Why SEER2 Ratings Matter for Albemarle Homes

North Carolina's climate — with average summer temperatures in the 90s and high humidity — means your AC system works overtime from May through September. Choosing the right SEER2 (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio 2) rating directly impacts your monthly energy bills and long-term comfort. The new SEER2 standard, effective January 2023, provides a more accurate measure of real-world cooling efficiency.

SEER2 Guide for Albemarle Homeowners

  • SEER2 14-15: Meets minimum federal requirements. Good budget option for Albemarle homes.
  • SEER2 16-17: Excellent balance of efficiency and value. Recommended for most Stanly County homes.
  • SEER2 18+: Premium efficiency. Best long-term savings for homes running AC heavily through NC summers.

Our Albemarle AC Installation Process

Every AC installation begins with a thorough home assessment. We evaluate your home's square footage, insulation, ductwork condition, window placement, and existing electrical capacity to recommend the perfectly sized system. An oversized or undersized AC unit leads to inefficiency, higher bills, and shortened equipment life — that's why proper load calculations matter.

Our installation team handles everything: removing your old system, installing the new indoor and outdoor units, connecting refrigerant lines, verifying electrical connections, and performing a complete system test. Most residential installations in Albemarle are completed within a single day.
