Luckily these improvements often qualify for special financing.
Want to finish attic reconfigure ac high efficiency system.
Attic hvac systems save space.
An outdoor unit which houses the fan condenser and compressor and an indoor unit which holds the evaporator and fan.
I have a 15 year old heart pump system actually 1 on each side of the house with vents in the slab.
Paying for the project.
In most cases you can actually save money by having an hvac contractor install a free standing high efficiency hvac unit in the new attic space rather than tapping into your existing hvac system.
Most updated central air conditioned homes have a new air conditioner split system meaning the ac is broken up into parts.
So why put an hvac system up in the attic at all.
I want to put in new heat pumps in the attic.
Converting your attic into usable finished space can increase the value of your home by maximizing the available square footage.
But with proper ventilation you can at least bring those temperatures down to match that of the outdoor air.
Unless you have a finished attic you probably aren t fond of spending time up there during a hot summer day.
I don t understand can you please help explain this to me.
If your home is smaller than other homes in your area or simply lacks the necessary amount of storage or living space for your family finishing your attic is a relatively inexpensive way to increase your usable space.
I thought it was all one unit.
Well mainly it s a way to save space.
The hvac contractor is saying i need to put condensers on the outside with the pump in the attic.
These roofs also keep the attic cooler than the outside temperature and in turn lower the need for air conditioning in the living spaces.
