI Technician call us at 506.444.1889.

We need to consider many things to decide what is best for your comfort. What is the size and type of your home, walls, and windows? Does your house have sufficient insulation? If yes, what type and density does it have? What is the condition of your basement and attic? Is your home oriented towards or away from the sun? These are some of the factors considered before starting each job. A computerized system is used by MAC Mechanical Systems to calculate the heating and cooling needs of your rooms. This helps them make precise recommendations. We are Certified by HRAI to complete this calculation for you.

It is likely that you may think of this as being counter-intuitive. There is a general notion that an any Contractor would get you to buy the most expensive HVAC system available. While a big system will work fast, they will do a poor job of removing enough moisture from the air. Consequently, the air will leave you feeling sticky and humid, not cool and fresh. This humidity can lead to growth of mold and harmful bacteria inside your home!

If a system is too big, it will turn itself on and off more rapidly. This is also called "short-cycling" and it can affect the system adversely causing it to break down quicker, not to mention burning a hole in your pocket as far as heating and cooling bills are concerned. A system that's too small will run constantly, trying to cool or heat a space that is larger than its capacity. Proper size is very very important and this is the first step that we take when working with you to meet your comfort expectations.
