Case Study – Heat Pump Installation by Frosty’s AC
Frosty’s AC on January 18 replaced an existing AC System with a refrigerant leak in the Evaporator Coil of Air Handler. The old AC System was approximately 15 years old and using R22 (Freon) refrigerant. The R22 refrigerant will be withdrawn from marketing on December 2019. The old system was a 12 SEER energy rating. The decision was made to buy and install a new energy efficient Heat Pump with a 15 Seer rating. The reasons to justify the new system are:
- Likely to Breakdown due to the System’s Age
- Some Parts are not Available
- Refrigerant Leak requires the Evaporator Coil Replacement
- R22 (Freon) Refrigerant will be Unavailable Dec. 2019
- AC Prices are Rising – last year there were five price increases
- New AC Technology has Greater Reliability
- Energy Efficiency with a 15 SEER rating may be up to $150 savings per month
- Worry-free AC Operation for Many Years with a Full 10 Year Warranty
- Same Day Install with Heating or Cooling Working
- Planning the AC Replacement in the Winter Months is a Better Deal
