Have you ever heard of a high velocity heating and cooling system? Until about two years ago, I had never heard of such a thing.
It wasn’t until I called in an HVAC consultant that I learned about high velocity air conditioning.
I also learned that high velocity heating and cooling is a viable option for my small little house built during the 1920s. What made me decide to get high velocity AC? Here are some of the advantages that I have discovered in this little-known type of heating and cooling system. Number one. It saves energy. High velocity heating and cooling systems for a bunch of heated or cooled air into a space at a much faster rate than a traditional central ac system. The large ductwork that comes with a central heating and cooling system is a place where a lot of the heating and cooling is lost to the outside world. All that surface area provides the opportunity for your heated and cooled air to disappear. With a high velocity system, though, you will discover that the surface area of the ductwork is so small that there is little opportunity for the heating and cooling. If you happen to have an older home, like I do, that has nothing but window air conditioning units, a high-velocity AC system is much easier to install than a traditional Central Heating and Air. The miniature ducts can also run below floors, inside walls, and in many other tight spaces? All units in a high velocity system are versatile and flexible enough to be easily installed in any place, even closets, attics, and basements.
