Matched cooling system

The indoor and outdoor equipment need to work as a system

A central air conditioner is not only the condenser outside. The indoor coil, furnace or air-handler blower, refrigerant circuit, electrical supply, thermostat and condensate drainage all affect performance. Natural Resources Canada recommends replacing an old indoor coil with one matched to the new outdoor unit when replacing a split central AC system.

Correct capacity matters

Oversizing is not a shortcut to better cooling. A system that is too large can satisfy the thermostat quickly without running long enough for even comfort and humidity control, while an undersized system may struggle during design conditions. Proper selection is based on the cooling load and system design.

Air conditioning installation FAQs

Questions before replacing your air conditioner

How do I know when air conditioning replacement makes sense?

Replacement may make sense when age, reliability, repair history, comfort and equipment condition make continued repairs less practical.

How is the right air conditioner size determined?

The right air conditioner size depends on the home, cooling load, airflow and comfort needs. Replacing an old unit with the same size is not always the best choice.
