FAQs
What is a high-SEER air conditioning system, and why is it beneficial in Ocoee’s climate?
SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) rates how efficiently an air conditioner converts electricity into cooling over an entire season. The higher the SEER number, the less energy the unit needs to deliver the same amount of cooling. In hot, humid areas like Ocoee, your AC runs for many hours a day; choosing a system with a SEER rating of 16–25 can cut energy use by 30-50 % compared with older 10-SEER units, improve indoor comfort through better humidity control, and reduce carbon footprint.
How much can I save on my energy bills by upgrading to a high-SEER AC unit?
Savings depend on your current system’s efficiency, home size, insulation, and thermostat habits, but homeowners in Ocoee moving from a 10-SEER unit to an 18-SEER model typically see $400-$700 in annual electricity savings. Over a 10- to 15-year lifespan that can exceed $5,000, often offsetting most of the upfront price difference. Our technicians provide a personalized cost-of-ownership report during your estimate so you can see the payback period for your home.
Does High-Seer Systems handle local permits, rebates, and utility paperwork for installations in Ocoee?
Yes. Orange County requires mechanical permits and, in some neighborhoods, HOA approval before replacing an AC system. We pull all permits, schedule the county inspection, and provide you with copies for your records. We also file rebate forms for Duke Energy and federal tax credits (up to $2,000 on qualifying high-efficiency heat-pump systems) so you don’t have to worry about the paperwork.
How long does a typical high-SEER air conditioner installation take?
Most straight cool or heat-pump change-outs are completed in one day—about 6-8 hours—including removal of the old equipment, setting the new condenser, replacing the air handler/coil, brazing refrigerant lines, vacuum and charge, thermostat setup, and commissioning. Complex jobs that require duct modifications or an upgraded electrical circuit can extend to two days; we’ll give you a detailed timeline before work begins.
What maintenance is required to keep my high-SEER AC running efficiently?
High-SEER systems rely on variable-speed compressors and advanced electronics that should be inspected twice a year. Our Precision Tune-Up includes coil cleaning, refrigerant level check, airflow measurement, thermostat calibration, drain-line flush, and software diagnostics. Homeowners should also change filters every 30-60 days, keep the outdoor condenser clear of debris, and use a smart thermostat to avoid excessive cycling.
Are financing options available for high-SEER AC replacements?
Absolutely. We partner with Synchrony and Wells Fargo to offer 0 % APR plans for 18 months and low-interest terms up to 120 months on approved credit. Financing can cover equipment, labor, permits, and even ductwork, allowing you to start saving on utilities immediately while spreading out the investment over time. Our comfort consultants can submit your application and usually get an approval decision in minutes.
