Why You Should Consider a Solar A/C System in Edmonton
Summer is finally on the way and with it comes air conditioning and any needed maintenance to your system.. In the era of sustainable thinking and living, how to decrease that cost in a greener way is a priority to many Edmonton homeowners. The question is this: When will someone create an air conditioning system that can keep our house cool 24/7, and not have to worry about higher energy costs or the impact on the environment?
The answer is a solar assisted air conditioner. Now Rob's Albertan Service Experts knows what you’re thinking – “It’s going to be a thing of the future, maybe another five years at least.” Believe it or not… it’s already here, right now… today! We are happy to share with you the first integrated solar-assisted residential heating and air conditioning system: The SunSource™ Comfort System from Lennox®:
Eco-Friendly
The industry’s leading solar-assisted central heat pump combines solar energy and electricity to noticeably decrease home electric usage. Chlorine-free R410A refrigerant provides outstanding comfort without incurring a costly environmental toll.
ENERGY STAR® Qualified
The system meets or exceeds U.S. EPA guidelines for energy efficiency. This air conditioning and heating system also qualifies for a federal tax credit to reduce your expense; visit the ENERGY STAR website to learn more. Don’t forget to check with your local utility provider for any province tax credit opportunities.
Tremendous Comfort & Energy Efficiency
Efficiency ratings of up to 18.20 SEER and 9.70 HSPF can save you significant dollars each year compared to a standard heat pump. A single solar panel offers freely available climate-friendly energy to counterbalance the electric usage of the heating and cooling system. A two-stage scroll compressor operates at low speed the majority of the time, which means it’s inexpensive to operate and results in more consistent comfort. Finally, it’s specifically built to work with a Humiditrol® whole-home dehumidification system for added comfort control.
Quiet Operation
The SilentComfort™ fan grille utilizes patent-pending, vortex-suppression technology to lessen the noise of airflow exiting the unit, providing a virtually silent environment. A fully insulated compressor compartment uses vibration-isolating mounts to soften the operating sound, thereby exhibiting low sound pollution.
Reliable Performance
Constructed of heavy-gauge, pre-painted steel and tested in the most extreme environments to ensure top durability, the system also comes with the original onboard cooling system diagnostic device, the Lennox® System Operations Monitor, which always monitors system performance and promises steadfast operation and fast troubleshooting. A 10-Year Limited Warranty on compressor and all remaining covered components (excludes the solar panel).
Final Factors
SunSource™ is the first product a Edmonton homeowner needs to consider when exploring an air conditioner or HVAC system replacement (the second being a hybrid home comfort system). Although heat pumps are not for use in every region of the country, the environment-friendly features of the SunSource Comfort System make it the preferred system for today’s energy and cost-conscious families.
