Debunking the Myth: Bigger HVAC Units Always Mean Better Cooling

The Truth About HVAC Unit Sizing

Since 1949, Perry Heating, Cooling, and Plumbing has been the leading HVAC and plumbing company for Tucson, AZ and surrounding communities. With decades of experience, we’ve encountered numerous myths about heating and cooling systems. Today, we’re here to debunk a common misconception: bigger HVAC units always mean better cooling.

The Myth

Many homeowners believe that installing the largest possible air conditioning unit will result in a cooler home and more efficient cooling. This myth often leads to unnecessary expenses and reduced comfort.

The Reality

The truth is, bigger isn’t always better when it comes to HVAC systems. Here’s why:

  • Oversized units cycle on and off more frequently, leading to increased wear and tear
  • Large units may cool too quickly, resulting in inadequate dehumidification
  • Improper sizing can lead to higher energy bills and reduced efficiency
  • An oversized system may not maintain consistent temperatures throughout your home

The Importance of Proper Sizing

At Perry Heating, Cooling, and Plumbing, we emphasize the importance of correctly sizing your HVAC system. Our expert technicians consider factors such as:

  • Home size and layout
  • Insulation quality
  • Window placement and type
  • Local climate conditions

By taking these factors into account, we ensure that your new AC installation or furnace replacement is perfectly suited to your home’s needs.
