Challenge<\/h2>\n

This Raleigh, NC, homeowner\u2019s old HVAC systems operated since the construction of the home in 1976. As the equipment aged, efficiency was reduced, which led to higher operating costs.<\/p>\n

The outdated metal ductwork had reduced airflow due to poor design, and air leaks were found at multiple joints in the attic and crawl space.<\/p>\n

Solution<\/h2>\n

Our project manager performed a load calculation to determine the correct tonnage needed for the home. Our installation team removed the old equipment and metal ductwork from the crawl space and attic.<\/p>\n

Then, they installed the new air conditioners<\/a>, coils, gas furnaces<\/a>, and duct systems<\/a>. The new energy-efficient equipment and the updated duct design will greatly reduce the homeowner\u2019s operating costs.<\/p>\n
