SEER Rating & Energy Efficiency
The seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) measures the annual energy efficiency and consumption of a unit’s cooling ability in normal day-to-day use. The higher the SEER value, the less energy the unit will utilize. Older residential units may have SEER values in the 10 range or less.
The good news for homeowners looking for new AC or heat pump replacement is that a new unit could boost SEER values to 25 or higher. Higher SEER units are usually less costly to run, which brings financial savings to homeowners.

Real HVAC Questions from Real Birmingham Homeowners
Not sure what’s going on with your HVAC system or if it’s time for an upgrade? Here are some of the most common questions we get from homeowners across Central Alabama, answered with the clarity you deserve.
You should schedule HVAC maintenance twice a year—once in the spring for your cooling system and once in the fall for heating. These tune-ups help catch small issues before they turn into expensive problems.
Regular service also boosts energy efficiency, extends system life, and ensures your home stays comfortable through seasonal shifts. If you’re part of one of our maintenance plans, we’ll handle the reminders and scheduling for you.
Most HVAC systems last between 10 to 15 years, but that depends on how often they’re maintained and how hard they’ve been working. A well-maintained system with proper airflow and clean filters can easily last closer to 20 years.
On the flip side, systems that are neglected or oversized/undersized for the home often wear out faster. If your system is over a decade old and giving you trouble, it may be time to start considering replacement options.
Start with the basics: change your air filter every 1–3 months and keep your vents and returns clean. If your home has high humidity, stale air, or allergy issues, you may benefit from whole-home solutions like air purifiers, dehumidifiers, or upgraded filtration systems.
It’s also worth checking your ductwork—leaks, dust buildup, or mold inside your ducts can seriously impact air quality. Our team can assess your system and recommend the best upgrades for cleaner, healthier indoor air.
This issue, known as short cycling, can be caused by a range of problems, such as a clogged air filter, an improperly sized system, low refrigerant, or a malfunctioning thermostat.
When your system turns on and off too often, it not only fails to properly regulate temperature but also puts extra wear and tear on the equipment. Ignoring it can shorten the lifespan of your system and spike your energy bills. A professional inspection can determine the cause and get your system back to normal.
If your system is under 10 years old and the repair is minor, fixing it is usually the best move. But if it’s over 12–15 years old, needs frequent repairs, or isn’t keeping your home comfortable, replacement might save you money long-term.
New systems are more energy-efficient, which can lead to lower utility bills. We’re happy to provide an honest assessment and help you weigh your options.
