Creating a Movement in HVAC
On average, the typical U.S. air conditioning system will last about 12 to 16 years. As a result, the average homeowner will only need to purchase a few of these in their lifetime. The continual change of government regulations, introduction of new technologies and industry-specific acronyms like SEER, HSPF, and AFUE can quickly become overwhelming.
That’s where we come in – to provide free and trustworthy answers that help guide homeowners, contractors and facility managers to make sound HVAC decisions.
We are dedicated to providing helpful information for homeowners, industry professionals and business owners (primarily in North America, though about 20 percent of our visitors are from other regions). For the most part, the authors are employees or affiliates of Copeland, a business focused on providing quality, technology-based equipment and services to meet the needs of the air conditioning, heating, and commercial refrigeration industries. However, we welcome comments and contributions from others.
