Where do most HVAC installations go wrong? Usually before the first wrench turns, when someone matches the new tonnage to the old nameplate and skips the math. At Kenner HVAC, the math comes first. We build a load calculation for your Kenner, LA home from its square footage, insulation levels, windows, orientation, and air leakage, because sizing errors in either direction cost comfort and money every day the system runs. From there the job becomes three connected pieces of work: equipment matched to the load, ductwork able to deliver what that equipment produces, and a commissioning process that proves the result on the meter instead of on paper.
Most of our service calls are for AC Repair and Furnace Repair. Start there if your system isn't running right.
Warning Signs for HVAC Installation
Recognizing the warning signs early can save you time and money. Keep an eye out for the following clues:
- Cold-but-clammy summers, a classic sign the system is oversized
- Rooms that never reach temperature no matter how the vents are adjusted
- Equipment loud enough to hear over conversation
- The system still runs phased-out R-22 refrigerant
- The system in your home is more than twelve to fifteen years old
- Utility bills rising each season as comfort slips
- An addition or renovation the existing system was never sized for
- Big repairs on both the heating and cooling side, one after another
Early Action Saves Money
Most HVAC failures start small, a weak capacitor, a squealing blower, a system that runs a little longer each week. Don't wait, call (504) 531-6160 and we'll take a look right away.
