Air-conditioning advancements have made it easier to escape from the muggy summer heat and customize the settings in your home during certain times of the day. The latest technology can even let you program your thermostat from your cell phone or computer so that you can walk into your ideal temperature as you arrive home. You can also adjust indoor humidity from afar when the heat index is unbearable.

What efficiency level is right for your home?

From lower utility bills to tax savings, there are many things that consumers should keep in mind. Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) is a standard measurement of efficiency, similar to miles per gallon ratings on a car.

Buying an air conditioner with a higher SEER rating can help you save money each month on your utility bills. Some systems can even qualify you for a government tax credit. Since 2006, the minimum efficiency available on new air conditioners is 13 SEER with some companies offering up to 20 SEER and above.

R&B will help you determine what system is right for your home.

To help keep your family's air healthy, look for a high-quality, high-efficiency, whole-home air purifier to add your heating and cooling system. The right device can clean and protect the air you breathe by filtering and killing potentially harmful indoor pollutants.

Cooling Older Homes

If you live in an older house, your cooling system probably uses a coolant or refrigerant called R-22, commonly known as Freon® which is an ozone-depleting refrigerant scheduled to be phased out beginning in 2010. Today, there are environmentally sound alternatives like Puron® refrigerant that won't deplete the ozone layer. If you are in the market for a new air conditioner, you will want to be sure you're getting Puron refrigerant in your new system.
