Proper sizing is crucial for your AC. An oversized or undersized system will deliver poor energy efficiency. The system is also more likely to demand frequent repairs. Some of the typical signs your AC system is either too small or too large for your home include:

THE AC CYCLES OFTEN OR RUNS CONTINUOUSLY: This probably means your AC is either too large or too small for your home. Frequent cycling or continuous running creates a strain on your system and increases your energy consumption.


HOT AND COLD SPOTS: A properly sized cooling system will deliver even cooling throughout your home. If the unit is too large or too small, the air won’t circulate properly to the further reaches.


THE HOME IS HUMID: Your AC cools your home and also dehumidifies the air naturally. If you have an improperly sized system, it can’t dehumidify properly, leaving your home feeling uncomfortable, sticky, and stuffy.
