Frequently Asked Questions

What Do the Best Central Air Units Have in Common?

The best units on the market are efficient, operating on minimal electricity to keep utility bills down. They provide steady, dependable performance year after year when properly maintained. In addition, sound systems are quiet, long-lasting, and low in service needs.

How TO Ensure My Unit is the Right Size?

Air conditioner units that are too small won't keep your home sufficiently cool. But many don't realize that a large system will cycle (turn on and off) more than necessary, wasting expensive energy and possibly putting undue strain on the compressor. Our team will determine the optimum size for your home by carefully studying your cooling requirements, window dimensions/exposure, floor plan, insulation, and local climate.

Which Air Conditioners Are Energy Efficient?

Much like automobile manufacturers, today's air conditioner manufacturers are required by law to evaluate and rate their equipment according to its energy efficiency (rating system is SEER: Seasonal Energy Efficiency Rating). The higher the SEER, the more efficient the equipment. Most new homes with central air come equipped with a standard model, but property owners can upgrade their air conditioning by specifying a more energy-efficient system. High SEER models are generally more expensive, but can easily make up the difference by reducing your home energy bills over the long run.

Are Some Air Conditioners Built Better Than Others?

The compressor is the heart of a condensing unit. On a hot day, it works long and hard. Hackney Inc. only installs brands with the highly advanced scroll compressor in every condensing unit. The industry recognizes Scroll Compressors as the leader in reliability, efficiency, and quiet operation. Other features include louvered steel cabinets that protect the coils from damage and expensive repair bills.

What do Good Furnaces Have in Common?

The best furnaces are efficient and keep your home warm and comfortable effectively. They provide steady, dependable performance year after year and are quiet, long-lasting, and low in service frequency and cost.

Tips to Beat the Heat

Which Furnaces are Energy Efficient?

Energy-efficient furnaces significantly reduce the loss of heat with a blanket of insulation that lines the inside of the furnace cabinet walls.

In addition, all Furnaces feature an induced-draft blower that works in conjunction with a hot surface ignition system to pull hot gases through the heat exchanger at a constant and controlled rate of flow. As the burner cycles off, the draft blower stops, keeping the heating air in the system.

Pilot lights also can be wasteful. The electric ignition in many newer furnaces eliminates the need for a constantly burning pilot. This feature alone gives up to 6% higher efficiency. And in combination with an induced-draft blower, it can improve furnace efficiencies by over 20%.

A high-efficiency furnace generally wears a higher price tag, but it can make up the difference by reducing operating costs over the long run. And with today's consumer interest in efficiency, such equipment enhances the bottom line of your home.

Are Some Heat Pumps Better Than Others?

Naturally, energy efficiency is important. But when making your selection, remember low operating costs are little comfort if service and repair bills are high. Don't be sold on energy efficiency alone.

What Should I Know About SEER and HSPF?

The Department of Energy requires all air-conditioning and heating equipment manufacturers to evaluate and rate the efficiency of their equipment on a seasonal basis. These ratings are known as the SEER, or Seasonal Energy Efficiency Rating, for air conditioners and the HSPF, or Heating Seasonal Performance Factor, for heating equipment.

Heat pumps use both numbers. The higher the SEER or HSPF rating, the more efficient the heat pump. High-efficiency units cost more, but since operating costs are lower, the payback period is typically shorter than expected.
