Hvac Packaged Seer
Tuesday, October 4th, 2011What size of hvac do I need for my 1400 sq ft home.?
I found a good deal on an Amana 13 seer 2.5 ton packaged system. I do plan to put all dual pane windows in. Walls are not insulated but the ceiling has loads of it. 12' vaulted ceiling in a 350 sq ft living room. Sacramento California summer avg 85-107 temp winter avg 25-65. Thanks for your help!
2.5 ton should be sufficient but it also depends on the # of windows you have Your local HVAC contractor should be able to do load calculations to determine tonage. You dont want to over size the unit or you will have a humidity problem if you under size it the unit will not keep up in the peek of the day . There are a lot of factors to determine exact sizing but 2.5 would work for the average application
