The Benefits Of Installing A Second Air Conditioner
Consistent Home Temperature
One of the main benefits of installing a second air conditioner in a two storey home is creating a consistent air temperature. In homes with multiple levels, different areas of the home tend to cool more quickly than others. For example, upstairs is often warmer than the downstairs as heat rises, preventing a consistent air temperature throughout the home.
Adding a second air conditioner can help to regulate air temperatures throughout the house, eliminating hot spots for a more comfortable environment.
Energy Efficiency
Installing a second air conditioner can also increase energy efficiency and reduce running costs. This is because the two air conditioners will be able to work together to easily cool a larger area, as opposed to an undersized air conditioner that would be working much harder and less efficiently to do so on its own. This will reduce wear and tear on your air conditioner, extend its lifespan, and reduce the risk of repairs or breakdowns.
Additionally, having two air conditioners means that you have more control over your energy usage as you can choose to turn on one or both as needed. In a two storey home, this means that you can turn on only the downstairs air conditioner if the upstairs space isn’t in use rather than having to choose between all or nothing.
Reliable Cooling For Summer
Another benefit of installing a second air conditioner unit is that it ensures you have a reliable source of cool air for the summer. As the hotter months of the year are when air conditioners are used most, it is far more likely for your air conditioner to breakdown in the middle of summer than other times of the year.
However, summer is also the busiest time for air conditioning technicians. This means that if your air conditioner breaks down unexpectedly you could be waiting months or even weeks before someone can come out to fix it. In the sunny state of Queensland, this can be disastrous, let alone if you have children or elderly family members or have planned social gatherings in this time.
Having a second air conditioner ensures that you will have a backup for when an unexpected breakdown occurs, rather than having to live without air conditioning entirely. Additionally, as having a second AC unit will help cool your home more efficiently, there will be less strain on your air conditioner, reducing the risk of a breakdown in the first place.
